Do not automatically upload full-text of papers from Mendeley

7 jaar geleden • 0

When first using BibBase with Mendeley, I noticed that the full-text of my articles were made available. However, most of these articles are journal-formatted papers, subject to copyright. After searching these options, I could not figure out a way to deactivate this feature, which forces me to manually use the "BibTex" import instead of having it automatic from Mendeley. Would-it be possible to give the user the option to deactivate the automatic import of the full-text when using BibBase+Mendeley ?

Voltooid

Highlighting (e.g. boldfacing) own name.

7 jaar geleden • bijgewerkt door 7 jaar geleden • 4

Firstly, great tool.

Secondly, something I have previously done when manually maintaining an HTML list of publications was to bold my own name the list of authors. In genomics author lists can be pretty long and it's nice to be able to see at a glance where I'm listed! I'm sure this is true for those particle physicists at CERN etc. as well... Right now I'm hacking this by putting <b> tags around my last name in the bibtex: http://cs.stanford.edu/people/davidknowles/

Is there a more elegant solution?

Thirdly, +1 to more flexible citation styles.

Thanks for your hard work on this!

1. Thanks!

2. Yes, you can accomplish that with CSS. You just need to find a good CSS selector for yourself in the HTML, which is pretty easy, because bibbase turns your name into a link to the page itself. If you add this CSS to your page style it will work:

a.bibbase.author.link[href="http://cs.stanford.edu/people/davidknowles/"] {
  font-weight: bold;
}

3. What kind of citation style would you like to see?

Thanks for using BibBase!

Will it be possible to have a list of all variables that can be changed using css, to change the format of the publication list ?

CSS is actually self-documenting. Just open the source of the page you are editing, look for the elements you want to modify, and find a unique selector for them (e.g., using their class and/or tag name). This is actually not a BibBase specific question, so you should be able to find more help on that on the web.

Script to put a custom CSS style

7 jaar geleden • bijgewerkt door 7 jaar geleden • 1

Hello,

I created a custom style "bibbase.css". This is placed the bibbase folder that is located at the root of my site. When I put it in the following script I created a custom style "bibbase.css". This is placed the bibbase folder that is located at the root of my site. When I put it in the following script <script src = "https://bibbase.org/show?bib=address of the zotero database & jsonp = 1 & filter = year: 2017 & css = site address / bibbase / bibbase.css"> < Script>, nothing happens. The script to put a custom css is "& css = css file location"?

I forgot something to make it work?

If you are embedding your bibbase page into your own page, then you just need to add your css to your own page just like any other css, i.e., add

<link href="/bibbase.css" rel="stylesheet">

to the head in your html file.

Fold/unfold customization

7 jaar geleden • bijgewerkt 7 jaar geleden • 2

I'm using BibBase to display our group's publications list by year. Rather than folding/unfolding all years at once, I was wondering if the default view can be set to have the most recent year unfolded, while leaving the others folded for the user to open themselves? Let me know if this is doable. Thanks!

This is not directly supported, but if you know a little bit of javascript you can use that to accomplish it. Just make the default folded and then run toggleGroup('group_2017') some time after page load. Timing this right might be tricky though.

CSS seems to have no effect

7 jaar geleden • bijgewerkt door 7 jaar geleden • 1

I am new to CSS coding so this may be a stupid question but I am trying to follow your suggestions on the support forum to change the "type" headings. However, the CSS I wrote seems to have no effect:

https://bibbase.org/show?bib=https://www.dropbox.com/s/epjy4lodj36qfsl/scc.bib?dl=1&group0=type&nocache=1&https://www.dropbox.com/s/nucyj6u35zf0cwj/scc.css?dl=1&filter=keywords:SCC&theme=side#

Could you please let me know why?

THank you!

A CSS really only makes sense when you embed your BibBase listing in your own page. I see that you are embedding it in https://scc.okstate.edu/publications. You need to add the CSS file directly to the head of the HTML of that page, like you are doing with the other CSS files that are already referenced there.
