Hi Adam,

I see your point, and we've just added a new option urlLabel that you can use as a parameter in the bibbase url to overwrite "Paper" with any other string you think works better in your context, e.g., &urlLabel=URL. Please try it out and let me know if that solves your problem.

Thanks!

This seems to be an issue with your browser, since it is the browser who determines the mime-type based on the file extension. Which OS and browser do you use?

Hi Adam,

Have a look at https://bibbase.org/help#howdoiaddlinkstomypaperspdfsetc, it describes how you can change 'paper' to anything else you want it to be by adding a suffix to the url field, e.g.:

    url_Slides =   {talks/gau-hum-1830.ppt}

Hi Adam,

The components of the bibbase id are:

• lastname of the first 8 authors
• "etal" if more than 8 authors
• title
• year

Each such component is normalized by stripping any characters that aren't letters or digits and then converted to lower case.

Hi Baran,

I've checked the server log. It says:

error FetchError: request to https://maskor.fh-aachen.de/bibbase/pubs.bib failed, reason: unable to verify the first certificate

It seems that the signing authority that issued your server's SSL certification (DFN-Verein Global, Verein zur Foerderung eines Deutschen Forschungsnetzes e. V.) is not recognized by the http library we use, which is just the built-in http library of node.js. Indeed, curl says the same:

> curl https://maskor.fh-aachen.de/bibbase/pubs.bib
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
More details here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html

curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not
establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and
how to fix it, please visit the web page mentioned above.

I recommend getting a new SSL certificate from an authority that is widely accepted, e.g., a free one from Let's Encrypt.

Hi Adam,

Thanks for the detailed report with links and sorry for the delay. We found the bug that causes this and fix it, and I think I've checked all the cases you mentioned, please double check.

Best,

Christian

Hi Howcanoe,

Thanks for reporting this and for the suggestion. Do you have a page where I can see this problem in action?

Hi Frédérique,

You need to use the 

https://bibbase.org/zotero-group/:userID/:groupID

URL. In your case, your zotero id seems to be Sordello, so:
https://bibbase.org/show?bib=https://bibbase.org/zotero-group/Sordello/4622315

and

https://bibbase.org/show?bib=https://bibbase.org/zotero-group/Sordello/2233096
