Has this been rejected or is this still possible? A search function has been a feature I've been wanting for a while now. I agree that using a normal ctrl-f search is somewhat functional, but it's mostly so if you know what you're looking for (I often use it when looking for a specific author, or a specific paper that I know by name).


Alternatively, having a search bar where users can search keywords in the title and author (as well perhaps as all abstracts, which is not currently possible to search within using ctrl-f at all unless a dropdown is expanded) would be very useful for those of us with quite large publication lists. I would also personally love an advanced search option, in which you could search within specific sections (i.e., searching keywords just within titles, or authors, etc.) use and/or and other functions, etc., but recognize that that is probably a more involved feature request that perhaps wouldn't benefit too many people.

I see, thank you. Would that carry over to the separate publication pages in this case with the URL label though, stopping it from transforming to "Url" there?

Hi Christian,

Sorry, but quick question:

Is it intentional that the first character of the url label is always capitalized?


I've noticed that other custom links, made through adding "url_slides" etc. to the bib file, will always come out with the first character capitalized in their hyperlinks on BibBase, and was thinking about making a post some time next week asking if this could or should be changed to match the rest of the stylistic lowercasing on BibBase, but I figured this might also actually be a question relevant here (as I noticed the same capitalization of the first character happens to the url label, e.g., when inputting urlLabel=url, this now looks stylistically consistent in the publication lists as "url", but is still transformed to "Url" in the separate pages, which looks a bit odd to me). Sorry if this is too nit picky, but I figured I'd mention it.

Thank you.

Hi Christian,

This is wonderful, and seems to work perfectly. Thank you so much! I very much appreciate you taking the time to do this, this is perfect for our needs.

Hi Christian,

This works well, thank you. Is there any way to have this option accepted for the direct publication links? E.g., https://bibbase.org/network/publication/kennickell-lindner-schrz-anewinstrumenttomeasurewealthinequalitydistributionalwealthaccounts-2022&urlLabel=url.


Appending it to one of those links currently results in a 404, as in the example above, so I assume these links do not currently take any additional parameters. It would be nice to have the direct publication links consistent with our publication list. We link directly to relevant references through their BibBase publication links when we use them as a data source for our research, but this is then of course (currently) a page out of our control (regarding formatting/styling) in comparison to the full publication lists we embed elsewhere in our site, which can be tweaked through URL parameters and CSS.

I figured we could perhaps adjust the paper link on our publication list through some CSS, but knew that this wouldn't affect the direct links, which are a concern for us as well, which is why I posted suggesting an overall change. If you don't want to implement the suggestions as the default that is of course fine, but then perhaps there could be an option for these links as well? And if those links were to accept the url parameter, then I assume if you appended &urlLabel=url to the publication list url it could append that same parameter to the direct publication links generated in that publication list for each reference.

Thank you,

Adam

Hi Christian,

I am aware of this option, I use it for other purposes, but I wouldn't change the base URL field in my references to something like "url_url = {}" because this would require my users who are downloading / copying the BibTeX to manually change all the URL fields to have them print in their citations.


I include "url_file = {title.pdf}" in my references as this is a field any TeX engine would ignore in creating the citation, and it is not something the user would want printed anyway (it is not a real link, only working on BibBase, which is fine), whereas the regular url field is something they may often want and is integral to the reference.


The user experience is particularly important to me in this case because the BibBase page is being used for a large public-facing database of existing research, so we want it to be as easy as possible for other researchers to download or copy the Bib information and use it in their own work (which BibBase does a good job at!).

Thank you for the quick response! This is very helpful. I will let you know if I have any further questions once I discuss with my coworker.

Hi Christian,


Thank you so much! It appears this is fixed. No worries about the delay of course.

Ok, thanks for looking into this, oh well! I'll figure out the best way to implement something like this in the titles in our library. Thank you.
