Vancouver citation author-data alphabetical

luisiafalves

Hello,

I'm looking for a citation style that is vancouver, but has to be author-data and the bibliography sorted alphabetical.

At first I thought that the Journal Brain was what I was looking for, but somethings were not as they should be in the Vancouver style and.And, when I tried to change one of them using the other, it didn't work.

Can someone help me by making this style?
Thanks,
Luísia

what is this for?

It is for a postgraduate program of my university that asks for this style of citation in the final paper.188BET靠谱吗I tried to do, because i'm helping them to use more zotero, but i'm not managing to.Those tipes of changes.

I'm sorry, there just is no capacity to code styles for individual programs/departments.
There are some easy to follow instructions here:

and if you have specific questions we're happy to help, but that's it.

Thanks.Then I'll try again.

Can you tell me why i can't just copy the layout of the citation and bibliography from one to another?is there some kind of incompatibility of languages?

adamsmith

because they use macros ( ) that are defined in one style and not the other.If you find those macros ( ) and copy those, too, that should do it.It doesn't matter where exactly you copy them, but it needs to be among the other macros.

ahum...all right then.Thanks.

I have uploaded a style "Clinical Neurophysiology" to the repository.Check if that works for you, should be close.

It's perfect!Thanks a lot!I still didn't get what exactly I should have changed.
There isn't any tool that could make the changes on styles easier?

But again, thanks a lot!:D

luisiafalves

oh!and a doubt...the shouldn't be "author-data"?If i really understood how this works...

adamsmith

it should be thanks - doesn't change anything for how the style works (that information is just used for organizing the style on the repository), but I'll fix this.

development on a style editor for csl has just gotten a major boost:

thanks again^^ that really will make our lives easier:)

188BET靠谱吗And, another doubt, at the ABNT style it's asked the place from where the journal is and there is no field to include that information on zotero.I saw a discussion earlier at the forum and I didn't understood if you are planning of adding this field or not.
