bold or italics for characters

  • Hi,

    We are using your (excellent!) plugin and we wish to customize a little bit. While academic references and articles are properly displayed, we would like to put the names of the authors in bold characters. How can we do that? Thanks in advance for your help.

  • I’m just another user, but are you looking to bold all the author names in every entry, or just the author whose page that is (Azimzadeh)?

    For the first, you can probably pick or create a new default style for your lists — for example, I can see that the format for Acta Orthop?dica Belgica emboldens all the author names. You can see all the available styles at https://www.zotero.org/styles and mouse over the titles to see how they render. This page on Zotero styles explains how they work and has links for requesting new styles or customizing your own.


    For the second you can use the “highlight” parameter in the publications shortcode to specify the author’s name — really any one string of characters — and make it appear in bold, as you can see with “Giddings” on https://sgiddings.scrippsprofiles.ucsd.edu/publications/

    Thanks very much for our time and the hints. In the meantime, I discovered the highlight function and it works quite well. I’ll keep the second solution just in case… my customer changes his mind!

    Take care

    I was wondering how you got the highlight function to work on multiple author names?
