Target language selection #264

Open randoomkiller opened 3 years ago

randoomkiller commented 3 years ago

Hey! So what I think would be useful is, that if you could select what language should the target be. Like for example I study in the UK, and I am usually switching between Hungarian and English keyboards, I have most of my settings in English for the ease of use, but somehow when I were to create the citations, they had the "other" (author) and the "Volume" (of the journal) in Hungarian.

On the other hand thank you for your good work! The change between the old and the new site is really visible and opens up many possibilities.

Is this about the Zotero web library or ZoteroBib? This repo is for the latter. But note that feature requests and bug reports for either should be posted to the Zotero Forums, where we're best able to help.

I'd be open to offering a bibliography locale override for both the web library and ZoteroBib, with either a regular language drop-down (like the client uses for bibliographies) or one with an "Automatic (English)" option at the top to revert to automatic detection (like the client uses for its main language setting in the preferences).

Web Library already offers language dropdown when generating bibliography. ZoteroBib uses browser/OS language - I agree we could add a dropdown to allow overriding this automatic choice.

Oh no I f*ed up, I was wanting to write this issue to the https://cite.mickschroeder.com/, which uses your engine, but I prob missclicked. However I guess the automatic OS/Browser language is the same. Sorry!
