FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Only the author and year are shown in the footnote, but no keyword/short title! The style is wrong!
The style is based on the guidelines and requires SHORT TITLE (see 3.2 in the guidelines). The style is programmed to do exactly that. So that the style can also display the short title text needs to be available. In most cases, the short title must be entered manually, as metadata from internet sources do not normally contain short titles. So please check first whether the short title has also been entered correctly in your citation software.

Mendeley user and the short title is not displayed?
Mendeley does not display all input fields. These can be added under Tools -> Options -> Document Details for the respective entry type.

Which item type should I choose and how should I enter the metadata to get the right output?
To make things a little easier for you, I am providing you with the following public library, which should help you how to enter the data accurately in order to get the correct representation in footnotes and bibliography.
https://www.zotero.org/groups/2583327/fom_zitierbeispiele/library

How can I generate a separate bibliography for internet sources?
The guidelines stipulate that a separate list of internet sources must be created. I have made this easier for you by programming the style that internet sources are automatically placed at the end of your bibliography. At the very end of your work, when you want to print and hand in your thesis, you can then make a copy of the document (very important!!), then unlink the citations (is not reversible) and add a new heading above your internet sources.

The line spacing between entries in the bibliography is incorrect.
The guidelines call for single line spacing between entries and 1.5 spacing between letters.
The spacing between entries is already set by style, but can also be changed in the Word style template "Bibliography" >> Paragraph.
The spacing between letters, A > B, is technically can technically NOT be implemented.

"vgl./cf." is missing? How can I do that?
This can be added in Zotero using the Prefix field. To do this, click on the citation in Word and a field will appear to add the pre- and suffix, as well as the exact page you want to cite. See the following guide on how to do this.

My footnote numbering style is incorrect. How can I change it?
The footnote numbering is NOT managed by the citation style, but by Word. You can therefore change this yourself in Word. The citation style has no control over this. Please seek Word-specific help for this.

What are the differences between the 4 files I can download?
One file is the author-date stylewhich will cite in-text in the style of "(Kirmsse et al., 2014)". The other 3 are footnote styles, which differ only slightly. One has eliminated the "ibid" function, the "Webpage variant" shows the URL for web pages in the footnotes and the last one is the normal one, which also outputs web pages like normal citations, which I will be the style used by most users.

How can I format legal texts in the bibliography without citing them in the footnotes?
The guidelines stipulate that legal texts should only appear in the body text and not in the footnote. So cite such sources manually in the text and the sources from Zotero can then be inserted separately using ‘Add/Edit Bibliography’.

How do I get the right format for laws and case law?
The ‘amended by law of the date’ is entered in the extra field as follows: submitted: 22-12-2011
The page reference for jurisdictions is entered in the extra field as follows: pages: 593-605

Found an error?
With complex styles such as this, it can easily lead to discrepancies in special cases. Please consult the citation guidelines first and use a working example to check whether the data is entered correctly in Zotero. If it still looks like the style itself has an error, please write to me via citationstyler@gmail.com.

Sonja

Dieser Zitierstil für die FOM ist ein echter Gamechanger, und eine enorme Zeitersparnis!

Der Stil ist aktuell und wird auch ständig aktualisiert. Die Installation und Nutzung ist kinderleicht, und die umfassende Unterstützung mit Anleitungen und Beispielen ist super hilfreich. Patrick hat mir auch mit einem kleinen Problem innerhalb von Minuten geantwortet. Das kriegt man heute nicht mehr.
Für 39,99 € ist es jeden Cent wert. Sehr empfehlenswert für alle FOM-Studierenden!

C.H.

Beste Investition! Ich wünschte, ich hätte es schon vor Abschluss meines Studiums entdeckt. Wirklich easy zu nutzen und super Kundenservice! 🙂

Tobi

Der FOM-Standard ist perfekt umgesetzt, eine super Zeitersparnis bei allen wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten! Bei einem Problem bzw. einer Frage kam die Antwort innerhalb von 15min – ein super Kundenservice.
Der Standard lässt sich leicht einfügen und super nutzen.

Mateusz

Hat sich gelohnt. Jeder, der an der FOM studiert braucht es und die Investition von knapp 40 EUR sind es zu 100% wert.

Bennet

Als FOM Studierender sehr zu empfehlen. Einfach zu nutzen und sehr schneller und guter Kundenservice

FAQs


Is the payment secure?

Yes, payment is processed via Stripe, one of the largest payment providers.

How fast is the style delivered?

Immediately! Once you have made the correct payment, you can download the file(s) directly from the order confirmation page and get started. You will also receive an email with the download link.

How can I apply for a refund?

Since my citation styles are digital products and I therefore have no way of "taking back" the product, returns are NOT possible.

How can I install the provided .csl style in Zotero?

Option 1: Double click on the file. Zotero should automatically recognise and install the .csl file.

Option 2:In Zotero, go to "Edit" > "Preferences" > "Cite" > "Styles". Click on the "+" and select the .csl file.


For other programs, please consult the documentation of the respective provider.

I'm not sure if this is the right style.

You can write to me at any time and I will be happy to check your guidelines. The best way to do this is to use the Your Custom Citation Style form, as I will then have all the information immediately to hand.


Do the styles work with Citavi or EndNote?

No. CSL is supported by a number of programmes such as Zotero, Mendeley, Papers etc., but both Citavi and EndNote have their own systems and my CSL styles are not comptabile.

(Please pay attention to this, as a return is not possible.)


Where can I get support?

If you have a problem with the correct data entry or find an error, simply use the contact form or send a short email with the name of the style and date of purchase to citationstyler@gmail.com .

I cannot provide support for the correct use of an individual citation software. Please contact the manufacturer of the reference programme.

Further questions are answered in my general FAQ .
