Hi,
I’m having some issues with loading a custom CSL ( for the entry preview) on the following configuration:
JabRef 5.3–ArchLinux–3
Linux 5.10.42-1-manjaro amd64
Java 16.0.2
JavaFX 16+8
The CSL i’m using was modified using this website: Visual CSL Editor and it was made from a trusted CSL ( APA Universite du quebec a montreal.csl). I’m not sure what’s going on but I get “this preview cannot be generated” type of message. I’ve placed the file in the csl-styles folder and in the .jar container and the file is definitely loaded, but it is not able to interpret it. Also, I’ve tested the CSL style in Zotero and it works allright… I’m new to the CSL syntax so I don’t really understand where the problem might be…
The code of the file will be in two parts because it’s a bit too long, hope it helps.
Thank you!

. If you can’t identify WHY that part of the code is a problem, then post it here as well
