This works for us.

Yep, that would work, I've added it to the code. The views support is still a moving target, so the same features are not guaranteed to exist yet.

The code is there, you might want to check the "admin/settings/biblio" page in the "BibTex" section to make sure that the feature is turned on.

Doh! Stupid mistake on my part, I'll fix that.

Ok, I've committed the fix.

This is now an issue with bibtex 6.x-1.15 and Views 6.x-2.14. The braces are removed correctly at /biblio, but not when displayed by Views.

The attached patch fixes it.

Hi anyone can help?

The problem that the {Protected Braces} still shows up on views on my website. I am using bibtex 6.x-2.0-beta3 and Views 6.x-3.0 and have enabled the "Retain bibtex's {Protected} capitalization in the title string, but hide the braces on display".

Adding the code suggested in this post in biblio_handler_citation.inc by hand shuts down the website. It throws erros "Queries taking longer than 5 ms and queries executed more than once, are highlighted."

Thank you in advance!

Hi Jane,
I haven't had a chance to look at the code, but it looks like the function

biblio_remove_brace()

is the ticket to solving things. The code in the patch I made is for bibtex 6.x-1.x, not the 6.x-2.x branch. You'll have to look at the patch in #11 for inspiration and adapt it for your version.

Hi ShaunDychko,

Thank you so much for your respond!

I have been debugging the module for the past couple of weeks and found out more about it.

All help welcome and most appreciated!
