"Manage styles" option missing when clicking "Add/edit citation" in Word

katdevine

When I click "add/edit citation" in Word for the first time, and the document preferences pane opens so I can select the citation style, at the bottom of this, there used to be an option to "manage style" if you needed to add a new one. This no longer happens. It also doesn't come up if you click "document preferences" in Word. I can add a new one from Zotero desktop itself, but if the option isn't coming back in Word, I need to know so I can update my teaching slides :)

can anyone shed any light on this please?

(devs will have to speak to this, but given past discussions this looks like a bug to me -- it's still there when you use right-click --> create bibliography and those two views should I think behave the same)

Just a bug in the beta. We'll fix — thanks. (@katdevine, be sure to note when you're referring to the beta.)

Thank you - I didn't know I was using a beta of anything, sorry :( But thank you for sorting!

If you don't want to be running the beta, you should reinstall Zotero from the download page. Your data won't be affected.

(But if you're comfortable using the beta and reporting bugs here, as you did, that's great.)

Thank you :) I don't mind using the beta, I just didn't realise that I was; I've had Zotero for years and just update it when I get a notification. It was just wanting to check, really, whether an option had been removed because I teach using Zotero to students and wanted to check whether my material was still up to date. Thanks for all your help! :)
