    Please solve this.
  • I think University of Notre Dame's new "CatalogPlus" catalog is Primo v.3, or at least some kind of Primo, and it hasn't been working for me. So I just went and added these lines to the Primo.js translator in detectWeb():


    else if (doc.evaluate('//div[@class="EXLCustomLayoutContainer EXLContent EXLBriefDisplay"]', doc, nsResolver, XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, null).iterateNext() ) {
    return 'multiple';
    }
    else if (doc.evaluate('//div[@class="EXLCustomLayoutContainer EXLContent EXLFullDisplay"]', doc, nsResolver, XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, null).iterateNext() ) {
    return 'book';
    }

    And it works fine for me now.
  • The primo translator should now work for all examples listed here and hopefully almost all primo catalog, with the exception of articles, which will still throw an error and for which I don't think we'll have an acceptable solution until primo provides RIS consistently, which I've heard is supposed to be the case for primo 4.
    I suggest we close this thread, new/other primo issues should be reported in separate threads.
  • Zotero does not work with the Primo search results at Boston University. For example, a book is not saved as a book; rather, it is saved as a generica "document."
  • By the way, the link to BU's library:

    www.bu.edu/library

    or

    http://buprimo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com:1701/primo_library/libweb/action/search.do?menuitem=2&fromTop=true&fromPreferences=false&fromEshelf=false&vid=BU
  • thanks for reporting. Quick fix, just something unusual in the way the display data.
    The translator fix is now up. Your version of Zotero will automatically update within 24hs, or you can update manually using the "Update Now" button in the "General" tab of the Zotero preferences.

    Any problems let us know.

    (we're aware that Primo won't work for articles and that it will display authors incorrectly, no need to report those).
