While this will work (though not as well for Standalone), the Zotero Proquest translator should work without issues.
If you have any issues we would appreciate a report.
the problem had not changed. There is only a blue icon which saves web page information but not the usual import data button. I cannot get data from Proquest.
Hi If what I gave above is not a permalink or searchpath then I don't know what you need. I searched through Victoria University under "linguistics" for the name "McLaughlin", and Proquest appeared. In Proquest I used to get a yellow icon on the address bar, and if I clicked it there was a list of all the references on the page. I could then choose what I wanted and the whole reference would be inserted into Zotero. Now the Proquest format has changed (it used to look very basic) and since then there is no yellow Zetero icon. There is a rectangular blue icon in its place which says "Save to Zotero (embedded metadata)" which gives me no list of references and doesn't save information about them, only about the whole page. It is as if Zotero no longer notices that there are references on that page. so I have to add everything from Proquest manually. Thanks
thanks, that was helpful. We have a fix for this in the pipeline - I'll post here when it's up.
If you're in a big hurry I can tell you how to manually apply this, but we should have this out in a week.
well, that was fast - the fix has just been committed and will update in your version of Zotero in the next 24hs. You can manually and immediately update from the general tab of the Zotero preferences.

I have attempted the fix described by ajlyon and restarted Firefox. When I went back to the proquest page

Also, I don't understand the problem - what type of icon do you see where? Disregard anything upthread - there is no need to apply any manual fixes.
