In text citations - google docs
Hi
I've just come across Zotero today, it looks amazing (anyone want to buy a fully licensed version of endnote off me?!). I've one problem though, I need it to insert in-text citations into google docs harvard style e.g. (Crilly, 1998). I know that it has the styles to do this, but whenever I drag and drop into a document it puts in the full bibliography reference. I've tried it set to all 3 Harvard styles available on your site, but it does the same with all. I'm sure there must be a simple solution, but I can't for the life of me find it!

The only way I could see around the problem is to hijack links and treat them as simlar to a field, but I'm not sure if that's even possible.
Many thanks.
It it is, and some of the shortcut keys still don't work, they might conflict with other shortcuts on your system. Try setting them to different keys.
Also, because they are already into the academic world (Scholar for example), will give them an edge. On top of that, the user percentage of Google products in the academic world is pretty high I think.
I dont think there is any shortcut, for generating in text citations.

but this has some limits as to what it can do in terms of suffixes, suppress authors etc.
