Export into BibTeX ignores the value of recursiveCollections

vitoshka
Hi,

Manually exporting a collection doesn't export sub-collections, no matter what's the value of rexursiveCollecitons.

This is Ubuntu Linux, FF12 with Zotexo 3.0.3

The same if I do programatically:

translator.setLocation(file);
translator.setTranslator('9cb70025-a888-4a29-a210-93ec52da40d4');
prefs.setBoolPref('recursiveCollections', true);
translator.translate();

I would appreciate a workaround for this, as I need it for this emacs synchronizer https://github.com/vitoshka/zotexo.

I am sure this was working before.

Thanks.

    Hi,

    I had the same problem (zotero 3.0.8; firefox 14.0.1; opensuse 12.1).

    I could fix it by adding the line
    "configOptions":{"getCollections":"true"},
    as new line 12 in
    ~/.mozilla/firefox/vd4cp9if.default/zotero/translators/BibTeX.js
    (where you will have to replace "vd4cp9if.default" with your firefox
    profile ID).

    Would be great this option gets (back) into the bibtex exporter.

    I have the same problem. Even when exporting from the menu inside zotero. The fix above didn't work for me.

    recursiveCollections option is set to true.

    Actually, setting "getCollections" as lst suggests does work for me now (don't know why it didn't seem to do so last year)

    I have added this to my (unofficial) BibLaTeX export translator.
