Bug: Zotero connector plugin saves erroneous year for tweets

Steps to reproduce:
1. Visit a tweet details page (e.g. https://twitter.com/Miss_Jellyby/status/425829776507416576 )
2. Click icon to import to Zotero

The date will be imported as "Wed, 22 Jan 202014 03:18:00 GMT" instead of the proper "Wed, 22 Jan 2014 03:18:00 GMT"

Chrome 35.0.1916.86, Zotero 4.0.20 for Mac, Zotero connector 4.0.8.2. I'm not sure if this exists in other versions of the connector because I've only tried it in Chrome.
  • Yep. The translator was assuming a two-digit year, and the typo wasn't picked up because the translator test fixture itself was expecting the extra "20" in front of the actual year.

    I've filed a fix. It should feed through soon, after the patch is reviewed (probably within a day or so).
  • Wonderful. Thank you!
  • fbennett's 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. If you're using Standalone, restart Zotero and your browser after updating.

    Any further problems let us know & thanks for reporting
