Testing Translators on local system

I am building a web translate for my site. I know I can use Zotero Scafold to develop and test the translator.

However, I'd like to test it for other browser, such as Chrome, Safari and IE.

On my PC, I downloaded the Zotero standalone, and added connectors for Chrome, Safari. I then went to the directory C:\Users\myname\AppData\Roaming\Zotero\Zotero\Profiles\o9kybafq.default\zotero\translators and added mytranslator.js.

However, my translator does not seems to be recognized in Zotero. Is this the correct way to add new translator locally?

How do I do it for Mac?
  • Yes, that's the correct way. You'll need to restart Zotero and your browser after adding the translator, but then it should be recognized.

    Nothing different on a Mac.

    You can run debug in the connectors to see if Zotero is trying to run your new translator.
