COinS are not recognized by connector

LiborA

I add on my page (www.ansorge.website) COinS data from my collection by using this code:

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.2.3.min.js"></script>
<div id="biblio"></div>
<div id="coins"></div>
<script>
$( "#biblio" ).load("https://api.zotero.org/users/1196880/collections/JVWI28V6/items?format=bib&itemType=-attachment&style=apa-cv&key=FyBV3cEsqkKhUKmDF3KqcXNy");
</script>
<script>
$( "#coins" ).load("https://api.zotero.org/users/1196880/collections/JVWI28V6/items?format=coins&itemType=-attachment&key=FyBV3cEsqkKhUKmDF3KqcXNy");
</script>

But Zotero Connector in Chrome does not recognize this COinS data. Translator in Firefox works correct.

I'm not seeing this working in Firefox either. In fact, I'm not seeing the COinS displayed when I look at the page source.

Interesting. It works this morning and now I do not see COinS in translators for this page.
The COinS is not (and was not) in the page source, but if you look in html in Firebug on <div id="coins"> you can see them. The second interesting issue is that on the page (in the collection) are 29 items, but COinS include only 24 items and if the "&itemType=-attachment" is not in script then COinS include only 19 items.

EDIT: Mendeley importer in Chrome still see COinS on my page

I change
<script>
$( "#coins" ).load("https://api.zotero.org/users/1196880/collections/JVWI28V6/items?format=coins&itemType=-attachment&key=FyBV3cEsqkKhUKmDF3KqcXNy");
</script>

to

<div id="coins" style="visibility:hidden;display:none">
<iframe src="https://api.zotero.org/users/1196880/collections/JVWI28V6/items?format=coins&itemType=-attachment&key=FyBV3cEsqkKhUKmDF3KqcXNy"></iframe>
</div>

And now connector recognise COinS tags. However there are still only 24 COinS tags instead of 29 :(

We may still not export COinS for all items -- have you tested exporting the same collection straight from Zotero?

LiborA

Yes, of course, export from Zotero works.

I have tried all item keys individually and it seems that only this key is problematic: 55WM9XTR
All other items are displayed by URL:

https://api.zotero.org/users/1196880/items/ITEM_KEY?format=coins&key=FyBV3cEsqkKhUKmDF3KqcXNy

But 55WM9XTR not, and because this key is in 25th place in the key list then others coins are not displayed too (I think).

On other hand https://api.zotero.org/users/1196880/items/55WM9XTR?format=bib&key=FyBV3cEsqkKhUKmDF3KqcXNy is OK.

I don't think the server generates COinS for the report item type at this time?

adamsmith

So does that mean the server uses an older version of Zotero for COinS export? We made that change to the export from Zotero (which is in the Zotero code, not in a translator for COinS) quite some time ago.

dstillman

Yes, translation-server still has an older version. This is more Simon's department, but I'll take a look later to see how easy it is to upgrade:

Chrome connector 4.0.29.11 has a problem with frames. I've added coins on project page http://heis.vuv.cz/data/webmap/datovesady/projekty/vodnistopa/default.asp in the Outputs ("Výstupy" in Czech). The individual project pages are opened in the frame by clicking on the menu in the right pane. The connector does not see the coins in the frame. If I open directly frame http://heis.vuv.cz/data/webmap/datovesady/projekty/vodnistopa/dokumenty/vystupy.asp then the connector recognise coins correctly.

adomasven

Translator detection doesn't run in frames for performance reasons. There are exceptions, but this does not apply to generic translators such as COinS.

(Using a frame-based navigation is also considered very old-school and wrong in a thousand ways. Something to perhaps consider)

LiborA

@adomasven I'll send your note about very old-school navigation to our webmaster. Maybe he will agree with you :-)
(but I do not think so)
