Ticket #1299 Google Books translator not grabbing publisher a problem in 1.0.9 also

Julia Thornton · March 15, 2009

Hi, I have been having trouble with translators for a couple of months now. On my Vista Laptop, I have used "administrator" to give myself as a user, full read write permissions which fixed a few major problems and have turned off Norton "Identity safe" which fixed a few more, but I still don't get place and publisher from the Google Books site translator. I note there is a ticket to fix this in Version 1.5, but not in Version 1.0.9. I am the second person to report this in 1.0.9 ( see also http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/5400/missing-publisher-field-in-google-books-site-translator/). I don't know about others but until 1.5 is out of Beta, I would prefer to go on using 1.0.9 for stability. Is this problem going to be corrected in 1.0.9?
Thanks.
JT

Yes. Updated translators get pushed to all clients.

Has this been fixed yet? I still am not able to get the publisher field from Google books. Thanks,

I wrote a new web translator that should fix this as well as some other problems. It hasn't made its way into Zotero yet though.
