Report ID 1925897068: Cannot edit citations
I'm using Zotero standalone version 4.0.29.15 with Word 2016. When I try to edit a citation, I get an eror message that says "You must place the cursor in a Zotero citation to edit it." I click on the citation, attempt to edit, and get the same error message. I closed and reopened zotero and word, and restarted my computer, but this did not fix the problem. I saved it as a new document, and copied and pasted into a new document, and that did not help. I do not have the same problem in new documents. How do I fix this??
The behaviour you're observing generally indicates, that the underlying field codes that connect the citations to Zotero have been removed, which could have happened if the document was edited with an online Word processor, like Google Docs.
