prevent automatic updating of in-text citations and bibliography

karalnelson

I am adding new references to a long document that already has about 250 references. Each time I insert a new citation it takes Zotero several minutes to update. Is there any way to prevent this automatic updating, so that I can insert multiple references and then update all at once?

Yes, this feature is already written and will be released soon.

awesome! But I guess it's not available now, like today? Any idea when?

dstillman

It is not available today unless you build your own version of Zotero from that branch, no.

It still needs some additional testing, but there's a chance we'll have it in a beta version later this week.

wonderful, thanks

For now, your fastest workaround is to insert the citation into a blank document then cut and paste into your actual document.
