Bibtex Key Problems after the updating to Zotero 5.0.30

annahase

Dear Forum Members,

i had the automatic updates enabled such that my Zotero updated to the new version this morning. I am currently writing my master thesis and am using Zotero in combination with TeXmaker. Normally when adding a new item I just generated a bib-tex key and then exported my library in the better-bibtex style once in a while with everything working nicely. After the update it is now impossible to generate any bibtex-keys and when I export the library all of my former citation keys are undefined although they're still saved in the extra field of the item. I would greatly appreciate any help since I have to hand that document pretty soon and am super puzzled about what to do. Many thanks in advance, Paula

Make sure that you have BBT installed in Zotero 5. Then, see if this thread helps: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/69423/citation-keys-changed -- otherwise, this seems like a BBT issue which the developer requests you report here: https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/issues

Thank you very much for your quick and helpful answer. I added the new plug-in and used the forum entry you referred to, to set up my citation key preferences. Now every thing works even nicer than before!
