Sciencedirect PDF import not working
Dear all,
first my apologies if I have overlooked an obvious solution to the problem in the forum, I have now spent quite some time looking through all the posts and so far nothing seems to solve my problem.
When I get to an article on sciencedirect with automatic proxy redirection (e.g. http://www.sciencedirect.com.ep.fjernadgang.kb.dk/science/article/pii/S1053811917307280?via=ihub) and then click the Zotero download button, it attempts to download the pdf together with the article information, but always fails (red cross in the small pop-up window in the bottom right corner).
I have the most recent version of Firefox (57.0.1), Zotero (5.0.32) and Zotero connector (5.0.31), and I have updated the translators.
Happy to post the debug output logging for when I try to download a citation with pdf.
Best wishes,
David

Any further problems let us know & thanks for reporting.
the sciencedirect content recognition is faulty: the item
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S009913331830209X
which really is a journal article is recognized as a generic web page (so no journal title, author(s), doi, etc.).
and obvioulsy the PDF is not download(the same happens with OA articles with free PDF and with toll articles which i can read and download inside my university network).
any help ? (from the previous messages i understand that the guys at sciencedirect routinely change the behaviour of the website)
best
