Hi everybody,
I'm facing a problem with Zotero since yesterday.
While trying to add a citation in Word, an error page displaying: "The current citation has been modified after its creation by Zotero. Do you want to mantain its change and prevent future updates?"
Selecting yes Zotero will not be able to update this citation if other citations will be added, the style should change or the element is referred to should be modified. Selecting no every change would be lost" appears. (This is a personal translation from Italian).
I'm struggling with this problem because I am not finding how to fix it.
Can someone help me with this?
Thanks in advance

    That message means exactly what it says—the citation has been manually modified in Word (e.g., adding a prefix or page number, removing the authors). (Rarely, this message might also appear if you are using track changes,) Manual modifications prevent Zotero from updating the document automatically. You should click “No”, then re-enter any page numbers, prefixes, etc. using the fields in the Zotero Add/Edit Citation window.

    See “Customizing Cites” here: https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_usage
