Safari connector not working with BAILII

Kessanne · February 25, 2018

The Safari connector is not saving from BAILII, e.g. http://www.bailii.org/uk/cases/UKHL/1948/1949_SC_HL_1.html

I see the scales/case icon, but upon clicking it I get: "Saving to my library: An error occurred while saving this item". I've been following the instructions in Troubleshooting Issues with Zotero Translators, but still nothing.

I'm using Zotero connector 5.0.35 for Safari with Zotero 5.0.35.1 for Mac. The Debug ID is D802789657.

The same issue occurs with Firefox.

BaiLII has to be page-scraped, because they provide no structured metadata, and it's fragile - when they shift things around in their pages, things break, and we start over. I put in a request for structured data years ago, and got an earful ("The phrase 'tail wagging the dog' comes to mind," I was told.).

It might take awhile to clean up after them again, but we'll put it on the list.

Thanks for that. I was wondering if it had something to do with a change in Zotero because it used to work for me a couple of months back or so.

Any development on this? Still seems to be broken...
