Zotero's incorrect URL metadata for Eighteenth Century Collections Online (ECCO)

When extracting metadata for multiple ECCO documents at once, Zotero is inputting into my library incorrect URL metadata for all the ECCO documents. For example, the correct URL metadata for 1702, Calamy, 'An Abridgment of Mr. Baxter's History' is:

https://link.gale.com/apps/doc/CW0119658547/ECCO?sid=bookmark-ECCO&xid=7e29fc7d&pg=1"

But Zotero is inputting:

"https%3A%2F%2Flink.gale.com%2Fapps%2Fdoc%2FCW0118351132%2FECCO%3Fu%3Dcambuni%26sid%3Dbookmark-ECCO%26xid%3D31727c21"

The problem does not occur when I open the webpage of each individual ECCO document and extract its metadata one webpage at a time. But doing so is of course time consuming. Is there a way I can make the Zotero "batch-extraction" feature work on ECCO? It works fine on other websites like JSTOR, Proquest's EEBO, and the Internet Archive.
  • Any updates on the resolution of this issue with Zotero?
  • Thanks for reporting, and sorry for the delay. I've pushed a fix. Your Zotero Connector should auto-update within 24 hours, or you can update manually a few minutes from now by clicking Update Translators in the Advanced pane of the Zotero Connector preferences.
  • Thanks for this fix!
