Upgrade Storageodd disambiguation/failed citation update
before I "complain" about a problem, let me first congratulate the developers for the new version. I quite like the new quick-format citation, it's much faster and more straightforward.
I have just come across something strange: I was citing two works by the same author, but one of the records had slightly misspelled a name. Oddly, Zotero treated both as the same and disambiguated them (2004a/b). The real problem, however, is that I have now corrected the record but it doesn't update in my document. I have closed/restarted both Firefox (9.0.1) and Libreoffice (3.4.3) and have deleted/re-inserted one of the citations in the document to no avail it keeps using the misspelled name. Any help would be much appreciated. Perhaps I should also add the titles in question are a book chapter whose author is also the editor of the same book which is the second citation.

fbennettHave you tried switching away to another style, and then back? That should constitute all of the data used for disambiguation. If that doesn't help, you might try copy-pasting the content of the document into a fresh one. If you still get the anomaly after that, my first guess would be that it's still finding the bad name somewhere in Zotero.

Gitty Kthanks, it first didn't seem to work, but after I deleted the citation's prefix it did.
