"Add Item by Identifier" Problem with DOIs with components?
Hi,
I have been having problems with the Add Item by Identifier feature. When I enter some doi numbers there, I receive an error that says: "Zotero could not find a record for the specified identifier. Please verify the identifier and try again."
Under Report Errors, this appears as "[JavaScript Error: "No items returned from any translator"]."
What's strange is that I receive this message for some papers in an issue, but not other papers in the same issue. For example, the doi 10.1130/GES00840.1 works fine, but the doi 10.1130/GES00825.1 generates the error. All of these doi numbers resolve fine at doi.org and elsewhere.
When looking into this further, I noticed that all of the doi numbers that have component tagging (doi numbers assigned to supplemental files of the original article) are the ones failing, such as 10.1130/GES00859.1 and 10.1130/GES00820.1.
I asked CrossRef about this and they said the tagging appeared correct and they did not know why it would fail in Zotero. Any thoughts? The examples I provided are for the article-level doi, not the component tag.

So this is probably a problem with the depositing publisher.
The reason we fail without title is that it is in almost all cases indication of a more fundamental problem (though not here - here it's just a problem in the data).
