All Citations on Page Unlink when Zotero Refreshes!

Hi there,
I submitted an error report 490787838 and a debug report D1641104167. I'm using zotero citation manager on google docs, and suddenly whenever I try to add a citation or refresh zotero, it unlinks all the citations on the page and I have to restore to an earlier version to get them back. There were no errors in the report but something seems quite wrong.
Thanks and please help!

  • Also when I try to edit a citation I get "Selected field fyvWiy not returned from Docs backend"
  • This weirdly doen't happen when using a non numerical citation format, but does occur when using the ordered numbering Nature citation format.
  • Did you copy and paste the contents of this document from another document? If all citations unlink upon interaction with Zotero, it means that Zotero couldn't find the field codes that should be stored in the document for those citations. Copying and pasting between google docs should retain citations, although that might not work perfectly if copy-pasting many pages worth of text at once.
  • It started happening when I copied and pasted large blocks within the same document, however changing the format has fixed the problem so far!
