Problem with Current Opinion in Neurobiology style

When I try to get the style for Current Opinion in Neurobiology, I get the following error in the debug console:

Zotero.Styles.install() now takes a style object as first argument -- update your code

Is the style definition for this journal out of date?

    Where are you installing the style from?

    I just clicked 'Get additional styles', both from Zotero itself (Preferences->Cite) and from the Zotero document preferences inside Libre office. It works for another journal I just tried (Frontiers in Neuroscience).

    Why are you referring to the debug console? Is there an actual problem installing the style? If so, what happens? That style installs fine for me.

    If I try to install the style I get 'An unexpected error occurred while installing "https://www.zotero.org/styles/current-opinion-in-neurobiology"'. Based on previous posts I thought I should provide this debug information since the error message doesn't seem very informative. I get the same error if I download the csl file from that URL and try to add it manually. This is the full debug output:

    (Note that we almost never want the raw output here — we just need a Report ID or Debug ID.)

    Try resetting styles from the Advanced → Files and Folders pane of the Zotero preferences.

    Ah that worked! Thanks for your help, much appreciated.
