Upgrade StorageCitation problem
When I insert a citation, the word citation appears in parentheses, not the formatted citation. Does anyone know how to correct this problem? Thank you

Here's what happened but as you will see below, I may have discovered the problem.
I place the cursor at the end of the sentence, I select Add Citation, and select “Chicago Manual of Style 17th edition (full note)” for footnote and click OK. The Zotero bar appears, and i select the reference from the library. This is what appears in the footnote {Citation} instead of the actual formatted citation.
However, I may have discovered the problem: if I pick the classic view, and select from the library, rather than typing a part of the citation into the bar (e.g., title word) and then selecting from the options it appears to work this way and the full citation is entered. I thought that we could use the bar to scan for the reference rather than going back to the library, but it appears this is not the case.
I apologize for the bother and thanks kindly for getting back to me so quickly.
Regards,
Elaine
