Another workaround I've discovered - when adding a citation in Australian Guide to Legal Citation 4th Edition. If (after adding the citation) I change the document preferences to APA, and then change it back to AGLC 4, the footnote is generated correctly.
Zotero Connector 5.0.83 for Firefox is now available with a fix for this, and we've submitted updates for Chrome and Edge that will hopefully be available within the next 24–48 hours. Thanks for your patience on this.
I just gave the Firefox addon a shot (confirmed that it's the version from March 10th) and I can't add citations into footnotes, they're added to the main text right after the footnote instead. If I try to edit an existing citation that I copied and pasted into a footnote (note that it is not showing up as red, i.e. unlinked) a popup reports that "selectedFieldID is null".
I tried a new document, made a footnote and tried to insert a citation into the footnote and here's the result: https://imgur.com/a/dtiMqpt It inserts after the footnote mark in the main text.
@willismonroe: Oh, so you're using an in-text style, not a footnote style? I can reproduce that with Chicago Author-Date with the new version. Most/all of the other reports here are about using a note-based style (e.g., Chicago Note), where Zotero inserts the footnote for you.
We'll look into the problem with in-text styles in footnotes. In the meantime, as a workaround, you should be able to cut/paste the in-text citation into the footnote.
@dstillman Ah ok, yeah I just tried adding a note style citation and it works. However, I can't edit the note style citation after it's added. I get the error: "selectedFieldID is null"
If you can get to adding in-text in footnotes that'd be great too!
Zotero Connector 5.0.84 for Firefox is available now with the additional fix for citing with the cursor within an existing footnote, as reported by @willismonroe. That will likely be available for Edge today or Monday, and for Chrome sometime next week (after they first approve 5.0.83).
@HedgieLib Not an issue that I can reproduce. Please create a new thread and describe what you're doing and what you see happening. Try to reproduce the problem in a new document. Also submit a Report ID from Zotero Connector.

I'm using a current version of Chrome and v. 5.0.92 of the Chrome Connector.
Google Docs will acknowledge CSM 17 author-date, AMA, APA, etc etc..but not CSM any of the note versions.
Ideas?
