Edit Bibliography
Dear all,
I am working with LibreOffice and I have problems with editing the Bibliography.
I can add and remove entries from my bibliography by pressing "Add/Edit Bibliography". Unfortunately, the Bibliography is not updated as a result (pressing "Refresh" doesn´t help either).
What can I do?
I send you my best regards and I wish you all a relaxed day!

I tried it, but the problem still remains.
When I want to add/edit my Bibliography I always have to delete the old Bibliography first before I can really get into the window "Literaturverzeichnis editieren" (in German :)).
Otherwise
1. the bibliography will either be inserted again after the "old" one or
2. following the point where the cursor was when I clicked "Add/Edit Bibliography" or
3. only the part after the point where the cursor was when I clicked "Add/Edit Bibliography" will be inserted again.
Tricky case, but hopefully not unsolvable...
Thank you for your time and brainpower!
I read through the informations in the corresponding link.
In my document the already inserted citations are already highlighted in gray without clicking them. Clicking Add/Edit Citation the citation dialog appears with the corresponding citation. So the citations seem to be active fields.
Do the entries in the bibliography have to be active fields as well? I am wondering if my bibliography is flattened (with active citations) as there are no corresponding information when I click on parts of the bibliography. If it is flattened, the recommended new insert of the bibliography by clicking Add/Edit Bibliography doesn´t help me out.
Thanks for your ongoing support!
A Zotero Dev will need to look into this with you.
Will the Zotero Dev will get back to me or do I have to actively reach out?
Have a lovely rest of the day!
Could you help here?
But you should test whether you can reproduce this in a new, empty document. If not, see Troubleshooting Errors in Word Processor Documents, in particular the last step.
I wanted to follow your recommended procedure. Unfortunately the current version of LibreOffice crashes constantly. I was so annoyed that I have now bought word through my university. Can you please give me some advice on the best way to convert my LibreOffice files into Word files in order to save my citations? Thank you very much.
