Bibliography in Word don't work

Good day Zotero team,

I am unable to create the bibliography in Word. I have tried the step-by-step guide, but without success. I have just downloaded the new version of Zotero, Word is up to date, and I have restarted the computer.

When I add a new citation and then create the bibliography through Zotero, it works, but not with the old citations. Most importantly, I cannot create the bibliography directly in Word, not even in a new Word document. I am currently stuck with my Master's thesis and cannot complete it.

Please help, Evelyn
  • I can put in now from the zotero Bibliography the citations, but not here:




  • Das ist nicht das Literaturverzeichnis von Zotero. Das ist das Word eigene Ding.

    Hier machst du das:

  • This is what is working but it looks not good.
    in the past:

    Now

  • Try switching to a different style and back using the "Document preferences" button in the Zotero bar in Word.
  • I still cannot insert the bibliography in Word; it keeps showing "No sources found in the current document." I am at the beginning of my Master's thesis, and if there are already problems now, what will happen at the end? Do you have a solution for this?

    Your suggestion worked
  • I'm really confused -- what do you mean you can't insert the bibliography in Word? Isn't the screenshot you show from Word? If you're working with Zotero in Word, only the buttons in the Zotero tab matter. The bibliography functionality in Word is completely separate and you'd use one or the other (and Zotero's is much more powerful in every respect)
  • How did you insert the citations exactly?
    Please look through this first. Make sure you have the Zotero addon installed and it's functional. If you don't see the "Zotero" tab as shown in my screenshot, you're actually not using Zotero, but the Word thing.
