Bibliography got edited to some text. How to revert it back?

Hi everyone,

I'm writing a paper in Word using the Zotero plugin. Everything was working perfectly until I must have accidentally pressed some shortcut, and now my entire bibliography has been replaced by two random sentences from the body of my paper.

I’ve tried using Edit Bibliography and Refresh, and even re-inserting the bibliography entirely, but none of it worked. It still shows those sentences instead of the actual reference list.

Really need help fixing this. Thanks so much in advance!
  • When you open the Edit Bibliography dialog, does it show the items cited in your document in the right section? If so, try removing the bibliography and some surrounding text, like a page around it, and reinserting it. Otherwise see Troubleshooting Errors in Word Processor Documents
  • Thanks for your reply! The Edit Bibliography window did show all the cited items. I actually fixed the problem somewhat accidentally: I first uninstalled the Zotero Word plugin and then completely restarted Word. Zotero plugin got automatically added back, and now everything works fine... I'm sharing this here in case someone else runs into a similar issue.
