CYAW Server & Connecting to Scrivener

edited today at 1:29am
I am trying to install and get the Better BibTeX plug-in to play nicely with Scrivener. I believe that is based on Zotero 7, but I'm running Zotero 10. Is there a version of Better BibTeX that works on 10, or a different work around to get Scrivener to be able to import citations that then get converted when I export?

I've got the BBT plug-in installed and the Zotero Picker for Scrivener. There's something happening where Scrivener can't communicate with the CYAW server and Zotero. I can use a hot key and have the citation pop up appear. It just won't convert to a citation and show up in Scrivener and the Powershell shows me a "0" after the "Zotero is running" message.

I will cross-post on the Scrivener forums to see if they have suggestions, but wanted to check with Zotero folks too!

    You'll need to rephrase this and provide a bit more detail. As written this doesn't make sense: Scrivener doesn't have a version 7 or 10 (Zotero does), BBT works with Zotero 10, Better BibTex isn't a Scrivener plugin, so not really clear what you mean here, I'm afraid.
    I'd also guess that for the most part this is more a question for the Scrivener forums than for Zotero.
  • @adamsmith - I shouldn't write forum posts while tired, clearly! Updated with the right versions and softwares.
  • OK -- BBT is certainly compatible with Zotero 10 and there's no different version, no. How exactly do you have CAYW integrated in Scrivener (if you follow someone's instructions, just link to them)?
