Version history for WinWord plugin?

groston
All,

Based on previous conversations, I was able to get the WinWord plugin working properly with Office 2010 x64. The world is a happy place. But, recently, a new version of the WinWord plugin was made available. Before I risk installing this and breaking things, could someone point me to a version history so I can see what changes were made with this new version?

Thx.

    I'm not aware of a changelog for the plugin, but you can probably piece it together yourself using
    https://www.zotero.org/trac/timeline

    adamsmith,

    Looked around, but did not see anything obvious. Easier question 9I hope): Is there a repository of older versions? If so, I can run a directory compare against the new.

    Here's my commit to add Office 2010 compatibility. The only change is the Zotero.dot file. Unfortunately, it's a binary format so it isn't automatically diffed, but you can find download links to both the new and previous versions there.

    You could also back up your modified Zotero.dot file and try the new plug-in, then copy back the old one if it doesn't work. Dan fixed a comma splice, but besides that, the Zotero.dot file is the only thing that's changed between 3.0a3 and 3.0a4, as you can verify by comparing the revisions of the folders and files between the 3.0a3 tag and 3.0a4 tag.

    Simon,

    Could you publish a proper changelog with any new release of the plugin? (similarly to the way changelogs are published with main zotero upgrades).

    Simon,

    Thanks for providing this update. It would be helpful if one could easily determine that the purpose of the update is Office 2010 compatibility.

    I've created a ticket for changelogs for the plug-ins.

    A changelog is now available at http://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_changelog.
