Upgrade StorageZotero erasing Month and Day from Newspaper Article Citations
I just upgraded to Zotero 2.1.1. I am using Firefox 3.6.16 and MS Word for Mac 2008
With the new upgrade, when I upgrade my Word files Zotero is deleting all Days and Months from Newspaper Article citations. This is for a dissertation that has to be filed by end of April. I do have a back-up from right before I upgraded Zotero, and am happy to go back to it, but don't know how to revert to a previous version of Zotero, Any help on either front would be MUCH appreciated.

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Instead of commenting here, you should start a new discussion. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
1. A citation of a newspaper article in CMoS as created by Zotero for you
2. For the same article, the output of an RDF export: Right-click on the article in Zotero,
Export Selected Item --> Zotero RDF (no Notes or Files) Open the exported file "ExportedItems.rdf" with a text editor like notepad or textedit and copy & paste the entire content.
Edit: there is also a possibility that this is already fixed and you'll just have to wait for the next Zotero update, out within 24hs.
James Reston, “Washington: How to be an Artful Dodger in a Good Cause,” New York Times (1857-Current file), 1965, 24.
If it helps, here is the citation as it read before upgrading
James Reston, “Washington: How to be an Artful Dodger in a Good Cause,” New York Times (1857-Current file), January 13, 1965, 24.
Here is the RDF export
