Update: I'm again messing around with using Google Refine to batch-edit and reconcile Zotero data; if anyone else is interested, the best export format seems to be CSL JSON if you want to get the data into Google Refine.
-
Good to know re MLA style, Adam! The only other name that occurred to me was "Source," but that's so vague as to be nearly useless. "Index" would be accurate but also confusing. I think I like plain "Database" best, myself. "Collection"? "Aggregatio…

Now that's service.
-
That's about what I figured. Thanks, Dan.

Slight digression: like Rintze, I'm longing for batch editing, and I too think that Google Refine would be a good way to do it. Happy to hear about Pyozotero -- might try that out in preference to importing to Endnote and batch editing there, then e…

AWESOME. Works like a dream. Thanks so much.
-
Sure. Here's a couple. I did notice that it's rewriting google.com/blogsearch to google.com/search?tbm=blg. http://www.google.com/search?tbm=blg&hl=en&source=hp&biw=1440&bih=671&q=aaron+swartz&btnG=Search http://www.googl…

Got it -- genius! Very nice to have them stay collapsed. Thanks.
-
Sorry, still don't see it. I'm running FF 7 on a Mac.
-
I'm running Zotero for FF 2.1.10, and my group libraries are still always expanded by default. Is there an about:config setting I should toggle or something?
-
Whoops, sorry I never replied to this -- fast work, ajlyon! I did try it and didn't get it to work -- I saved it to my translators directory as Google Blogs.js, restarted, did a couple of different searches at http://google.com/blogsearch, but didn'…

Yes, I'd like a translator for Hathi Trust, too -- http://hathitrust.org
-
I think it's the best known one, yes, although of course Google is Google. I don't usually use blog search engines, but I definitely would if it would make importing blog posts into Zotero faster. Actually it'd probably be better to start with Goo…
-
Aha! Thanks, Simon. I must've used an old dmg on my hard drive to install. I installed the latest Zotero and then the latest RIS.js file, and although I'm getting "[JavaScript Application] An error occurred . . . ensure the file is valid . . ." erro…
-
I did that -- that's what I meant in my first comment when I said "the above file." I also found the most recent RIS.js file in ajlyon's repository dated June 25th and installed that in the translators folder, but nothing changed with any version of…

Hi, I'm having trouble importing RIS files with standalone (version 2.1a2) too. I tried saving the above file to my translators directory, but no dice. I even tried the file updated June 25, 2011 and restarted, but still, when I try to import an .ri…

Works great! For both individual blog items and for selecting all items (articles and blogs) from search results. Thanks so much.
-
Yep, they definitely are detected as translatable. And they appear in the Chronicle's own search results.
-
Sorry I didn't provide a URL before: I couldn't get it to work on anything, so I thought it wouldn't matter. But it seems to be a Chronicle blogs issue. I *did* get it to work on this article: http://chronicle.com/article/The-Unconference-Technolog…
-
I've updated my translators, but I'm getting the "error - check known translator issues" message whenever I try to save an item from the Chronicle of Higher Education. Is it broken again?
-
Ah, of course. Crap. There goes my Pimpzilla.
-
Fair enough -- I'm sure you know more about the potential problems than I do, and it's not your fault that I'm getting information from the millions of blogs that'll never have individual site translators. The Chronicle of Higher Education has a tra…
-
Huh, that's weird -- can't get it to work in any browser (Chrome, FF, Safari) on the MacBook Pro, even with cache cleared. Downloads excruciatingly slowly and then hangs halfway. But it worked fine on my old MacBook. Very bizarre. I have no trouble …
-
Me too!
-
Wow, that's neat that clicking on "URL" takes you to the URL! I agree with cartesian, though -- I had no idea that it would do that, so I came here specifically to request a way to get to the URL with a single click, preferably with the Locate butto…
-
I'll check my fonts folder tomorrow, Dan, when I'm at work. I certainly didn't delete any fonts, but it's an older Dell that they gave me to work on, so who knows what previous users might've done.
-
Hmm, that could be it, Mark. The screenshot was taken from my PC, which is running Win XP, but when I look at it on my Mac, the folder is properly highlighted in bold (though it's still not very prominent).
-
Ooh, there it is! Thanks so much. :)
-
Doesn't look like it. See http://www.flickr.com/photos/amandafrench/3946105450/sizes/o/ I almost told you what browser I'm using, but I guess you know that, right? :)
-
I agree that changes would be useful, especially sortable tables. Short of that, though, there could be display improvements: right now, for instance, it's difficult to tell what folder one is in. For instance, here's the link to my "Dead Metaphor" …
