On this name issue... I'd love to have a built-in or plug-in utility that would allow a search for authors with similar names, the listing of names would allow a selection of names from the list, then allow all selected names to be merged to elimina…

This will work in the author field. Begin your entry with a quotation mark, type the author's last name and then be sure to delete the quotation mark before tabbing to the next field. Repeat for the first name. [Unless you already have a name that b…

Answer @adamsmith 's question about a template. Were you provided a Word document to use (maybe with headers and footers already in place)? Your comment: "- If I create a blank document the duplicate numbers do not appear, but need to use the exist…

Okay, thanks.

See: https://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues If that doesn't answer your question, please provide URLs, say what browser and website or database you are using. The debug number alone provides a lot of information but the te…

Please follow the "steps to reproduce" link above and describe in detail what your trouble is. Just sending report or debug ids cannot convey the nature of your problem. Know that Dan Stillman is the lead developer of Zotero.

You can establish a group under your own unlimited Zotero account. You are the owner of that group and any files are associated to your Zotero account. Your group can have more than one owner in that each owner-person should know login information…

Unless your work depends on a Zotero plugin. I see no reason not to update to 7 beta. I've been using it and it is rock solid stable. But your problem might not go away with the new version simply by installing it. there may be a different issue tha…

Have you tried reinstalling the Word plugin from Cite → Word Processor Plugins pane of the Zotero preferences. Please better describe "not communicating ". Do you have the Zotero controls in Word but nothing happens when you add a citation? Are …

So that a Zotero developer or experienced volunteer can help you, please provide more information. This could be something very simple to fix. you will not loose your Zotero library records. What version of Word? What operating system and its versi…

In the almost 17 years I've been using Zotero and reading this forum, I've never seen a date of release statement. There are too many unexpected crises that can arise when unanticipated changes occur to word processing software that must be immediat…

With Zotero, one never needs to be concerned with the punctuation or name order and format. For someone who grew up with only printed indices (without being able to combine search terms), copying article info to index cards, finding the journal arti…

There is already a Zotero CSL style for The Accounting Review. You can easily install it. See: https://www.zotero.org/styles That is the correct name format for the standard Chicago style. First author: Lastname, firstname. Subsequent authors: Fir…

When requesting styles there a specific request format. Styles are coded by volunteers and to facilitate (and partially automate) their work it is necessary for you to provide examples using the exact publications they request: https://github.com/c…

When imported to Zotero from nbib these are correctly saved as preprint type but when captured from the browser import icon these are indeed saved as a journal article.

Do you get a ScienceDirect error? ScienceDirect, in the past week, has tightened the limits on the number of items it allows to be simply viewed (not downloading metadata and certainly not capturing PDFs) in a given time span. I have encountered th…

A 14-page document isn't long. Provide more information and someone will recommend how to solve your problem. My doctoral thesis was over 200 pages with citations to 410 references. At the end it certainly wasn't fast but it did remain responsive. …

I recommend using the NLM with PMIDs/PMCIDs style. It is likely that you will need to add the style to those offered in your Zotero program. Doing so is really easy. When you are asked to select a citation style, at the bottom of the list of install…

A version of a guide for EndNote isn't useful for CSL-based styles. Are you submitting to the Bulletin of the World Health Organization or to some other WHO serial? To a WHO book or report? The WHO BULLETIN and other serials follow the NLM or a Va…

Early on in this thread and in the documentation is the recommendation that when the same author is in Zotero with names that are more or less complete (Lastname Firstmame(s) in two-name 'double box' Zotero fields*: Bloggs, Joe; Bloggs, Joseph; Blog…

Perhaps. When I can, I will aim a camera at my screen and let it run. Then edit out the irrelevant stuff. This is very frustrating and annoying because it doesn't always -not- save and because of its puzzling intermittency. I can mostly control the …

When using 99 if I select all and permanently delete, then quit Zotero after the delete process seems to finish; upon re-opening Zotero there is a several second delay but I have access to collection contents and no records are listed in the trash. …

Also beta 7 99 but Mac I've noticed the same issue with tag edits but also with other fields in Zotero itself. I would find helpful if some clarification could be made with this issue. Is it the intended functionality that it is necessary to tab aw…

Are you sure that you have selected APA and not ASA?

Know that (unless you are capturing a GS listening of a citation where GS does not link to a publisher); you will almost always get more complete and accurate metadata by visiting the publisher's site and importing the metadata from there. GS is bet…

When the developer of a plug-in that you use suggests that the problem might be his plug-in, you probably should pay attention. He is extraordinarily skilled, helpful, and honest. When you have a problem like yours, you should (temporarily) disable…

I have used 93 and am now on 98, having used the others in between. I quit and restart Zotero daily. I can access the contents of my collections almost instantly but the number of items in my trash doesn't decline when I empty it. In fact, the numbe…

I don't have information from the latest APA and Chicago style guides but: Chicago 16, 14.72 “Authors’ names are normally given as they appear on the title pages of their books or above their articles. Certain adjustments, however, should be made …

Please provide some basic information. Are you downloading Zotero from https://www.zotero.org/ ? What is your operating system and version?
