Has there been a decision about this? All upper case last names, especially when the publisher has lastname first in a single field make editing the names quite tedious. Some publishers seem to not care about metadata: 10.30574/wjarr.2022.16.1.1059

Thank you for your quick reply. At least I'm not completely misremembering. I've been using Zotero forever and I guess that my recall is from long long ago.

I think that what you are requesting is for what I call primary, secondary, tertiary sort. There are times that I’d like to sort by created date (I sometimes wish to exclude the time but that is a different topic), then within that by journal title …

Are you looking for an item type to cite a play performance or a play script?

It isn’t a Zotero issue. There have been both minor and serious problems with the National Library of Medicine servers for a couple of days. About 6 hours ago I tried to export an nbib file from PubMed with search results and received an error scree…

Check the record in your desktop Zotero. Is 433-460 in your Pages field? If the page range is there, someone else will need to troubleshoot. If instead you have 236 in the Pages field, that is the problem. If you do have the full page range in your …

What is the utility of an ORCID identifier? I'm not opposed to ORCID IDs being connected to author names in the Zotero database. However, linking a single author to a single ORCID ID has never been possible. ORCID could be wonderful but there are a…

Please send me an email so that we can discuss this. edit: removed my email address after contact was made. Thanks.

Thanks, Sebastian. I'll write using your examples.

Here is an example of an incomplete author list from an ERIC record: Learners' Perspectives on School Safety in Johannesburg Hochfeld, Tessa; Schmid, Jeanette; Errington, Sheri South African Journal of Education, v42 n1 Article 1936 Feb 2022 http:…

Mac 12.6 / Zotero 6.0.16-beta.3+29dd0cf5d / Firefox 105.01 I do not have a problem with ERIC items that are journal articles importing as books. ERIC report types seem to all import as report and books as books on my similar system. I doubt if tran…

Your entry in Extra must be preceded with "original-date:" original-date: 1754 Also, I wouldn't recommend beginning the book totle with "In" because the book section styles will add that automatically when appropriate. I think that should work for…

Are you requesting a plug-in utility that would, as items are added to a Zotero library, also add the item to a spreadsheet file (maybe via a CSV export)? I know someone who tried to develop such a utility but failed.

You can create a webpage Zotero record by clicking the connector icon. See: https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#saving_webpages The documentation has other useful information about webpages if you scroll up from the subtitle poin…

You can begin your collection names with a number and/or with one or more punctuation marks. I have a collection name that will sort at the top because the name begins with two exclamation marks !!

@damnation This is a style question. @SwarnaliGoswami Please always indicate in the title of your post when it asks a style question. Else, your question may not be immediately seen by those volunteers who perform the work.

I haven't used Zoo but I've helped a Zoo user with viewing a Zotero online library. I'm confused about your use of Zoo in your university library. Are you capturing items for new Zotero additions or updating Zotero existing library records or merely…

Please reconsider a universal right-click option to convert all-upper-case author names to "sentence case". Here is another article that when imported via the Zotero browser import button or by the DOI that has all upper case author names: https:…

No, not normal. Journal articles from publisher websites and from online databases can be imported with one-click. https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero Please provide URL examples of journal articles that you can't import. edit:…

Please read the forum posts above from me, adamsmith, and damnation. Several of us have tried and tried to help. However, you are not providing the information that is needed. Please consider asking someone you trust to read the recent posts and may…

I suspect that the failed essay problem was not merely that the word count was "too low" but that important concepts were not addressed. That said, it would be really nice in word processor developers made it easier to ignore such things as field …

@sweetandinnocentme I suggest that you talk with librarians at the reference desk at your university library. Is there a conflict between the demands of a single professor and what the university has demanded of Zotero regarding its style?

Someone else will need to comment on translations within Zotero. I have limited success when moving from copy paste non-Latin characters from a PDF to English using Google Translate. However, English to Chinese, Japanese, or Korean seems to work ad…

There is an icon to the right of the name field that allows you to toggle from single-field mode to two-field mode. (To the left of the +/- buttons) You are now in single-field mode. Click the little icon that looks like two tiny flat rectangles a…

To be clear: Use the exact examples in the link above (Authors, Titles, and other metadata) and place those into the style you are requesting. It is not sufficient to use your own authors, titles, and metadata. Styles are developed by volunteers. By…

Everyone here is trying to be patient and cajole you to provide the details need to help you. Your impatience has now bordered on rudeness to those of us trying to help you. Please take a breath and step back. You are communicating with the lead…

You haven't provided sufficient information to allow anyone to help. See: https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/REQUESTING.md#requesting-csl-styles It isn't clear what entity style you need (IEEE, Computer Vision, etc.). If…

I am confused, as are the others who are trying to help, and I don't understand exactly what you mean by, "cite just 4 references it works if I cited the 4 separately or even 2 then 2." Please try to explain the nature of your problem, step-by-step.…
