I've been here for years and had not known how to do that. Thanks.

I cannot find the messaging system. What am I overlooking?

My academic interest concerns how people seek information via database queries and how they manage that information. Your situation interests me. I may be able to offer more specific suggestions if you write to me directly. I don't think there is a…

Although my primary library doesn't use Primo for its catalog, I work with a volunteer at a Primo library and she can no longer get the results she needs by using Zotero. She, too, says that RIS isn't an option. Other reference management software c…

If "tens of thousands" means at least 20000 results that means you will retrieve at least half a million items. (I doubt if your institution's subscription will allow that.) Are you also intending to capture full text or pdf files of these ProQuest …

This issue is one of the few times that you may need to select the Zotero item type based upon what the requirements of your target journal. One example : The Human Factors and Ergonomics Society has a conference each year that results in a multi-vo…

Be aware, however, that some proceedings are treated as a serial with one issue per year. These "journals" have an issn. Some journal publishers like these cited as journal articles.

Most reviews are a type of journal article for the purpose of citation style. Sometimes reviews are in the form of reports. To designate reviews in your library I recommend that you use a tag (perhaps, assign a color to the tag). This applies to b…

In my experience GS does not always offer users a request for validation-- sometimes users are simply blocked from downloading.

The line spacing is controlled by settings in your Word program. Word styles are overriding your Zotero settings.

Your problem is almost certainly this: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/site_access_limits However, please be aware that (although somewhat better than it was a year ago) Google Scholar metadata is almost always inferior to that you will obtain b…

A warning about ORCID items from an author's profile. ORCID offers no quality/accuracy controls for the "works" listed in an author's profile. In addition to DOI errors; volume, issue, and pagination errors are common. While ORCID allows items to be…

I'm really trying to be helpful not arguing-- A properly constructed PubMed search will _always_ yield more items than a Medline search. The PubMed database has the contents of several thousand more journals than are indexed in Medline. In addition,…

You should be able to directly search PubMed without limits on downloading results.

Items in the "folder" (collection) aren't deleted from the library. The organizational structure signified by the folder is removed after you approve the action via the warning box. If you both deleted the collection _and_ the items in the collectio…

@adamsmith There are rumors swerling around some California academic circles about a high level of conflict blocking improvements to CSL. Is there any hint of a schedule for work on completing the next version?
-
The same TRB / Sage DOI problem occurred for many (but not all) Blackwell journals when Blackwell was bought by Wiley. For a year or two the Blackwell DOIs still connected. The old DOIs no longer resolve. I could editorialize about my disappointment…

For the next several days I will make a list of publisher sites that don't supply keywords with metadata imported to Zotero. I'll post again to this thread when I've made some progress. Mostly these are shortcomings of the publishers. Keywords disp…

It depends on the style and especially if numbered or auther(year). It also depends on how many different whole periodicals or issues you will need to cite. As @adamsmith suggested, I find that using the book type in Zotero requires fewer edits in t…

As a Mac user, I recommend using Firefox or Chrome with Zotero. Some of the Safari problems may be resolved -- but how soon and how permanent the solution are important questions yet even the developers aren't sure of the answers. I work in an all M…

Good question about tags / keywords / index terms. Yes, that is a current technical limitation but one that we could fix. I'll discuss this with my developers and, if the cost isn't too great, include keywords with the other metadata. [edit: Know,…

@mlaytner I can confirm that Zotero works with Mojave betas when used with Chrome or Firefox.

See: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/72255/zotero-safari-extension-not-working-with-safari-12#latest Apple redesigned the latest versions of Safari in a way that Zotero and many other plugins or extensions will not work. I work in an all-Mac s…

Fails initially for us on and off campus Firefox and Chrome 1 in 2 or at best 1 in 3 connections. As I said, the page doesn't completely load waiting for an ad-server. I posted my message to help other Zotero users who might not try achieving a suc…

@Coronz see the comment by @adomasven above and follow the link in that post. It isn't possible for Zotero to develop a functioning extension until Microsoft allows or builds-in the structure to enable what you want.

I haven't had the impression that they are interesting in making the effort to repair the problem this time. I didn't get the impression that they understood or really cared. At one point someone said that the editorial board wasn't very interested …

The cost of adding unAPI to my online literature database was under US$1000 of web development time for our mySQL-based system. SafetyLit.org is a no-cost/ad-free database of scholarly research articles relevant to injury prevention. Visit the site …

Also Keyboard Maestro is a great MacOS text expander. I've used it for years with Zotero and I haven't found a program where it doesn't work. There is a Windows version.

In a year my master thesis should be over and then I won't use Zotero. I suspect that you will need to write reports or grant proposals after you complete your degree. The utility of Zotero is certainly not limited to academic assignments.
