It appears that you are seeing Zotero field codes in your document instead of the formatted reference citations. If so, quickly and easily fixed, see: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/word_field_codes

You will need to provide more information so that someone here can help you. See: https://www.zotero.org/support/reporting_problems Be sure to report your operating system, Zotero version, your use of cloud or network storage, etc. By "source file…

To get a quick answer, you will need to describe your problem in greater detail. See: https://www.zotero.org/support/reporting_problems

Already reported: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/65772/error-with-translator-for-imdb-com-zotero-5-0-beta#latest It seems that getting this to work in Zotero will not be a quick fix. I'm told that the IMDB site is also broken to EndNote &am…

Thanks. I'm never quite sure of forum best practice in a case such as this. Do I take the bandwidth to say thank-you for an answer to a question or is my silent gratitude better for all users (so that the final post to a thread is by a recognized au…

@adomasven. "Zotero port to React". Is this at the good-idea stage or is work being done on this. Mobile saving would be a really good thing for my work flow.

@juanpide Please further explain your "full and proper data for a bibliography" request. There may already be such an option if you want what I think you are requesting. Are you asking for a utility that can interpret a doc- text- or pdf-format bibl…

I'm sorry. I see now that I was overthinking.

Could this somehow be implemented with an add-on and something placed in the Zotero extra field? It would certainly require changes to the style used. Could a style call a Word macro? The style could be changed to the more standard version just befo…

I believe the status is... "1) in anticipation that I am likely to want to use file storage some day AND 2) I want to be able to upload a file without stopping work to do the necessary housecleaning before so that I then have the storage space..." …

I've been using the beta since it was announced and began using it as the only version soon thereafter. It satisfies my needs quite well. That said, I see no reason to rush this. Clearly, with almost 200 revisions, there has been a need to make adju…

I apologize if this isn't helpful but ever since the second most recent MacOS upgrade I've also had this problen unrelated to Zotero. The problem is intermittent. Because my bank, accountant, and my attorney send me pdf documents that are password …

Prehospital Emergency Care style is essentially Vancouver style. Zotero has several "flavors" of this style. Pick the one that is closest to the Taylor & Francis ScholarOne requirement that is requested. That is likely to be either square bracke…

Further complicating imports from publisher sites is choice of translator for the site.

Somehow, when questioning abbreviations in Zotero one comes close to touching a third rail. I am biased. Zotero's treatment of abbreviations is the _only_ aspect of the program that I dislike, but the level of my dislike is far beyond loathing. This…

Not setting up a guest account means that other users could do worse damage than copying files. Malicious users could delete the files even if the files are encripted. A system-level solution is the only safe and secure way to solve this kind of pro…

In my experience citations in tables get messy fast with Word or LibreOffice. This problem isn't limited to Zotero but also exists with students who use EndNote. I deal with this by, when writing with Zotero field codes active, I do not place _any_…

ZotPress... I see that you might be creating a document for a WordPress site. I think that I remember that ZotPress will, if set to do so, automatically convert strings beginning with http https into proper web links. If I am mistaken, I know that …

One more thing: journal publishers change their manuscript style requirements now and then. Time and again, the necessary updates/changes are made to update Zotero within hours of a user's report of the problem.

Also, there are people across the world who properly respond to support requests. That means that support is often quickly available 24/7. lead developer dstillman sells himself short... When bugs or other problems have been identified in the progr…

Google Scholar openly acknowledges that theit metadata is not curated and that by the nature of how records are brought into the GS service there will be errors. I strongly recommend that GS users follow the link to the source and import metadata fr…

I seldom disagree with adamsmith and I don't fully disagree here. However, it really depends on how much writing and reference gathering remains on your project. The amount of time needed to switch may be a worthy investment and instead of time lost…

Do you refer to attachments to records in group libraries or to some other problem with syncing?

Please be very cautious about user data. At several points I've tried Mendeley's user metadata and at least 30 percent of the time records contained major inaccuracies. Some were so bad that we suspected sabotage by trolls. Other problems were clear…

...Dan is just running 5.0 at this point... That doesn't mean only Dan is running 5.0. I and many others have been running 5.0-beta exclusively for many months. For me, 5.0 betas have been better than the 4.x version for quite a while. I find it is…

I have just started to experiment with Voyant but I've had the opposite result. This wasn't a Zotero file but a pdf of a report that includes Titles and abstracts of 450 items. The report ran quickly. I added a large number of words to the list of s…

Providing article-specific URLs from CNKI is all but impossible. The URLs are absurdly lengthy. The middle umpteen characters of the url for the same article are often (but not always) different depending upon when or how many times the article has …

One thing I've noticed is that sometimes, especially after a version upgrade, when using a computer with little RAM or a slow processor, several seconds can elapse between the selection of the current collection and the appearance of items in the ce…

As a user of this forum I find it quite useful to have as much information about the problem as possible. Knowing about the OS helps me (and others among the thousands of lurkers here) to recognize if the issue might apply to my own problem. Other …
