Please provide the (update) version numbers of the software you use Zotero, Open Office, etc. Are you using OpenOffice or LibreOffice? What version of the OO/LO plug-in? See instructions for reporting problems: https://www.zotero.org/support/repor…

My sincere apologies. I thought that I remembered that I tried to edit the item type online and couldn't. Clearly, I shouldn't rely on my memory and write without trying something first. Yes, changing item type on the website can be done.
-
Are you attempting the change of item type on the Zotero website library or on your Zotero standalone or on Zotero in Firefox? I don't think that it is currently possible to make the change on your online library. If you make the change using your l…

Those who offer help will need more information about your computer software and a better description of your problem. They will also need the _exact_ words of the error message -- even if the message is not in English. See this: https://www.zoter…

If for some reason you cannot run El Capitan and your scroll bar is flickering irregularly you can fix this by turning off transparency, restarting and (if you want) turning transparency on again. Or, is this what you see: https://github.com/codem…

I cannot speak to any syncing issue but I can say that I have had no losses of feed subscriptions through the past several updates. I'm now using r28. I subscribe to 50+ feeds. [Is there a limit to the number of feeds?] (I am not syncing because …
-
Do you mean that you lost your feed subscriptions? The items within the feed? The items you added from the feed to one of your collections? Each of these has different implications. The loss of items within the feed could be related to the setting …

UPDATE: This is probably not strictly a Zotero problem. I just tried to double check an author's name and I have been blocked by the Taylor and Francis server with the following message: client IP is blocked because: More than 100 actions from an …
-
Another thought: you didn't say which Zotero style you are using. It shouldn't have anything to do with your problem but it might help to know if you are using a numbered style (Vancouver, AMA) an in-text author-date style like APA, or a style that …

adamsmith was referring to the styles setting in Word not the Zotero styles. If you are unfamiliar with Word styles please do a Google search and learn about the topic. The Word style is what controls the line spacing in your document. "when I past…

Although it probably has nothing to do with your problem, having that many items in your trash can slow things down -- how much slower can be better described by the experts here.
-
Purely to satisfy my own curiosity, please say why you retain so many items in the trash. Thanks.
-
Thank you, Adomasven. So the answer seems to be 'both'. I will fix my site within the next 24 hours. Perhaps, your comment will help us to be more specific when writing to publishers about similar problems with their feeds.

View: https://www.zotero.org/support/ Then ask more specific questions.

The icons are no longer within the URL field but to the right. You should see a Z and an icon. Check to see if your Firefox add-on plug-in list includes Zotero and that it is enabled. What version of Firefox? What version of Zotero?
-
Something like this is in the planning stages for my SafrtyLit service. What I hope to do is have a series of scripts that : 1) identifies records with a doi but no volume or pagination metadata; 2) calls Zotero to re-fetch the article metadata; 3) …

Yes, Dan has it right. I thought that I had trimmed the irrevalant parts in the beginning. I'll do the edit and repost the video.
-
@noksagt ...are there examples that don't involve right clicking... I think so but I will need to run tests. The example above came from my normal work. I'll have time to experiment Wednesday afternoon (California time).
-
Here is one example of my problem (see link to movie): I bring in an item from Jstage. It is without an ISSN so I paste it in. I move to the journal title to change the case from title to sentence. Upon clicking on the "sentence case" option in …
-
Thank you. I will start a running screen capture and after a few examples I'll link to it.
-
To be clear: when you look for downloaded items are you looking at the list online at Zotero.org? You should be using the Zotero version on your computer...Zotero in Firefox or Zotero standalone. The Zotero program offers a screen with 3 columns. …

Your "My Library" can contain many collections. You can create collections by clicking the folder icon superimposed with a plus sign located immediately above the My Library (above the left hand column). You can make collections with category title…

I began using Niles EndNote in the very early 1990s (or was it the late 1980s) when it was exclusively a Mac program. Earlier I had used Reference Manager under CP/M. Even after EndNote was aquired by the ISI, there was little interest in the portab…

For most journal articles the headers contain the DOI. For example: meta name="DC.identifier" content="http://dx.doi.org/10.17645/si.v1i1.109" xml:lang="de" Sometimes even when the DOI is provided on the web page of an item it isn't in the meta ta…

CSL has little to do with HTML. Citation Style Language is used by several personal bibliography management software packages to properly format citations that are inserted into documents. You can read more about CSL here: http://citationstyles.org…

Unless there is multi-authorship collaboration on a manuscript, I would like to know why a professor or supervisor would want to review a document with citation codes intact. (Really, please describe the circumstances if this is not a co-authorship…

The language word to language 2-letter abbreviation would be a great thing if implemented across all import translators. It would be a really great time-saver. Absent that in the translators, is this possible in the processor or in the program itsel…

I think that it would be a good idea to contact the author of the manuscript. It is likely that s/he will be thinking of submitting it to another journal. Does the author want the paper cited or, perhaps, instead of a cite maybe an acknowledgment of…
