If you want a human-readable file format, CSL YAML will also work the same as CSL JSON
-
I am not sure where you found that quote, but it’s not correct. APA style adds the initials before the author last names, not after.
-
Zutilo adds actions to the right click menu when you right click on an item, including this one. You can customize which actions are added in the Zutilo preferences window (in the Tools menu).
-
You can add linked files in Zotero on desktop. The only thing going away with Zotfile is the automatic moving and linking of files. You can still manually add linked items.
-
Item data doesn’t use storage space, only attachment files (PDFs, etc) do. If you don’t want to sync attachment files, you can disable file syncing (but keep syncing item data) in the Sync pane of Zotero preferences. You can also delete attachment …

It is correct APA style to add initials when two different authors have the same last name.
-
The format for Citation Labels is not something that can currently be edited in CSL styles, unfortunately. It may be possible to control them via data entry in Zotero. In Extra, enter the citation label for the item like this: Citation label: HOP17
-
Given that they all have DOIs, the fastest most accurate way would be to copy those out and use the magic wand tool in Zotero to import them. You can paste a whole list of them, one on each line, into the magic wand field at once You can also pars…

Until the style is updated, enter the name in Extra like this: Author: Last || First A.

How are you exporting from Endnote? Are you using the Endnote XML format?
-
I’ll get that localized.

Here you go https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bwiernik/zotero-tools/master/apa-numeric-alphabetical.csl

I’m not sure what you mean exactly? Can you give a full reference showing what you mean?
-
If you haven’t exited the name field for the author yet, Ctrl/Cmd+Z will undo the deletion. Otherwise you can re-add the author and type the name in again.
-
If you are using Zotero with LaTeX, you will want to use the BetterBibTeX plugin and its export formats. When you export with the plugin, uppercase words in fields will be enclosed in braces. (As a side note, I suggest storing “R package” in the P…

Place your cursor in the citation text and click the Add/Edit Citation button to bring up the citation window for the item. Click on the blue bubble for the item, then click Open in My Library.
-
Enter the dates in Extra like this: Issued: 1849/1856 Or with day and month: Issued: 1849-03-01/1856-05-16
-
(To clarify, book titles and conference session titles are sentence case in APA, as well. But journal titles and website titles are all title case in the APA manual)
-
The Zutilo plugin lets you set 5 different quick copy formats. Set one of them to be the Better BibTeX citation key.
-
It’s a historical artifact and one that will be changed as Zotero field updates are implemented. I usually test for `event` rather than `event-place`.
-
Click Tools, then Zutilo settings, then set your desired keyboard shortcut for one of the Quick Copy options.
-
Import isn’t for attachments. It’s not relevant here. Can you submit a debug ID of an attempt to drag and drop an epub? https://www.zotero.org/support/debug_output
-
You can drag an epub like any other type of file into the desktop Zotero app. What exactly happens when you try?
-
If it’s just for recording purposes and not something you would want to see in a citation, then putting the additional languages in Extra is the best option. If you need to be able to cite all of these languages, that’s not supported by Zotero. It…

This is coming soon. No need for further bumping
-
To speed up inserting citations in large documents, you can disable automatic citation updating from the Document Preferences window in the Zotero tab in Word. Endnote’s publisher has in the past filed capricious lawsuits against Zotero when Zoter…
-
Yes, this is controlled by the Word “Footnote” formatting style, not by Zotero
-
Right click on the item and choose Retrieve Metadata and if that fails, Create Parent Item. Metadata retrieval should be automatic—check the General panel in Zotero settings and be sure the box is checked

You shouldn’t need to add tex. here — @emilianoeheyns
-
You could install the Better BibTeX plugin and then use its export format. It should handle this automatically
