No those are the same. Sometimes they have additional qualifiers like “Honors thesis”
-
If you are writing with LaTeX, you should install the BetterBibTeX plugin and using its Better BibTeX or BetterBibLaTeX format. It has more sophisticated export of the myriad types of .bib theses
-
The language for Zotero citations and bibliography is controlled by the Document Preferences menu in the Zotero menu in Google Docs. All parts of Zotero integration are controlled by the Zotero menu, not any other part of Google Docs

Do you have a link to the journal guidelines? @damnation

@dstillman : @emilianoeheyns has implemented a sentence case conversion in BBT that is a little smarter than the one in Zotero native, namely it doesn’t change words with mixedCase or that are all-uppercase in an otherwise mixed case string. Would y…

Yes, just to reiterate, what you are seeing is correct APA style. Letters are only added for exactly the same author groups
-
You should store items in your Zotero library in sentence case and only uppercase proper nouns and the first word. You can right click on the title field to toggle sentence case. The title you showed should be stored as Rethinking lupus nephritis …

Not at citation insert time, but you can use Word's Find and Replace feature to search for ^d which will find all Fields, then you can apply whatever formatting you want with the Replace feature as a batch
-
I would personally recommend just citing the entire thesis as a whole and referring to "chapter 3" in text or like a page number in the citation. Readers looking to retrieve the citation will need to look for the thesis as a whole, so it makes sense…

What specific HTML features are you finding missing from your workflow?

Main style is updated on the repository
-
In general, you should use APA 7th edition, which uses the recommended format of https://doi.org/. Note that APA 7 has been published for over 3 years and all of the major APA-following journals have switched to it. If you do want to use APA 6th e…

Yep, that’s right. One thing: you don’t need the space before [ in the term. That’s added automatically for the et-al term in names
-
@damnation I won’t have a chance to get to this in the next few days, could you submit a pull request
-
The et-al element in CSL does not support prefix or suffix. The best workaround for this would be to redefine the “et al” term in the locale section of the style to be “[and others]”, then to use the “and others” term in the author-short macro and t…

A PR would be great. The best course of action I think is to put a macro into styles To handle both options as described here https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/issues/6151 Conditional testing for the presence of “event” is trickier,…
-
Currently the style is set to print number only if there is no page. On reflection, I agree @adamsmith that swapping the order of that check would make for more robust behavior with other styles. I’ll make that change
-
Use Report for that
-
Install the Zutilo plugin. It adds “Copy Zotero Select Link” to the right-click menu.
-
You should add those items as Linked Attachments, rather than stored attachments. Zotero does not sync linked attachments
-
@damnation Directing folks to the Zotero Style Editor in the Tools menu is another good option
-
Add by Identifier will import whatever the publisher provides to the DOI registrar. Most chapters import correctly. If one doesn’t, that should be reported to the publisher
-
Yes
-
My answer above applies
-
Typically searching the thesis title in regular Google is also a good start. As is going to the university’s library website
-
If you mean importing a thesis, if you can find a place where it’s hosted online, such as a university repository or ProQuest or Thesis Commons, Zotero can import metadata from there.
-
That surprises me it’s even possible and sounds like a weird bug
-
Those all sound good. The only only other Zutilo action does is accept the prompts about field changes/loss, which Zotero would obviously not have with a native solution
-
Sounds like https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/existing_citations_not_detected or https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/citations_underlined

Right-click → Duplicate Item → change to Book Section → Duplicate Item The Zutilo plugin adds an option to the right-click menu to do this whole sequence in one click
