A Standard item is planned. For now, you can tell Zotero an item is a standard by putting this in Extra: Type: standard That will be cited correctly for styles that support it, but note that most styles haven’t been updated to handle standards spe…

If you just want to generate a BibTeX file based on the citekeys used in a document, BBT has a function that can do that. Check out the rbbt R package for an example https://github.com/paleolimbot/rbbt (As an aside, if you are writing in markdown a…

It is correct APA style to add additional authors like this when two different author teams would be reduced to the same “Bishop et al.” Additional names are added until the citations are no longer ambiguous.
-
If you email storage@zotero.org with details, they may be able to give you some usage information for various users in your group
-
Doing the final citation format on a windows computer might be helpful
-
That long will probably take a while with many citations. But Zotero should be able to work, but Word for Mac is probably going to slow to a crawl and/or crash. Personally, I would just ignore the APA disambiguation rule. It is often ignored, even…

Once you have finished writing, you can combine the chapters together in one file, then add the bibliography
-
One option is to select all the items in the library, export to CSV, and then open the exported file in a spreadsheet program like Excel. Tags are one column of that file, so you can search and sort from there
-
Okay, cool, thanks!
-
Can you describe a bit the change in technology? (To help with support questions)
-
You can sort items by Date Added and Date Modified by right-clicking on the column headings and adding those fields. I don’t know what you mean by your first point. Can you clarify?
-
Folks, the Zotero developers can’t fix the issue if you don’t describe detailed steps to reproduce the issue. It’s not helpful to just say “also getting the same error message”. They need to know steps to reproduce that.
-
My point is that the marking them as non-duplicates doesn’t fix the core problem that the item data is very wrong. An ISBN is a unique identifier for a book. If two books have the same identifier, a database should and will treat them as the same bo…

A published item should either be a Journal Article or a Conference Paper, generally. If the ArXiV page has journal or conference information, it should be entered as a Journal Article or Conference Paper, not as a Preprint
-
Use a working sci-hub url. The .se URL frequently does not work
-
If two book items have the same ISBN but are different (eg, because they are actually chapters), that’s a case of bad data in the library. The solution is to correct the data, not try to work around the incorrectly imported data
-
You can also use the Zutilo plugin to set a different shortcut key
-
You don’t need to download/reupload. You can open a document in Word Desktop from the online interface or sync to your computer using the OneDrive/Sharepoint/Teams Sync button
-
You should use Journal Article. Whether Series or Series Title is included depends on the citation style. What style are you using?
-
You’re mistaken, @ash123456789. Rule 8.14 of the APA manual says that the in-text citations for items without authors should be the title, followed by the year. If the title is italicized in the references list, it is also italicized in-text. If t…

What citation style are you using?
-
The function in citeproc-js is checkNestedBraces(). Looking at the code, that function is always applied and doesn’t have a toggle. CSL or CSL-M don’t currently have a style parameter to control the flipping of nested braces. Perhaps try to enter …
-
Just insert another citation in your document and add the same item, or copy and paste an existing citation elsewhere in your document
-
Chicago style uses title case for English titles, so the issue is the style you are using. You would need to either choose a different style or edit the style to change the case it uses.
-
If you are using an iPad, use the official Zotero iPad app instead. Otherwise, you want to use the Send to Tablet and Retrieve from Tablet functions from Zotfile. This should not create 2 different versions of the file.
-
The data that Zotero imports for an ISBN is determined by what the publisher registers, so any issues would be from that end
-
Zotpress should be able to do this for you
-
And to repeat my comment above, it is correct APA style to include the initials when multiple cited authors share the same surname but are different people
-
If you want to display the HTML code, wrap it in tags
-
Annotations are automatically extracted by Zotero’s PDF reader now, so using Zotfile’s function is no longer required
