Many publishers have separate pages for chapters. If they do, import from there. Each chapter might also have its own DOI, you can import each using the magic wand tool. If not, the Zutilo plugin adds an option to “Create Book Section from book it…

Open the style in a text editor. Search for name-as-sort-order and delete all the places where that occurs. Change the style title and ID at the top to anything else. Save and install into Zotero.

It will be a completely separate type. You would want to edit your CSL style to add classic next to book where needed
-
What do you mean by (1)?

So to echo what adamsmith says, this is correct APA style. The letters are ordered by alphabetical appearance in the bibliography (have been since APA 5th Ed)
-
The retrieval date is only included in APA style references if the item has a URL and it has neither a publication date or a status. This is intended to align with APA’s rule that the retrieval date should be included if the website is updated frequ…

Installing a trial version of Parallels on your Mac and running Word in a Windows virtual machine is also an option

If you are writing in TeX or Markdown, you should use the BetterBibTeX plugin. That is where detailed support for this writing workflow lives, particularly for fields that are not used as part of the standard BibLaTeX styles (of which entrysubtype i…

It’s possible that the WSJ app isn’t showing the full standard iOS Share sheet. Zotero would appear next to the Messages icon and the AirDrop icon. Do you see those? Otherwise, tap around into some of the submenus to find those. Is there a button th…

If you are trying to write in TeX using Zotero, you should install the BetterBibTeX plugin and use its output formats. The built-in BibLaTeX export in Zotero is mostly intended as a data exchange format. (And note that if you are actually writing …

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?
