No, that's not currently possible, but at CSL we are aware of the issue and hope to address in a future version.

When you make a parent item with the Create Parent Item function, it sets the title to be the file name of the attachment. If that is already what you want, you’re good to go. If you have more than the title in the file name but entered in a struc…

CSL styles are simple xml files, so you can edit them in any text editor. A text editor such as Atom that can do live validation against the CSL Relax-Ng Schema can be useful. https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/citation_styles/style_editing_step-by…

There is no widespread issue with the Create Bibliography function in the current version of Zotero. Restart Zotero. If it persists, can you take a screenshot of your Create Bibliography window settings, post to Dropbox or similar, and give a link…

I suggest a group library. If you want, you could treat it as an “inbox” and drag the items to your My Library and delete afterward.
-
How citations are disambiguated is controlled by the citation style, so we would need to know a specific style you think isn’t doing this correctly.
-
As a general comment, if you are doing legal citation, you probably want to use Jurism and CSL-M styles. Jurism is a version of Zotero with much expanded legal citation support. It can automatically collapse parallel citations such as this. https:…

The Zotero.sqlite is what is most important. If you are syncing, if the attachments were lost, Zotero could redownload them from the server. If you aren’t syncing, although you might not care if storage were lost, it might be rather annoying if it w…

Zotero does not have such a feature, but perhaps a user wrote a LibreOffice macro to do so.
-
@dstillman I also had a crash during initial sync when I tried to add an annotation. Would it be possible to add collapsing to the Safari Share sheet saving? And start with libraries collapsed?

See details for how to request a new style here https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/REQUESTING.md

I suggest colored tags for this. When I do a systematic review, I have a yellow tag for “coded” and a red tag for “rejected”. https://zotero.org/support/collections_and_tags#colored_tags

That would be great.
-
Similarly, in the Safari Connector collection/library interface, some more distinction between libraries and possibility of collapsing collections would be good
-
Does it persist if you change to a different style and back?
-
The ampersand character isn’t customizable by language, so we would need to do a custom style. Can you show an example of what you want it to look like
-
You can identify the collection an item is in by following these instructions. https://www.zotero.org/support/collections_and_tags#identifying_collections_an_item_is_in Note that you really shouldn’t delete items or remove them from collections. J…

This is not possible with Zotero itself, but if you search around the forums, you can find some user-supplied Word macros that can accomplish this.
-
Email storage@zotero.org with details and they can provide guidance.
-
The best way to do punctuation like this is to put it as a delimiter on a group. Take a look at the bibliography for APA style for example.
-
@a.abdul-rahman For your systematic review, you should create a new Group library that is entirely separate from any other libraries.
-
@a.abdul-rahman For a systematic review, I suggest leaving items all in their original import collections so that those numbers can be counted later. You should _merge_ (not delete) duplicate items using the Duplicate Items view (right click on the …
-
Why exactly are you exporting and importing? Note that that is not an appropriate way to transfer a Zotero library between computers. https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/transferring_a_library
-
No field updates have yet been made for technical reasons. Note that you can currently add fields to items using the Extra field as deceived above and many website import translators will save DOIs if present. Field updates are planned for the next …
-
The Zotero APA style follows the APA manual for both of these rules. Note that the rules from the manual are: 1. If two items are written by authors with the same last name but different first names, add initials to differentiate them. (See this p…
-
We can look into that. @adamsmith Do you have some time for that?
-
If you have more questions in the future, non-English languages are fine too
-
Yeah reading and writing with a stylus. I don’t care about handwriting recognition, but being able to mark up with a stylus would be immensely useful for me.
-
I’d suggest just searching in Google Scholar for the author and seeing how their name appears on their other publications.
