Got it. I can work with that, that's a good use-case too, but patching copySelectedItemsToClipboard for ctrl-shift-A would require duplicating much of that function because of the place where the return is, and I'd prefer not to do that. What @sfdsf…
-
It's copySelectedItemsToClipboard. getContentFromItems doesn't get called for export-mode quickcopy, it either calls Zotero_File_Interface.exportItemsToClipboard or does a simple return when asCitations is true-ish.
-
I saw something different, but if modified there is the difference between the ctrl-shift-A and ctrl-shift-C, that's feasible to patch (even if I would personally advocate for a 2nd translator option).
-
For context for this request, the function that handles the shortcuts (which for the life of me I can't find right now) has a return deep in the "ctrl-shift-A + translator" branch that I can't hook into. If a call to a patchable noop function sat t…

Personally I'd follow the robustness principle. Be lenient in what you accept, be strict in what you dish out. bibtex is also often (ab)used as a data exchange format, and this is what @miyalatex found in the wild I take it. edit: upcoming version …
-
He's right, both for stock and BBT, but I don't think it's a translator issue. The error log says JavaScript Error: "Discarding invalid accessDate '29 November 2011' for item 1/null" which comes from the data/item.js, not the translator. edit: look…
-
It seems it already should import it: https://github.com/zotero/translators/blob/master/BibTeX.js#L457 (BBT already does too).
-
Turns out it was just a preference that got turned on at some point.
-
Apologies. I meant an oversight in BBT.
-
Could I ask how to open an issue? And what link is the BBT's project page on github please ? thanks a lot! https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/issues Strange why Zotero cannot inherently get “urldate” into “accessed date” while it exp…
-
If you want help with BBT you will have to open an issue on the project page on github. My support tooling is built around github issues.
-
You're welcome. Simple double newlines ought to work too.
-
The debs don't touch the data or profile dirs in any way BTW. It is safe to install/uninstall/reinstall the deb, or even alternately run the tarball/deb version, without affecting the Zotero data.
-
Not that I'm discounting these problems, but my 14yo picked up how to use Zotero in about 15-30 minutes for a highschool essay. And she's firmly from the app generation. Hardly ever turns on her PC. I'm with you on the delay between clicking the ico…
-
I think I've found the problem. A new BBT has just been released. Would still appreciate a confirmation that it solves your import issue.
-
Please do file an issue on the BBT project. We'll get it sorted.
-
They should import cleanly if you replace the newlines by \par, or double newlines. Single newlines are just spaces in LaTeX/BibTeX, and BBT will import them as such. Zotero RDF will also allow you to import notes respecting. BBT JSON will also imp…
-
I'm surprised that postscript worked? If that's the whole postscript, I don't know how tex.has.place could ever be true-ish.
-
If you want address you should export as bibtex, not biblatex. Better BibTeX will export address without any postscript. Better BibLaTeX exports it to venue or location. The standard Zotero BibLaTeX exporter also does not export address, the Zotero…
-
I haven't yet found an instance where hacking around in the BBT translators was necessary. A postscript can usually do what you want, and won't be obliterated by BBT upgrades.
-
I wasn't involved in the development of either, but if I'd have to guess, the "not reliably unique author-date combinations" was simpler to build, and RTF is a simpler format than ODF to manipulate. Then later Frank and Sebastian sat down to make it…
-
Rich Text Format and OpenDocument format (RDF is a different, not-related thing).
-
The copy-paste functionality from https://github.com/wshanks/Zutilo/blob/master/docs/USAGE.md may be able to do this.
-
The pin appears if the line in extra exists. So the windows side still has the pin and the line in extra, the linux side has neither, you have just synced both PCs, and nowhere in this process did you get a conflict resolution popup? I'd report that…
-
Does the pinned key appear in the extra field in one or both of the PCs? Pinned keys are just a line of text in the extra field. The extra field syncs. If the extra field does not sync, that would be a zotero bug. It is possible that you got a syn…
-
That means you haven't synced.
-
In a technical sense Zotero already does assign both a stable key and a stable number to items; the item key is exposed by BBT, but it is generated by Zotero, and the RTF/ODF scan plugin uses that key. You don't need BBT for this workflow, as you ca…
-
How did you format your answer? Why I can't format my text? Did I miss important instructions again? You can use HTML in your anwer. I used to mark the text I am responding to, and to highlight verbatim text or technical details. In practice I …
-
Just a note, it isn't the "item" as a whole, but the item key. In BBT, item is just shorthand for item(key). I have changed the text below accordingly. If Zotero can't display the item key in one column, it should be displayed by BBT. So, why Zoter…
