No problem. But you can in fact open the .bib file with Zotero. But what would you expect Zotero to do with it, if not import it? A .bib file is recognized by zotero as a source of references. Zotero is not a general file viewer.
-
That is what I tried to explain above -- your system is set up to open .bib files with Zotero. Assuming you are on windows, right-click the .bib file, click "open with", and select anything else than Zotero -- notepad would do. Again, this has noth…
-
Are you double-clicking the file expecting to be able to view it, and is Zotero asking to import it? That has nothing to do with BBT or with Zotero, that's just how you have or haven't configured your OS to open .bib files; if Zotero is set up to be…

I'm don't understand in what way BetterBibTeX (which is not a standalone program) is supposed to show a bib file? I take it you exported some part of your library to a .bib file in your downloads folder using the BBT translator, but what did you do …

The WHO vs the Who is hilarious. How is that not unambiguously the worldwide health organization vs the band?

It's the time since the previous logged message.
-
If you synced them, yes. If not, no.
-
I cannot read those reports unfortunately, but I don't usually need a crash log to get a diagnosis. I get the most information if you restart Zotero with debug logging on (in the help menu), let it start up (which in your case, unfortunately, might…
-
If it does, please let me know on github. "the past few days" coincides with the release of BBT 5.4.28. My test suite includes a cold-start startup test (worst case scenario where all citekeys need to be regenerated) with 24k items and I've not seen…

Zotero doesn't support math, so as far as Zotero is concerned, this is just text. You can sort of work around this using BBT, either by wrapping that title in ... or by having that applied automatically. If you import $({\mathrm{Ba}}_{1\ensuremath{…

Regarding "Unfortunately, this can cause formatting issues with exported to e.g. BibTex. Typically, it creates large spaces around words and makes the bibliography largely unintelligible.", I wonder what you're using to render the bibtex, because I'…

The message "BBT: loaded content/LinkLocalFiles.ts" is not actually from bbt, it is from zotero-link-local-files where I forgot to remove this message,from the logging module I copied over.
-
1. see https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/90837/brackets-around-words-in-bib-exports#latest. 2. the braces are actually the right thing to do, and if your bibtex run is producing errors for those, you'll want to address the errors that it report…

It's always easier to go from sentence case to title case, that's why Zotero has the titles in sentence case. If you open Tools -> Developer -> Run Javascript, check "Run as async function", and paste in this code function sentenceCase(text…
-
It's possible but I wouldn't advice it. The sentence case algorithm is very naive, and you need to check the results. It just blithely lowercases all words that are not at sentence start, so all proper nouns get lowercased too.
-
They're not actually correct in zotero; zotero expects them to be sentence cased, not title cased, and bibliographies as rendered in word can be wrong because of this. Right-click the title and select "sentence case", that will fix it.
-
Hi Dan, we've looked at this extensively for close to a month (wow I had no idea we were on this for so long) and it was a hail-mary to just try without BBT installed... and the problem remained for Bob. I have not been able to recreate the problem …
-
My pleasure. It's a one-line change to add the LB line to RIS, the rest is just the latest RIS translator I grabbed from zotero's github repo just now.
-
Ah, I think you mean this. That modded translator requires BBT to be installed. I've made a new copy that doesn't overwrite the standard RIS translator but adds a new one ("RIS with citation key"): https://gist.github.com/0fbc09d7d6556ebae595e5c8491…
-
The link you included just links to adamsmith's profile. I've forgotten what I did to the translator then and I probably don't have a copy, but if you can link to the thread where we discussed this I can take a look.
-
Next release of BBT will support this behavior.
-
I know it is nitpicking, but that title should lose the outer quotes, and the family name does not need the extra braces.
-
@iagogv how would you expect to see these preprints expressed in biblatex?
-
I thought the comment earlier meant the stock tex exporters also reacted to that setup.
-
@bwiernik if I export a Report with a Type: article line in extra with the stock BibLaTeX exporter I just get a report, and the Type: article in a note field
-
They're in the Zotero preferences, so they'll end up in the prefs.js in your Zotero profile dir.
-
With a BBT postscript: if (Translator.BetterTeX) reference.add({ name: 'key', value: item.itemKey }) but the key is only unique to the library, not across library/groups.
-
I haven't ever dealt with creating/modifying a bib(la)tex style, so I'm not of much help here.
-
For automatic exports you select the format when you set it up at first export. If you export over your existing file, but choose better bibtex rather than better biblatex, check "keep updated", and export, the existing auto-export will be replaced.…
-
You should let zotero manage the extensions, it won't work otherwise. If the extensions are appearing in the "my documents" folder (which is what you mean, right? Not that they are appearing in a Word document?) that indicates your zotero profile is…
