  • Zotero has no 'review article' type. Please give full citation info or a link to a page where we can download citation info & the citation style you're using.
  • @parrenin: In zotero preference, click the 'Cite' tab at the top. Then click the 'Styles' tab just below that top bar. Unselect 'include URLs of paper articles in references'. Finally, insure that the item you're citing is correctly typed as a journ…
  • What are the exact changes you think need to be made & what is your source for deciding that they should be changed?
  • New character requests come infrequently enough that we have just added them as they are requested. There's a pull request for this one and the other Czech ringed characters. Note also that various BibTeX reimplementations should be able to use yo…
  • We likely don't replace that entity because it is less common & nobody has encountered it yet (many people use a unicode-enabled toolchain these days). The proper entity that likely needs to be added is: \r u
  • No. An export is not a backup. Follow the instructions at that link. Or, in German: https://www.zotero.org/support/de/zotero_data
  • For that style, Zotero should be including periods in the journal abbreviation if they are present (see the first example reference on the Zotero style site, for example). However, Zotero will not add periods if they are missing. This is because the…
  • But also note that many PDFs do follow the title-less style. See, e.g. the very first article I saw on the site: http://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/journal/jap/118/21/10.1063/1.4936595 http://scitation.aip.org/docserver/fulltext/aip/journal/jap…
  • Printed citation styles often differ from the style requested for submitted articles. Unless we receive editorial guidance to the contrary, we defer to the author instructions. The AIP guide for authors does not include titles for numeric styles: h…

  • I'm not in linux ATM, but perhaps using the middle-click paste buffer would be a decent work-around.
  • Citations that have been compacted may be hard to find (as can citations that you've edited). Use Word's reveal codes functionality (alt+F9) & look again for the citation. As a last resort, you can probably use the edit bibliography function to…
  • Snice one has an issue number and the other does not, I'd guess this came from having a duplicate reference in your database (possibly in agroup library?) or an olderreference that you cited then deleted. Remove this and regenerate the bibliography…
  • You can't using stock zotero. You can try to use the functionality that is in juris-m: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/35987/import-old-zotero-bibliography-from-word-field-codes-still-present-into-library/
  • The MODS imports with the ISBN. The unAPI import lacks an ISBN, but has a short title. So my guess is that unAPI is pulling in a different format. I need to check more.
  • What else do you need to delete? My understanding was that you were just removing the word plugin and this should be very straight forward. It sounds like you're trying to delete other things and mayhave browsers orother programs to close in additio…
  • Zotero can't import TEI. Ideally, you should use a format Zotero can import. If re-export is not possible, you may need to convert the TEI to something like MODS XML using a third-party tool.
  • You should close word completely and delete it from explorer (the file manager that comes up when you hit windows-e).
  • If EndNote is addressing any of the issues re. missing metadata that caused you to raise this issue better, it'd be nice to understand how it did so. But what do you mean this "import[s] properly in EndNote"? The sample reference you provided lack…
  • What is an example of a URL you are saving from and which connector are you using? Have you referred to: https://www.zotero.org/support/getting_stuff_into_your_library and tried sites that are known to have working translators?
  • If Zotero did something other than what a user told it to do, then there would be a bug to fix. But the current understanding is that this likely occurred because someone used the citation editor and Zotero worked as designed to allow those changes…
  • There are certainly edge cases where one may want a customized citation that has multiple bibliographic entries. Assuming this was because the user modified the citation from within the zotero word processor plugin, it is not an easy problem. How do…
  • If the intended change was to edit which item was cited, it'd be best to use the "Add/Edit Citation" button, which would allow you to remove the item and then add a new one. EDIT: I missed the dontUpdate tag. This is likely an instance of user erro…
  • Lots of reasons. Opening the database takes time and there is some stuff that needs to be cached when the database is first opened for improved responsiveness. The database also needs to be written to immediately when you click on the "save to Zote…
  • Opening the database and closing it does not come free and that is what would be needed. And the builtin background syncing is really useful. There seems to be no other driver for this except to use a configuration that is actively discouraged and…
  • Again: what were the steps taken to "replace" the citation? Also note that most styles condense numbering. Your approach would not find e.g. [3,6] or [4-8]. Read from the first citation of 5 until the first citation of 7 in detail. Use the reveal …
  • Have you tried removing the inserted paragraph completely and then rebuilding the bibliography? This should be done in a version where no manual edits gave been made to the bibliography. Also name sure it really isn't cid elsewhere in the document. …
  • I understand that you're frustrated that the URL changed when you changed the group name, but let's attack that problem head-on by properly informing the group admin that the group name will be used for the URL and changes to the group name may chan…
  • @adamsmith: FWIW, That's what I had done to get detectImport to trigger, but I still was not able to import anything. Did the multiple references actually import for you after you did this?
  • But, to be clear, you should likely NOT RESET in this particular case. Initiating a standard sync should, hopefully, start the bi-directional sync so that all references in the client are put on the server and vice versa. At worst, it should give …
