  • Thanks, super helpful. You're absolutely right about manual edits, they were done 'on the fly' and became a huge hassle. Having reverted all edits, though, I'm still left with the dashed underlining. The auto-update is disabled, which is what must…
    in Underlining in Citations Comment by t0nnb July 1, 2020
  • Thanks—you were right about the updating, in part, as it did ask if I wanted to conserve changes I'd made. The problem is: I've waited for over an hour since the last notification and even the first citations are still underlined. I've read that d…

  • Thank you, much appreciated. I ended up reinstalling Zotero, restarting computer, and doing this and it now seems to be working normally, for the shorter doc at least, haven't yet tried the long one but will try to avoid that! Thanks again, very h…
    in zotero very slow in long document Comment by t0nnb July 1, 2019
  • I'm reopening this thread because I've run into the same problem, using the latest MS Word on a Mac. Working with a long doc and. Very. Very. Extremely. Excruciatingly. Slow! After reading this through I cut and pasted the sections into separate do…
    in zotero very slow in long document Comment by t0nnb June 30, 2019
  • Hi so sorry I didn't respond to this at the time. It's about a thousand items, more or less, so a bit much to do manually if possibly avoidable. I've done some basic coding in other languages but admit I find the javascript stuff fairly intimidati…

  • Yep, I quit all apps, made the latest update to word, restarted the computer, tried again. It's now very slightly better (in the sense that it actually makes a citation) but is still very very slow. I also tried in a new doc, which seems to be…

  • The ID I listed above was while trying to add a citation (that was yesterday, and it still hasn't completed it). I'll quit zotero and word and try again, both in a blank doc and the one I'm working on. Hopefully that helps narrow the problem down.

  • The wordcount is circa 12k, with (as a guess) 40-50 citations. Perhaps also relevant is that some of the elements of the doc have been merged from previous docs, including part of one that was done with a different ref manager. I did try on a blank …
