@pbinkley, thanks for clarifying. That helps to understand why COinS is as it is. I really hope some UnAPI/RDF implementation will come along that makes it dead easy to embed citation metadata on the web.

The iPad is a closed system. Apple controls what can be installed. Most applications cannot be installed. However, you can edit your Zotero library using the web interface (http://www.zotero.org/yourusername/items/) and you can use a plugin like Zot…

Does that mean that tags actually are group-specific? Then proposal #2 seems to be even more important.

I support ajlyon's suggestion.

Thanks. And apologies for the bumps, especially if this was noted somewhere in trac — I don't look there because I try to having too many accounts and places to check. For forum users like me it is always somewhat difficult to know whether something…

This is true. Zotero thinks of "date added" as "date added to the library". Collections are more of a transient organizational thing in Zotero logic, so "date added to collection" is not recorded. But unless you are using a very particular orderin…

Another gentle bump because I'd like to know whether this has been noted.
-
I put this thread in the Website category. I would like to reiterate the importance of this. Zotero will get better documentation if the process of editing is made easier. Forcing people to append some code to a URL for logging in discourages poten…

(Gentle bump, prompted by this issue. This would be a nice three birds and one stone thing.)

Yes, it works now. Thank you.

Still the same 500 error. This time on a different PC, different network again so it seems not to be a problem on my end. There is nothing special about the picture BTW, this is it.
-
Narrowing down: it happens while trying to upload a group picture.
-
This is exactly what the Zotfile plugin does. Install it, you'll love it.

It sounds like sherylw83 is trying to download Zotero for Firefox, but is using Internet Explorer to do it. Sheryl, for the current version of Zotero you need to install a different browser first, Firefox, which you can download at the link given by…

Sweet, thanks.

Duh. Overlooked that. Still, that does seem to be a good case of a programmer's type of interface, not a user's kind of interface. Anytime a user searches for X in a parent field (like Title) and Y in a child field (like Attachment Content), surely…

Also some items still use the old layout, which can be quite problematic for notes. Example: https://www.zotero.org/groups/csl_styles_development/items/KJPA6K3R
-
The starting page of groups still uses the old layout which does not distinguish between attachments and top level items and which is inconsistent with the new library look. "Recent additions" can be pretty useful but not in this way. It would be ni…
-
Search "attachment content" for PDF fulltext content. But I agree with you that saving a "quicksearch" type search would be useful.
-
This is a sensible suggestion. It should be possible to do a search over all fields, also in Advanced Search, and then to save that search. +1

Really keen to have a seemless way of using Zotero on a tablet - so thanks to all of you for working on this. Holding off on purchasing a device until I feel confident that Zotero will work for a non-expert. There is already one way in which it work…

Gee. As noted elsewhere it seems I'm running into FF3.6 issues. This is my office computer. I'll ask for an update.
-
Thanks. I must be running into FF3.6.3 issues then. I will ask my system admins for an update.
-
Hey I am trying to use Mendeley. Search faster than Zotero at least. What about the MS word plug-in, will it mess up with the one go with Zotero? It will not exactly mess up but it will not solve your problem of missing citations either. At the mo…
-
From the thread you linked it appears you have problems with lost items due to having an old backup. I don't see how switching to another reference manager would help solve that problem. Just so you know, these are not things that normally happen --…
-
It sounds like you restored an older version (the one you backed up) and therefore lost recent additions to your library. If you did not make a backup of those recent additions it is understandable that they cannot be found while working with the pa…
-
I like ajlyon's suggestion.
-
My experience with EndNote (before I switched to Zotero) is that separate libraries are one of the few ways of organizing references. In Zotero that's all different — you can simply create different collections and cross-categorize items with tags, …

15. Somehow the "suppress author" checkbox in the QF bar doesn't respond to clicks quickly following each other. This is only noticeable when you do a double-click, which should double-toggle the checkmark (on then off) but instead has the effect of…
