Something like a preflight check has been often discussed but instead Zotero has implemented after the fact duplicate detection that works reasonably smoothly: https://www.zotero.org/support/duplicate_detection There has been talk of a plugin to do…
-
Just revisiting to note that there are still 230 items listed in my 'duplicate items' that are all non-resolvable non-duplicates with item type differences, making the duplicate items impossible to navigate and nearly useless...
-
Wow. Zotero continues to surprise and improve. Folks making suggestions often don't take the time to report back when stuff is implemented, so I want to just take a minute to say, thank you for your tireless work on Zotero, Dan! It is highly appreci…

Thanks!
-
+1 — that is an excellent idea. For items that zotero won't merge because of item type differences, either (i) don't show them in Duplicate Items to start with or (ii) give users the option to hide them the first seems to hit the #papercut sweet sp…

Came here to say this, glad to see others have reported and it's on the way to being fixed! Thanks for your work as ever @dstillman!
-
Yup, just to update my estimate from 4 years back: I now have aboug 235 items in my "Duplicates" pane that are not, in fact, duplicates and so it's only become harder to spot genuine new duplicates.

The American English pronunciation in the podcast is provided in the blog post linked above (which I wrote 13 years ago): [ˌzɔˈtɛɹoʊ] (zoh-TER-o) Though as a linguist I would note that there need not be a single "definitive" pronunciation; people a…

It's a shame the user contributed macro doesn't work on all systems or Zotero setups. It's definitely possible that some people need this feature so badly that they'd switch to an inferior (less open, less user friendly, more profit-driven) app jus…
-
Just an update for future reference: ZotPress does now present downloads with their original attachment filename.
-
@adamsmith what? Worlds collide. Need to check out that Zotero integration in RStudio, had no idea (most of my collaborative writing still happens in Word and/or Overleaf)
-
This depends on your software stack and the environment in which you'd like to write. For instance, I've been able to use Zotero Better Bibtex to write papers in Rmarkdown; see here: https://fishandwhistle.net/post/2020/getting-started-zotero-bette…

I, too, happily pay for unlimited storage (and have been for years) to support Zotero. But I recognize that not all may have the budget to do so. Zotero has shifted the price points and storage amounts in the past to make them more in line with expe…

Also note that Group Libraries basically exist for this purpose, so rather than laboriously switching profiles you might try to stick with your personal profile and create a shared group library for the references shared between colleagues.
-
I guess the main question you need to answer is how you would want to cite this, and how your intended citation style handles the item type you're using. Because there is no point in having a complete set fields if the CSL style is just going to ove…
-
Can you describe in more detail —step by step— what you're trying to do? E.g. where exactly are you "choosing 30 titles"? If you're trying to insert a large number of references at once you should probably not use the "insert citation" tool. But si…
-
This is amazing @fbcx, thank you. I wasn't aware we could customize the CSS like this, and it makes a huge difference indeed for the experience of writing notes.
-
Yes! Thanks for confirming. Somewhat surprisingly this information was kind of hard to find, perhaps because the search terms are so generic.
-
For the record, I am in the humanities, and I am aware that it is 'big' in some scholarly communities. Read the post carefully and consider whether it is worth being part of it.
-
Sorry, I wasn't clear (and should probably not have hijacked the thread). I rather want to disable the automatic sorting by author last name that APA has by default. I.e. I want cites in the order I enter them, or redrag them, and I don't want the s…
-
What is the CSL code responsible for this? I want to make an APA spinoff with this option disabled, but am having some trouble locating it in the CSL code. I see lots of `name-sort-as` in a bunch of macros and also a `sort` statement in the `citat…
-
This is a problem caused by Academia.edu generally being very slapdash about bibliographic metadata. Even if some Zotero angels help you download the PDF, the metadata would most likely be incomplete. Essentially they're a walled garden with no inte…
-
I think the utility of this feature (which everyone agrees would be nice) is rated very differently based on what one is used to and how one writes. In over a decade of using Zotero (for >50 papers and a thesis) I've never really missed it dearly…
-
The web library has become really good in recent years, so I suppose one solution is to open the web library at zotero.org/[yourusername]/items. As far as I understand you can have that open in multiple tabs. Of course they won't support dragging fr…
-
Word doesn't have all the possibilities that Zotero offers, so the two systems are not compatible. I would put my money on convincing the other person to use Zotero :)
-
Revisiting this old thread for a related issue: the translator works now, but I've noticed it saves only the metadata (via the DOI translator). The only other available translator is Web Page. How could we make Zotero also save the freely available …
-
Thank you for that link to the Zettelkasten primer — I was aware of the method but that's a wonderful explanation.
-
I don't unlink (and you're right: that is usually only done at the very last moment, in the to be submitted version of the file). I don't think the "saving under a new name" is the only thing that happens here — they must be using a different forma…
-
We have no access to your example.

What's the software the supervisor uses to edit the draft? In most of my collaborations, even with folks who don't use Zotero, I don't run into this problem. They have to do something special (like work in a different Word processor or mess with the…
