I disagree. From a reader's point of view (and that is what print bibliographies are made for) it's a nice style, easily parsable and even typographically pleasing. Grouping references by authors is a design choice that makes perfect sense (even fro…

It still hinges on a few necessary changes to the CSL processor in Zotero. Bruce d'Arcus mentions three open tickets: 1324, 1325, and 933. All of them have priority 'minor', though, so perhaps we need to lobby more.
-
What I often do, also for manuscripts in .doc format sent to me by colleagues, is make a PDF and attach it to my Zotero item. Not just to make it indexable by Zotero, but also because old formats may go awry or fonts may become obsolete. PDFs will s…

It is working for me in 2.0b5 though. What OS? Which Firefox version?
-
See tip #8 of my 12 must know Zotero tips and techniques.
-
It is working for me. Is your pdf fulltext indexing set up and working correctly?
-
In my 2500 item library, response times are annoyingly slow for such fields as Place and Publisher, where Zotero is presumably doing a lookup for the autocomplete function. The effect is that I type the first letter, wait four seconds for Firefox to…

Keith, with the nice goodies you´ve thrown in (like Collapse search results and a dedicated Zotero window) perhaps you should consider giving your plugin a more general name. Right now, automatic renaming of drag-dropped files doesn't seem to work …
-
FYI, Zotz development seems to have stalled. A March 13th mailinglist message by David Karger reads: The more important point is that right at this moment, we don't have anyone assigned to work on Zotz, because we don't have the funding necessary to…

Can the Zotero error message here not be made more informative, e.g. by giving the line numbers of the problems in the input file?
-
That's interesting: [ERROR: not an error].
-
Wheee! Works beautifully. Thanks.
-
Good. I have the same error (#200957641), on a client which I just updated to 2.03b and now wanted to sync to my other client. Eagerly waiting for the fix, for it's preventing me from syncing.
-
Perhaps this falls under one of the known issues; that page does mention that "File drag-and-drop is broken on Linux".
-
(You can tell by looking at the URL. It should be a static URL without variable strings.)
-
This depends on the type of link. Some website do not offer a direct, physical link to the PDF file but instead to some script that serves the PDF file. The Zotero drag and drop interface cannot handle the latter so these are passed on to Firefox.
-
I see. Certainly your NULL is the most likely candidate then. I hope they'll get to it soon.
-
Could it be related to when the item was added? Jon, I thought that too for a minute but adding the oldest references in my library (Nov 2007) didn't crash it.
-
Also, Zotero is doing way too much work here. FF locks down for a full 20 seconds after dragging three items from a collection to a group library. I'll have to avoid it until the bugs are ironed out...
-
However, sometimes it also has to do with the sheer number of items. Dragging one item to a new group library worked; dragging 500 resulted in a crash.
-
I first got an error report, but after retrying it worked.
-
This issue is similar to Mryckman's. It is limited to certain items. These first two work fine: Croft, William, and Keith T. Poole. 2008. Inferring universals from grammatical variation: Multidimensional scaling for typological analysis. Theoretica…
-
Agreed with ahoward.
-
Another program that adds 'always on top' capabilities to every window on Windows is Dexpot, a virtual desktop manager.
-
This is indeed an indispensable bibliographic feature. Now that Zotero is coming of age, we do not want to be without it much longer. Hopefully when the syncing wrinkles are ironed out the devs get time for requests like this.
-
There is no danger in upgrading to 1.5 right now. I've been using it for the last few months with a library of 2000+ items. Do note though that 1.5 requires a new version of the Word plugin, and that this involves upgrading the citations in your doc…
-
Hadaxu's suggestion sounds more user friendly to me. First time users would be helped by this. It would still be there in the preferences of course.
-
And if you're not viewing the PDF in the browser, but you do have a direct link to the file, you can simply drag that link onto the entry in Zotero.
-
Besides, Zotero is stretchy too :) — just try it on a widescreen.
