Not entirely, because this obviously depends on the magic power of this "predefined server/site". How is Zotero to know which PDF it should download from where? However, the 'Locate' button may be of help here - see documentation and known resolve…
-
The only way in which this can happen is by deleting the copied reference, not from the original collection, but from your library. Right-click any reference in one of your collections and you see two distinct delete options: "Remove selected item" …
-
Just a note on that last thing: properly speaking that is not a Zotero GUI issue, but rather a Word Processor plugin GUI issue.
-
Welcome to the forums! Don't use 'Create New Item from the Current Page', that saves a snapshot of the Citeseer page as you're looking at it rather than importing the bibliographic info of the reference. If you're on the page you link to, you will…
-
For those fields, JSTOR is usually excellent. Do note that you can save references from the Google Scholar results without displaying the articles citing the work you're searching for. However, I find that GS often offers incomplete metadata. JSTOR …

Screen size is a major factor, though. I guess Zotero won't be in good shape on anything less than 1024 pixels wide.
-
Perhaps a dumb question, but can you run FF on your tablet? If not, you cannot run Zotero.
-
Wizfolio's import from clipboard function is different from cb2bib though in that it performs a lookup of the references in Pubmed rather than trying to parse the formatted bibliography itself. At least that's what I gather from this page.
-
Isn't this the same issue as the one I reported here? To reproduce: You type or paste the Title and hit enter or tab to go to the Author field; you type the first letters of the surname, select the right author from the shortlist, and there is no ti…

I think aa, ab, ac is indeed the most sensible solution.
-
Given the range of journals I work on (App.Phys.Lett., Jou.Mag.Mag.Mat., Phys.Rev.B,....) I do not hope much for automatic recognition Do check the translators page to get an idea of how many sites are supported by Zotero. That's not all; as it says…
-
You'll need to do something like they did in this thread.
-
Try left clicking in the note field and using the CTRL+V keyboard shortcut to paste the text.
-
It will work only if you have no other attachments than PDFs (if an item has a snapshot and a PDF attached, it will be displayed in the advanced search for non-PDFs). However, erazlogo in this thread points out a way to do it right. Not worth inves…

Thanks for that PDF search tip. Very clever! It does kind of prove my point though that the current flat structure of advanced search is far from intuitive. Search for title [contains] ".zip" to find zip files. Searching by title also searches attac…
-
Concerning paper files, I do this a lot for paper stuff I get through interlibrary loans. There is no quick and easy way obviously, although it helps to have the bibliographic metadata in your Zotero database before adding the PDF (since you'll want…
-
Dukesyr: the Zotero library is your database, which should always have as complete information as possible. When citing stuff, Zotero uses styles to manipulate the layout of actual citations so you don't have to worry about that; just make sure you …
-
Very nice ticket; I think it would solve the problem, which is basically a UI issue. It had occurred to me too that the source of the PDF would not necessarily be the canonical location.
-
See the feature requests in this thread.
-
Seconded! The Zotero people are doing a great job.
-
Why, because Presenter may be someone else than Author? I think about it as the creator of the work. A speech read on behalf of A should still be attributed to A. So the name 'Presenter' may be confusing here, but I don't think it makes sense to add…
-
Amc's request is similar to my point (2) in this thread: (2) Is there a place where I can keep track of variants of names that refer to one and the same entity, and where I can clean those up? At the moment, no, but an author list view and batch edi…
-
Presentation. See this thread.
-
I also had a try a few weeks ago, until I bumped into the problem in the thread James is linking to. The result so far can be downloaded here: aaa-imperfect.csl.
-
Great overview, Simon. With such a large dataset I find the use of the 'search' field very irritating. This field acts more like a dynamic filter; type 'a' and it filters the data to only show those with 'a', type 'ab' it only shows references with …
-
Okay, I replied over there.
-
I have not entirely the same issue: all three dates are correct for main items. The first Javascript snippet reports 1 and I'm in GMT +1 indeed; the second correctly reports the current time. For attachments however the 'Accessed' value is one ho…
-
we do know of some timezone/timestamp-related bugs on Windows that can cause erroneous re-uploads and that we haven't found solutions for yet. I think I'm running into those, for yesterday client 2 has uploaded some 400 unchanged files, which client…
-
Click on the title will change the title into an input field, where you can make changes. Clicking outside of the input field will save the changes.
-
My current sense WRT to the latter is that an item without a date cannot and should not be disambiguated in this way, ... I fail to see the distinction between works with and without a date WRT disambiguation. Why should a date get a,b and n.d. not?
