  • Great. Thank you. It worked. I must have done something wrong. Can we make a further tweak regarding page numbers? In my footnotes for my modified MHRA style I have: 1. Claire Taylor Jones, ‘Prelude to the New World: The Role of Voice in Early P…

  • Thank you for the response. I've made the change you suggested in the CSL editor of Zotero Standalone. I get: Error parsing style: Error: File is not valid XML Regarding Hart's Rules, note it's Hart's Rules not Hart's Guide from the small publishi…

  • Thank you for the response. For MHRA I'd like the second and additional citations of the same author to look like: Smith, Battle of the Somme, 54 Rather than Smith, 54 Regarding Oxford, there a specific style for much of the University (in the …

  • The library you're looking at (1550 items) is a Zotero Standalone Library working with Safari. That one works fine I have a separate library working with Firefox (in a different location), which is the one giving me problems. No syncing on either …

  • Follow up: When I quick copy to a text document in Text Edit it seems to work fine. When I quick copy to LibreOffice it doesn't work - I get a white 'no entry' sign, rather than the green 'plus' sign. When I quick copy to the main text window in …
    in Drag and Dropping Citations Broken? Comment by loorung April 4, 2013
  • Thank you for your suggestion. I've upgraded to Zotero 4.0.3. I've also upgraded FF to 20.0 And I'm using a different family member's Mac with OS X 10.8.3 to make sure it's not my computer. I've also changed my Quick Copy settings, and I've disa…

  • Don't worry that's what I just did! Thanks for the concern. Zotero still working perfectly.

  • Thanks, I had a feeling that was the case. Unless anyone chirps in and warns otherwise, I'll delete them.

  • Anyone? I've been in contact with IT and the librarians at Oxford regarding SOLO. They are aware there used to be a problem with Zotero and SOLO after SOLO was upgraded to Primo 3, which is now fixed, not sure they can do anything their end abo…

  • I've just tried it on Safari. I get the same error. The translator on Safari works with all my other sites. So the problem is localised to the SOLO / Bodleian translator working with either Safari or Chrome (but not Firefox).

  • I've now just tested it with the built-in version of Zotero with Firefox and that is working perfectly. So the issue with with Chrome and/or Standalone?

  • I should also add that I've tried it outside of Oxford now, not on a VPN, nor logged in, and I'm getting the same problem.

  • Sorry, I don't think that link works. I typed in 'Witchcraft and Whigs' in the search bar of SOLO at the following URL: http://solo.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/primo_library/libweb/action/search.do?vid=OXVU1&fromLogin=true&reset_config=true

    in Oxford University / Bodleian / Solo Comment by loorung November 11, 2011
  • Yes, sorry. I wasn't too concerned about getting it debugged or fixed as I much prefer standalone, which I'm using exclusively. It was more a recommendation to try standalone if having problems with Zotero/Firefox. It's nothing major, jus…
    in slowness -- Zotero use making FF hang Comment by loorung November 11, 2011
  • Just a comment: I've had the same problem as theoria since upgrading Firefox to version 7 (and now 8). Zotero hangs, I get a beach ball, it becomes slow. My library isn't huge and I have the latest, greatest iMac, so hardware isn't an issue. I …
    in slowness -- Zotero use making FF hang Comment by loorung November 11, 2011
  • Solved: Thanks for the hint. I've just downloaded then drag and dropped a 2008 PDF from the same journal on Project Muse. Zotero has retrieved the metadata perfectly. So it looks like the original article is just too new for Google Scholar. …

  • This is the link to the article. N.B. It's not just this article I find the same problem with other Project Muse articles: http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/journal_of_world_history/summary/v022/22.3.stewart.html Note: If I click on the site tr…

  • I've reset translators and styles. You're right: I must have been selecting styles without a bibliography. With those styles (and with the dev styles) I get the error. Otherwise the the other styles (e.g. MLA) aren't generating the error. Than…
    in 2.1 b6 Generate Bibliography Error Comment by loorung February 12, 2011
  • I've worked through a few styles MLA, Harvard, various Chicago, plus two dev styles: History Journal and Oxford German. Seems to happen with all styles (no problem with Z 2.0). All the book and journal items I've tried it with so far report the same…
