  • Same issue here in Zot5: I cannot get rid of m/d/y and change it to d/m/y. I can change Windows 10 language from EN (US) to EN (UK) but that does not change anything in Zotero. In Office and Total Commander dates are d/m/y. I do not have the View…
  • I still consider this a bug, since my tag-list is exploding with false duplicates in Zotero 5. Is there any action planned to solve this issue? Make it a user setting in preferences to not allow false duplicate tags? Or is there a workaround avai…
  • 1 - still an issue 3 - is fixed by Zutilo
  • mmmh, that actually seems to be perfect. I thought that button was only for importing pdfs. Thank you. Zotero was and is excellent
  • ps. I have Zot 5 and Zot connector running
  • Importing through Export citation usually also provides an abstract and tags. Save to Zotero and then manually import metadata never does. And those are most relevant for searching in my Zotero database Besides those two items, what data quality is …
  • This seems obviously a a problem worth fixing, ScienceDirect is a major publisher. So what's happening with this case?
  • 1 - I can reproduce it with every duplicate.. impossible to view attachment as stated.. 2 - thanks 3 - thanks, I did. under: Keyboard shortcut does not work #71. A reaction: "Confirmed. Some of the Zotero internals must have changed."
  • I'm quite sure they will be treated as different, and also that in Zotero 4/FF that was not the case: having both "fish" and "Fish" was not allowed in the tag list. Whichever of the two was first in the tag database prevailed. That worked excellent!
  • for instance: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1350417717300950?via=ihub http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0043135412001224 The citation export (Export/RIS/Export citation and abstract) does give the box in the lowe…
  • thank you, I 've found that option (right click). But: - several exports of metadata (citations) do not function anymore, which generates obviously a vast amount of workload. I get the message 'importing...' but nothing happens.. Do you have a sugge…
  • Another question: I seem to have lost the option to directly import pdf's from website to Zotero (inc. automatically retrieving metadata).
  • Thank you. I used Firefox 55.0.3, Zotero 4.0.29.22. I upgraded to Zotero 5.
  • Thank you all. The Python works like a charm, great that it reveals the orphans first instead of immediately removing them.
  • I changed firefox from 64 bit to 32 bit, that sorted out this problem
  • Same here: "Could not find a running Word instance", Word2016 x64 on Win10 Home. Funny though that last week or so I had no problems, today I do. As far as I know I changed nothing on this computer. Running firefox as admin is indeed a workaround op…
  • Hello, Same here, with ZoteroFF in Word (2016) gives "[JavaScript Error: "couldn't open library C:\Users\" etc After installing Zotero Stand Alone including the Word plugin, the plugin does not respond if ZotSA is running in the background. Afte…
  • Finally we meet! 1: _only_ colored tags in Dup view because they are numbered shortcuts 2: Ctrl works. Got it. I prefer a Dup-tag, because theres no Dub-view between the ctrl+clicks, but I get the point now. Will work perfect for incidental dubs, b…
  • More questions! Unless I miss something, I can not do all in Dups view I want. Check tags? Edit Authors? Delete useless note? Hit enter to open attachment? Dups view is a handsome Dups generator, but e.g. Procite which is dead for a while now had a …
  • See your last post, there must be a misunderstanding: If I have the tag "Zot" in duplicates, I can color it. Right. But all other items with the tag "Zot" will be colored, not only the duplicates. So basically I still have no clou what your procedur…
  • I hope not ;). All and only duplicates have the tag "___". So in My Lib. I select ___. After sorting the dups stick together. I switch to and fro the dups, maybe copy some tags, other details, pick the best attachment (e.g. with annotations), etc. A…
  • I've read that manual before posting. But to assign a color, there has to be a unique tag for duplicates first, right? That's my problem. Or was: Zutilo did the trick. Now I have duplicates tag: "___" But I do not need steps 1-4, I simply select ___…
  • Thank you Adam, but please ilucidate me on this. I never used colored tags. What do you mean by stating "hit the number key for the tag you want to use" My duplicates do not have a single tag in common but a lot. I can imagine though that it makes …
  • Reading the above I cannot figure out how to easily delete duplicates. I thought: 1 - get them to a temporary collection 2 - sort on name 3 - delete the ones I want to keep (delete from collection that is) 4 - then 'delete collection and items'. I g…
  • Ok. Maybe I'll dive in keyconfig after all. Zutillo does support Modify attachment path, not Modify attachment name (?) I would definitely use custom fields, great.
  • Sorry Dan, you are wrong. Please reread my post. KSC is not the same as shortcut. It does not require 100's of shortcuts, just ALT+.. keystrokes. I would call it a Windows convention. Check Word or something like that. You can reach 100% of Word wit…
  • Thank you for your replies. I did not have expressed myself clearly, using ‘shortcuts’. What I also (wrongly, I know) consider a shortcut is a key-combination under ALT. As in Word: Alt+H+AI is (increasing indent), ALT+S+R+F (adding cross reference)…
  • @Dan. To be honest your answer surprises me. It’s a pity that you are obviously not into shortcuts in general. Every program should be able to be used mouseless, and Zotero is in that sense obviously ignorant. And I consider Zotero as truly terrific…
  • Thanks, although I'm not sure it works for me. The first link does not offer extra shortcuts, but it's helpful, it also shows the Zotero/Zutilo shortcuts (although buried under all other shortcuts). Zultilo is (almost ;) perfect and I use it quite…
