Which Zotero version? Can you reproduce this in troubleshooting mode (which disables all plugins? And can you drag individual items to the group? If this also happens in troubleshooting mode, can you provide a debug ID that captures an attempt to d…

Captions have never supported World fields, sorry, you'll have to work around this.
-
drag & drop should work (moving between groups via the move to/copy to right-click menus doesn't currently work between libraries, only within a library). What exactly happens when you try drag&drop? And can you create a sample new item in …
-
yup, those four would have been what I'd point to. There's no dedicated documentation I'm aware of and I don't think the local API is 100% feature complete/equivalent, but mostly there.
-
1. The full web API is available via local endpoint: http://127.0.0.1:23119/api/
-
Do they have the BBT plugin installed? A prior version of that plugin could cause this, I believe (potentially also other plugins).
-
They're not jumbled, they're alphabetical by title as per Chicago 18th ed., 13.70. That's correct sorting -- you'd have to modify the style to change this (Chicago author-date styles are, of course, sorted by date for the same author).
-
There is no standard database of ISBNs as there is for (almost all) DOIs. Zotero does lookup in a range of library catalogs (I'd have to check the full list, but it includes the Library of Congress, the German K10+ catalog, the Bibliotheque de Franc…
-
(You can select/unselect -- and then edit -- individual items in Duplicates using ctrl+click). Edit: also, the Zoplicate plugin allows you to mark items as not duplicates for now
-
Are you not able to right-click/ctrl-click on the Save to Zotero icon in Safari (I never know what features don't work in the Safari extension though I thought this was available)? That'd be the standard way to tell Zotero how to save from a page if…
-
Right, that's not "editors" but "edited by" abbreviated so doesn't take a plural form and is correct Chicago Manual, see e.g. the chapter example on https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide/citation-guide-1.html 1. Kathleen Doyle,…
-
Can you give an example? I'm not seeing this but may depend on the exact data of an item.
-
I don't think you can prevent this, no -- the citation tool is designed to omit duplicate punctuation. (Herv. im Orginal would work, of course; it's the period at the end)
-
How exactly are you adding this information and which citation style? I'm not seeing that behavior. Using the page and suffix field as recommended, I get (Koenecke et al. 2024, 15- emphasis added; Trice 1987)
-
Exactly, yes, you should use a single synced account or a group to collaborate
-
I don't believe you can. You'd have to reinsert any citations for which you want to modify metadata
-
Same thing -- name-part was never defined in the Chicago styles since they don't modify name parts, you had to add it as shown above.
-
There's lots of plugins doing this already -- you can use the forums to search. Given widely diverging views on AI among academics (as well as the many ways this could potentially be implemented), that seems like the better way to go here
-
Very much agree, yes, this would be helpful & low-hanging fruit (and should just resolve to the respective catalog, of course)
-
What do you mean by "my main Zotero folder is stored in Google Drive"? Generally, don't do that. If Zotero syncs to your Mac, that presumably means sync is working (you can also check the Web Library here on the site).
-
How else would you remember the numbers? I think everything else would be quite confusing (I also don't think anyone has complained about this before and numbered tags are >10 years old)
-
I'm not seeing this with regular tags. What you're seeing is that colored tags are sorted by their order (recall that they are assigned numbers for tagging by keyboard, so in your example, [D] has a lower number than [B]. Not-colored tags are placed…
-
That ISBN (which I believe is for one of the ebook editions), shows up in very few library catalogs, so Zotero doesn't find it. 9781264451128, the principal ISBN, works
-
I don't know about the plans for the annotations in the sidebar, but you're aware you can also see them under the attachment in the middle panel, by unfolding them using the little triangle/arrow on the side of the attachement (from where the click …
-
It's certainly possible that Zotero made breaking changes under the hood, but Zotero never supported any sort of integration with word processors other than the ones officially supported (i.e. LO, Word, GDocs), so whatever worked before was either a…
-
It's a better process in that you don't also have to factor in potential data loss/changes due to export import, but no, using a group won't solve your main problem: items in documents will still unlink when they are moved to the group (or to be mor…
-
All old versions of Zotero are available via the same link structure, so e.g. https://www.zotero.org/download/client/dl?channel=release&platform=win32&version=6.0.36 for the last version of Zotero 6 on W32-bit, but rolling back is absolutely…
-
There's a whole selection of Vancouver styles: https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=vancouver
-
No, that's for a planned, unreleased CSL version. The current CSL specs are here: https://docs.citationstyles.org/en/stable/specification.html (and don't have this)
-
Zotero has moved like this from the beginning, this never changed, no. You can move items between collections (i.e. remove the item from the origin collection) using modifier keys (i.e., shift+drag on W/Linux, cmd+drag on Mac). That's much less intr…
