Probably not for a while -- no firm date, but it'd be surprised if it happened in the next couple of months.
-
Could you say more about what exactly you did with this? I have accepted an update of certain references in Zotero, thinking that it was the right thing to do. It's not a Zotero functionality I recognize. Generally speaking, most likely you'll hav…

Add the institution as a single field author (i.e. click on the white rectangle next to the author field, then paste/write "Scottish Government")
-
That's your security software, you'd have to troubleshoot that (or, as dstillman says, either use the beta or wait for its stable release)
-
Shift+drag should work for moving items -- try that again. If that doesn't work, which OS, which Zotero version? Note that you're not actually creating a copy otherwise. Zotero's collections don't behave like folders: https://www.zotero.org/suppor…
-
No -- you can copy authors with Zutilo, though, and paste them onto an existing (merged) item.
-
Correct, yes
-
I assume you mean group? You can try emailing support@zotero.org with details demonstrating the group is part of your organization and they might be able to help. There has been at least one conflict about this in the past, so they might be reluctan…

OSCOLA (like most anglo-legal styles) only cites the first page of articles, not the whole page range. I'm seeing that for OSCOLA -- if you aren't, do you have an example?
-
No, storage is only for syncing attachments. You can sync any number of references for free and you can store any number of item with attachments *locally* for free. (There's a technical limit at some point -- depending on your computer, that's like…
-
This is all based on the size of the attachments, principally PDFs, so really, really depends on what you're saving. I'd guess that 1MB per PDF is a reasonable average for academic work -- that'd give you 250-300 articles -- but I've also seen anyth…
-
In line with the OSCOLA guide, Zotero only adds short titles to citations where they're needed for disambiguation, i.e. you likely have at least two works by Crenshaw cited.
-
Zotero 7 includes a native silicone build. You can either switch to the beta (see thread pinned at the top) or wait to the first stable release, which will likely still be a bit out. FWIW, Zotero 7 does work very stably for me, but currently most ad…

There's nothing that'll work out of the box, but you can set the display to XML or KoreaMed, which are variants of PubMedXML and NBIB, respectively and then download the whole selected set (which is up to 500 items) in that format . The KoreaMED is …
-
You'd use a style like Chicago Manual (full note) to automate endnotes and bibliography. The recommended reading you'd just copy over from Zotero using "Create Bibliography" --> Clipboard, e.g. from a collection to which you've added those recomm…

BBT does not ever delete items from the library. There is no functionality in BBT that would lead to item deletion. Sorry -- these were intended as entirely separate points: 1) Zotero doesn't just delete items 2) BBT has documentation about refresh…
-
Yeah, I think we left this out because the guidelines kind of say "do whatever you want". I guess we can sort as you suggest in your PR?
-
In what format was it exported? Typically there aren't many steps: 1. Click on File -- Import 2. Select the exported file 3. Click OK to confirm 4. Wait
-
as in here on the forums -- I'd have to search for them same as you
-
Zotero doesn't just delete references -- check the trash or sort by date added to find them. (on pin/repin, I think BBT may have documentation on details of this)
-
If you're using BetterBibTeX (which gives you visible citekeys and citekey preferences), you need to pin your citekeys (they'll show up in Extra) so that they're getting picked up by the Zotero API (which Overleaf uses) on export. Alternatively, yo…

Das liegt daran dass das S. (oder um genau zu sein das p./pp., der Stil ist ja ursprünglich Englisch) für Seitenzahlen im Chicago Manual implizit ist. Siehe die ersten paar Beispiele hier https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide/cita…

1.) Click on "Manage Library" next to the group here: https://www.zotero.org/groups/ Then set the the group to either public closed or private and makes sure File editing is not set to "No group storage". 2.) I'm afraid so, yes.
-
You'll need to enable file storage for the group. Note that public open groups don't allow file sharing.
-
E.g., if I put the "3-Zotero" folder into one called "Documents" and then change the Zotfile custom location to D:\Dropbox\Documents\3-Zotero -- will that preserve my earlier links created by Zotfile? Not by itself, no. What you'd want to do is to c…
-
There's no way to prevent that, sorry.
-
LibreOffice lets you determine the position of Footnotes, including (somewhat ironically) placing them at the end of the document. That's under Footnotes/Endnotes Settings, which for me is in the Tools menu. In any case, Zotero doesn't have anythi…
-
Sorting alphabetically by title and assigning the a, b suffix in order is correct APA style, you shouldn't change it. (It also makes much more sense systematically to have coherent sorting in the bibliography rather than introduce sorting by oder of…
-
Other import from clipboard (e.g. RIS, BibTeX) is working? How are you selecting? I'd recommend ctrl+a --> ctrl+c to make sure you're not missing anything -- XML breaks immediately if even one character at the beginning or end are left out. The e…

Install 6 beta, use Word integration, trigger and accept the prompt, update to Z7
