Yeah, the page is a mess; at this point I'd basically ignore it -- Zotero devs have mentioned they're planning something better. Currently the best place to look is the Zotero Plugin Market maintained by a Chinese plugin developer: github.com/syt2/…
-
In addition to what tim820 says, you can (and probably should) disable file syncing in the Zotero preferences so that you don't see the error message anymore.
-
Yeah, I thought this was likely it. Chicago is silent on this exact case, but we think what we implement is the appropriate disambiguation rule for the Manual. APA actually specifies that authors with the same last name and initial should _not_ be d…
-
For that specific scenario -- it would be impossible. That said, we've now seen a couple of pretty decent AI generated CSL style updates, so you could try that if it's of interest (I don't what tools/toolchain works, though). Since you can't really …
-
Can you confirm that this happens in a new document with just those two citations (i.e. Ansell et al. 2020 and Emerson et. al. 2021)? Can you also confirm that it _doesn't_ happen if you just cite Ansell et al?
-
FWIW you can start Zotero in troubleshooting mode using cmd+click and then disable the BBT
-
(If you ever want to use the .js file, you'd want to place it in the translator folder in the Zotero data directory and restart Zotero, but it's really a much worse option here)
-
Right on file sync but why is that a problem? And no, purge storage specifically empties online storage, not local.files
-
They can just disable file sync in the prefs. If they really want to, they can then also use purge storage, but no real reason to
-
This isn't helpful, sorry. Please take the time two write three or four sentences about what you're trying to do _and why_ (yes, motivation matters for the right solution) and I'm happy to talk you through the options.
-
Right, but what exactly are you trying to achieve -- e.g. with a standard set up they'll just resync again. You can use "Purge Storage" on https://www.zotero.org/settings/storage but you absolutely want to understand exactly what you're doing befor…
-
Can you say what you are trying to do and why? Likely possible, but the answer will depend on the exact details
-
You need to read that more slowly. The key part is making sure either your database is synced via the Zotero servers or to manually carry over the zotero.sqlite containing the actual database. The files are just... files; they don't appear in Zotero…
-
See the note about manually transferring your database -- it seems like you either didn't do this or did it incorrectly. Definitely don't import PDFs from your storage folder like you've been doing.
-
Yeah, you're indeed just missing it: If you have a quick copy citation style set up (which it sounds like you do if drag & drop works in the main interface) you can get a citation or bibliography either from the Edit menu or using the keyboard s…
-
Yup -- I was not making a claim about Zotero's behavior. Tim was saying that he always places items in both collection and subcollection, I was saying I only place them in the subcollection (and then use the view option as iagogv specifies, which I …
-
Can you specify exactly what you're doing? Replace online library --> Reset should definitely work.
-
You are installing Zutilo incorrectly. Download the xpi file using save link as, then install via Zotero --> Tools
-
Previous versions of Zotero didn't have a Citation Key field. The BBT plugin placed a pseudo field at the top of the item pane. My understanding is that the dev is planning on having the plugin move the current Citation Key field, but hasn't success…
-
You're missing a comma after custom2: { issueDate: ["patent"] (elements of an object or a array are always comma-delimited. Zotero's translator editor -- Tools --> Developer -- has a linting function that catches & warns about issues like th…
-
Use the Zutilo plugin. I think actions and tags works, too, but haven't tested that
-
a) you should just put an error report ID here, not link to the output on some cloud service b) We'd need to see the actual RIS here -- good chance it's simply broken RIS, Ovid has terrible metadata.
-
He means that if you have a library structure Library ---Domain ------Subdomain A ------Subdomain B Every item in the subdomain collection is also placed in domain. FWIW, I typically do the opposite and try to avoid duplication in a tree. I also us…
-
I don't believe we have anything mapping to Extra in the current export, but if you look at the .js file, it's pretty easy to add. All fields for all items are here: https://pobrien333.github.io/zot2csl/ I believe the only fields shared across all…
-
Yeah, I don't know what's going on here -- I don't see where Zotero would get the wrong (or the right, for that matter) PDF information from. Zotero devs would have to say. 1) would have been the case, if, say, there's a citation_pdf_url link on y…
-
you'll need to think about which Zotero fields you want to use first. There aren't that many "structured" fields you have available across all item types and you can't add custom fields.
-
In the cite them right style, right next to the en-GB locale
-
And it's already frozen when you take that screenshot? That looks pretty normal I think
-
I agree that an example would help, but Zotero basically tries two things for a DOI/URL to get the PDF: 1. It looks if you have access to it directly by following the DOI/URL (either because that site is OA or because you have access via IP where yo…

There is no way you can use Zotero on iOS without using cloud sync. The app is designed as a syncing companion app to the Desktop app and there's no way to get Zotero data loaded onto it other than using Zotero sync (files can sync via Zotero or Web…
