I don't believe there are any tests that you can run other than just installing and testing out some things. Generally Zotero (being a cross-platform app) isn't the most economical with system resources. E.g., I wouldn't want to run the types of thi…

Do you have ZotFile installed? It can automatically move and link files (and linked files don't sync).
-
Your linked files where never available in the web library. Only files synced through Zotero File Storage ever have been. I can't tell you what you saw/remember seeing (could have been a file that you did sync through Zotero, say). You can see what…
-
But obviously flattened files as a drag if you're actually collaborating. I just don't think there's a good option for collaboration (i.e., frequent exchange of documents) between Word and LibreOffice. There's Google Docs as an alternative, there's …

It requires a different style, e.g. https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:apa-no-ampersand
-
Could you give an example what got lost? Your title says "formatting" the question "capitalization" -- neither should get lost, but I'm a bit confused what actually happened.
-
Oh, Zotero doesn't support title casing in any other language than English. We looked at French title casing, I believe, and felt it was sufficiently unusual to disregard. (Edit: and in case that's not clear: Chicago Manual appears to discourage usi…

Not a general issue in Libre Office -- looks like you may have "Bookmarks" selected in the Document Preferences? As indicated there, those don't work in footnotes. That's a LO limitation, nothing Zotero can do about that.
-
It is, yes. (The linked post explicitly mentions the distinction between WebDAV and Zotero File Storage wherever its relevant; everything else applies to both)
-
https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/preventing_title_casing_for_non-english_titles is relevant. While it's possible to use the language field otherwise, this is its primary use in Zotero

What types of dictionaries and encyclopedias are you citing? I don't think incollection would work well for Webster or Wikipedia. Otoh, academic dictionaries/encyclopedias with names authors for each entry are probably better stored as book section
-
That sounds like it's working as expected? https://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_usage
-
Do NOT use the selected option. The Reset file Sync History option below it is worth a try in your situation. See https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/files_not_syncing for the full troubleshooting
-
You'd need to say more. Generally Zotero supports adding citations in footnotes. When exactly are you getting that error message and what does it say exactly (don't translate)?
-
Again, see the request above: If it passes, can you provide a Debug ID (different from a Report ID) for an import that fails? (the instructions for creating Debug IDs are linked). You can post the file anywhere you want for download or if absolute…
-
Web of Science doesn't host PDFs, though, do they? I wouldn't expect PDF saving to work?
-
Yes and yes. (To be a bit technical: I think you will see that custom style next time you open the CSL editor website, but it'll be loaded from your local browser cache, not the web. The CSL Editor is a static site, e.g. it doesn't even have a serve…
-
It's not always that easy, but I think in this case it might work exactly like that, yes. You'll see in the preview (because other things will look wrong) if it doesn't. You'll want to change the title of the style (the editor will the prompt you to…

These are duplicates -- either in your library or in the document inserted from a different library or from duplicates in your library that you've since deleted.
-
That said, we do have an alphabetical Vancouver style for the rare occasions where it is needed: https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:vancouver-alphabetical
-
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bwiernik/zotero-tools/master/apa-note.csl but no ibid there (you'd rarely see this in author-year styles in notes because you're basically saving one word)
-
No, the style doesn't sort the in-text citations at all, currently (you're looking at the sort section for the bibliography). Are the author guidelines explicit that it should do so? If so, we can update the style.
-
1. Bibliography for the whole library: Click on "My Library", select all (ctrl+a), then right-click --> Create bibliography 2. Style without author substitute -- only a very few styles do this, if you want Chicago without it, see https://www.zote…
-
I don't believe there's a way to do this, no: certainly not in the specs, but I'm also not aware of any workaround
-
It'll work in every style _but_ IEEE, because IEEE puts every item in its separate brackets.
-
This is Zotero's cite tab. The request is to install Zotero's LibreOffice extension directly through the LibreOffice add-on manager using the .Oxt file as described in the troubleshooting
-
Just use the citation suffix instead of the locator (i.e. page etc.) field
-
You can provide the DOI and we can see if we can improve import, but yes, you should change the item type to report and add missing info manually
-
Definitiv, ja, Formatvorlagen können alles mögliche machen und kaputtmachen.
