If you get the full first name, that's almost certainly incorrectly entered data. It should be entered as "Vogel, Joshua P." in two separate fields. If you see "Joshua P. Vogel" in Zotero's right-hand pane, that's the problem.
-
FWIW, if you have good versioned back-ups, you might be able to find an old version of the file in your pre-April 18th back-up.
-
How should this look, could you provide an example? Dates are never at the end in APA (other then retrieved dates when they're used), so this is a bit unusual.
-
I'd second the recommendation for the API. For local export, the BBT add-on (https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex ) also comes with several additional JSON export formats, some of which include full data including tags.
-
I don't see how APA style would ever appear without a comma before the date, though. Could you give some examples of incorrect citations and also, could you say how exactly you're creating them (e.g., using the Word add-on, using quick copy, in note…
-
Those are pencil draws. They're not associated with text
-
So you're saying if you start a new document and insert just the Prather et al citation, it lists all authors? I don't really see how that could possibly be happening. What happens if you switch to a different style like American Psychological Assoc…

we don't know what's in the macros. Post the whole style to pastebin.com or a comparable site where we don't have to download it to look at the code.
-
Are you saying the style is wrong or that you need this for a different journal (if so which?). Generally, style editing is described here: https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/citation_styles/style_editing_step-by-step but it's not completely trivia…
-
Right, the unlinking only applies if you need separate bibliographies. Otherwise you just paste them into a single document and keep citations live. You would typically do this as late as possible, as Zotero does slow down in large documents
-
Certainly not easily, no. You could definitely do this with the server API. Might be possible locally via the debug bridge connection made available through the BBT add-on, but I'm not sure
-
Other than using Chrome or Firefox? I don't think so or it'd be implemented.
-
Zotero needs either a DOI or a URL to find the PDF, so if that's not in the reference, it won't be in the RIS and this won't work. That said, you could try if you can get the DOI via the DOI manager add-on https://github.com/bwiernik/zotero-shortdoi
-
That is just IEEE style. [1-3] is no longer correct
-
I think the question is whether non-webpage documents should have URLs -- I actually don't see any indication in the author guidelines that they should (which is why they don't in Elsevier Vancouver).
-
I appreciate that you're impatient for this to get merged and we'll do our best (I try to merge updates fairly quickly) but posting this to every place you can think of is neither kind nor helpful.
-
I'm a bit confused -- do you want to add them to the lab? because that's certainly possible with an existing account.
-
This is a pretty close match: https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:ecological-entomology only different I noted is the location of the page numbers for chapters -- we can likely fix this globally. Note that the journal has free format submissions, so…
-
If you just cut & paste in a document, Zotero indeed doesn't do anything, so there's not automatic updating. Any Zotero action after that -- Refresh, add/insert citation, or add/edit bibliography -- would trigger an update of the document. With …
-
Definitely don't use "Type" in Extra: that will set the CSL item type to whatever you're writing and cause citations to break. I'm not convinced we need this as citation metadata: as far as I know, it's not covered in any other metadata schema (inc…
-
Not possible with CSL as described, no, but you could have two documents with different CSL styles, one of them adding an "e" before citations to create the e1, e2 etc. options.
-
No, the option determines whether the URL is printed for articles with page numbers. It does not affect anything else.
-
What format are you using for export to Covidence and have you looked at the export in a text editor? That would tell you what Zotero exports. I'm not aware of any export format that would treat abstracts inconsistently, so something about this does…
-
Sorry, there appears to be something missing from your post and I can't make out what you actually want to do. FWIW, you almost certainly would have saved yourself time by using the Zotero browser add-on rather than downloading metadata files.
-
The desktop site has "participated" and "Your Discussions" on the right
-
That's not really Zotero related, right? In general, I think version control will work just fine with simultaneous online/local-sync edits, though you might want to test for an important project to be extra sure.
-
@dstillman -- could you take a look please?
-
We'd really want the debug ID, not just the specific output you think is relevant. I'd try resetting your translators (Advanced tab of the preferences), though hard to say more without the full context of the errors.
-
We'd need specific identifiers that aren't working as well as a debug ID for a failed attempt: https://www.zotero.org/support/debug_output.
