Pretty sure that's the translator error message pictured above. Do you mean that happens after 5 DOIs or after 5 pages (i.e. 50 articles) of DOIs? Either way, we'd still want a URL and also a debug ID from the connector for an attempt that trigger…
-
Could you give an example? Generally, online magazines and newspapers (etc.) should get saved with a snapshot
-
That's what the Zotero connector is for: https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#via_your_web_browser You can save sources to Zotero right while you're looking at them, no need to copy&paste the URL (it also works better than a li…

There's a link right on that page: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/transferring_a_library
-
(URLs are typically in the debug output, but a) there can be multiple URLs in there making it hard to parse what's not working and b) not everyone troubleshooting issues with import has access to the debug logs)
-
You mean this style? https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:journal-of-the-indian-law-institute&dependent=0 See here: https://www.zotero.org/support/styles#reporting_style_errors
-
Yeah, seems to be a general error, also affects the "Create Citation" function in the web library (which relies on the API)
-
Das heißt normalerweise dass entweder die Falsche Datei runtergeladen wird oder irgendwas mit dem Browser cache oder der Verbindung nicht stimmt. Sie klicken auf "Install Firefox Connector" hier? https://www.zotero.org/download/
-
What message exactly are you getting? I don't believe there's a 'conflict' message that Zotero would generate. Track changes should generally work fine (Zotero's Word add-on disables track changes during citation insertion)
-
This is in the site header: Needless to say, that's obviously not a way to represent a date/time stamp and I'm not surprised Zotero stumbles in trying to parse that. They should fix this on the site, I don't think it's worth Zotero trying to guess …
-
sure, but... what's the problem? It's not like people will start browsing through non-existing issues in search of a 'page number'. They just click on the DOI. If they told people to leave out the article number because it (almost always) just dupli…
-
We need a sample URL for any such issues, but I'd expect you're getting rate limited by Sage: trying to download 100s (let alone 1000s) of articles in short order isn't something they like to see. This is for a SR I assume? The best way to get the…

Not automatically -- metadata provided by most journals doesn't distinguish between page numbers and 'article numbers' (e.g., in the site header of the PLOS article you use as an example you find . That's why this particular APA invention is a rath…
-
What's happening is that Zotero (or rather the citation formatting processor it uses) is a bit too aggressive in trying to understand and parse the contents of fields, and understands "p. 258" as the number of pages, and since 258 is more than 1 the…
-
That is the filepath for the profile, not the data directory (note the "Profile" in the path), so that'd be very odd. That's what you get when you look for the data directory from the Zotero preferences?
-
The fact that immediately repeated notes are author only has been part of the default Chicago 'full note' style since the 17th edition. You'd need to provide more details. Generally the 17th edition styles wouldn't have changed in substantive ways e…
-
Disable automatic journal abbreviation in the Zotero Document Settings in Word
-
As I said, it generally italicizes correctly. You'd have to provide examples of when it doesn't
-
You'd have to say more. Styles (including Chicago Manual) generally handle italicization of titles (such as of book titles) automatically and always have.
-
Do you mean to sync your file attachments to WebDAV? Because your library should still be online; purge storage doesn't affect metadata sync.
-
It just didn't have the right style at all before (note the 'and' in the first citation). I'm glad it's fixed now.
-
As noted above, the Chicago 17th edition styles are available from the style repository and the full note version is now called (notes and bibliography). That's just a change in name, not in content.
-
We're not going to add the old style back, I'm afraid, that's just not logistically feasible. Edit: we can provide instructions for getting back old styles for individuals, but won't go back to old styles on the repository. My recollection of worki…
-
hmm -- we can get you the old style back if absolutely need be (you wouldn't benefit from the improvements made otherwise or any other future updates and fixes), but it'd really be better to clean the library: Loc. in Archive is, as the name suggest…
-
In what fields exactly do you have that information? The Call Number field isn't used anywhere in that style (and library location isn't a field in Zotero).
-
Could you provide a couple of examples of items (both how they look in text and their corresponding bibliography entries? The style should reliably sort alphabetically in text (the journal just uses APA style)
-
The basic method is documented here: https://docs.citationstyles.org/en/stable/specification.html#et-al For APA in particular, this is actually a bit involved because its author handling is fairly complex, but you'll capture most in-text citations …
-
Do you still have the old computer? It sounds like that wasn't synced properly (or may have been synced to a different account) and the new computer can't possibly get any items you don't see in the online library. You likely can still cite items …
-
If you are already using WebDAV, you can just use the purge option, nothing else needed
-
Absolutely don't delete any files anywhere. This is one of the few scenarios where 'purge storage ' from the upgrade storage link here on the page is appropriate.
