There's a fair amount of uncertainty about the extent of the vitality in GPL licenses, but I don't see Zotero arguing its license should apply to plugins. I don't see any problem in using these other than the fact that long-term sustainability is mu…
-
Either a plugin or, more likely, the database they're retrieved from does the translation. It's not uncommon for international publishers to supply English titles for better discoverability.
-
The terms are here https://www.zotero.org/support/terms/terms_of_service and don't have any usage restrictions on data sync other than the typical warning not to do anything illegal/destructive. The maximum file size for individual attachments on …
-
The app only downloads files on demand; you actually _can't_ (with reasonable effort) download all your PDFs at once.
-
Zotero doesn't have a different item type for this, though, so that'd be a bit tricky. Displaying icons based on the parsed 'type' field doesn't seem like a great idea.
-
Zotero devs will have to say what they need for troubleshooting screenshots on the same machine. If you create a note with a screenshot now, does it stick around? Second, is it not possible to select a folder of my choice for Zotero attachments, as …
-
Screenshots added on the same machine should certainly be visible. You don't need to sync for any Zotero functionality on a local machine. With your set-up, you're not syncing the Zotero attachment folder -- you're syncing the folder where ZotFile …

Chicago Manual funktioniert auch auf Deutsch sehr gut und ist für historische Text gut geeignet. Ansonsten vielleicht der Stil für Zeitgeschichte? https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:zeitgeschichte Muß/ kann ich eigentlich für jede meiner Eintragung…
-
switch to a different style and back, that should fix this.
-
dstillman quotes the exact passage about this from the docs above.
-
Seeing the same (also on Windows).
-
(just to re-iterate the key point: bulk tagging happens in the tag selector on the bottom left, not the tag section on the right, which is for individual items)
-
I don't think Zotero is the tool you want for this, starting with the fact that it doesn't have much support for viewing and handling .txt files. It's really designed with academic literature, mostly in PDF format, also as epub and html, in mind. E…
-
That works in general and doesn't require any special action on your part. Could you first try clicking the "Refresh" button in the Zotero word processor add-on and if that doesn't help provide the two _bibliography_ entries of those items here (jus…
-
DOIs are not generally included in Citing Medicine -- there is a single example of a journal article with a DOI in the journal chapter (although virtually all examples have DOIs) and that example is in the "Example for Notes" category, i.e. entries …
-
You can check the "Include URL" box in the Styles tab of the Zotero preferences to get the [Internet] part, but I don't think you'd normally want that, either, to be honest.
-
You can save the "Create Bibliography" output to RTF and open in Word. That will have correct margins.
-
Standard Vancouver/NLM style doesn't use italics. Which style requirements are you looking to follow?
-
That's a bit unintuitive (and will likely change in the near-ish) future, but is expected: If a page doesn't include structured metadata but does have citations with DOIs (such as Gelman's blog), Zotero offers to import the items with DOIs. To impo…
-
You're not the first to ask, but not possible, no, and it's not an easy fix/change to allow that, either, I'm afraid.
-
Currently, Extra is the only way to handle this. A better date field (able to handle things like date ranges and uncertain dates) is very much needed, but absent that, the Extra field is the only way to go and the roundtrip issues are going to be as…
-
Ah OK, you can then modify the style to add ibid -- shouldn't be hard based on your previous modifications but feel free to ask for details. No way to un-omit authors in bulk though
-
What an unnecessary waste of time. I'm sorry you have to deal with that. I'm afraid I don't see any way to automate that change. You have to change the sentence structure (as in your first example) and then undo omit author (which you can do using …
-
Yes, that'll happen automatically
-
Yes, absolutely, that's one of the things public groups are for. Note (in case that's relevant) that non members will not have access to attachments shared in the group: you can't use Zotero groups to disseminate PDFs and other files.
-
Mostly. ISBN data comes from libraries, not publishers. And you don't have to be a member of an RA to register a DOI. You can get DOIs for documents by placing them in free repositories like Zenodo or Figshare.
-
Just one where you get an item in Zotero but no snapshot, i.e. the behavior (I think) you originally reported. Also see the other requested info above
-
hmm -- but the result you see on that page -- failure of multiple translators and no item is imported at all -- isn't what you initially report, which was no snapshot attaching. We still want to look at this at specific URLs which clearly exemplif…
-
I don't think there's a way to create a bibliography in Word that will remain synced with changes in Zotero, I'm afraid (not a terribly common request, either, though it comes up occasionally). The only tools that do do this are online tools that sy…

All academic library catalogs, certainly in the US, are public, even when the libraries themselves aren't
