There's a lot going on in this thread -- could you specify what, exactly, your problem is and what you have checked and what you have done to try to fix it?
-
The table issue has been an occasional recurrence and I don't believe there's much Zotero can do about that -- it's a weird thing that Word does when you add multiple fields (the grey-shaded element that Zotero uses to insert/store citations) into a…
-
Sorry, that question was for Rick/K. For your case, if you put something like ", says a lot more stuff to explain the citation." into the suffix field, you'll get Teugels, Title, says a lot more stuff to explain the citation. i.e. the period at th…
-
I don't think ZotFile is actively developed, so this is unlikely to happen, honestly. FWIW, since ZotFile is mainly used for PDFs of academic works where the exact date of publication is rarely cited (and can actually change in confusing ways), I …
-
(though there are probably enough people using ZotFile around here that you might get an answer if you say a bit more what you're trying. The first thing to check would be a) your ZotFile preferences and b) that manual renaming using Zotfile -- i.e.…

Right, but why do you want to free this up? Files are the only thing that takes up space, so if you've turned off syncing it doesn't really matter?
-
The suggestion to disable other extensions is a troubleshooting step. You'd then start re-enabling them one-by-one to see which one actually interferes with Zotero/Google Docs (One of the first places I'd look is anything writing-related like Gramma…
-
Why exactly do you want to do this? You can use purge storage, which you can find clicking on the upgrade storage button above, but it's useful only for a fairly limited number of situations. Most of the time, disabling file sync is all you need
-
There's no separate download. It's part of the standard Chrome connector, you just have to enable it in the connector or preferences as described
-
If you delete the attachments in the web library that will delete them locally. Is that what you actually want?
-
Zotero citations don't jump to the bibliography when you ctrl+click. Did you do anything in the doc to make that happen?
-
You're aware that you can import via Save to Zotero icon from EBSCO? But obviously RIS should work. Could we get a debug ID from Zotero (https://www.zotero.org/support/debug_output ) for a failed import as well as the first ~30 lines of the RIS fil…
-
Sorry, I'm not quite sure what you're asking -- you're getting a period at the end of a Chicago style note because Chicago says to put a period at the end of the note. If you want to add specific page numbers to a citation see https://www.zotero.or…
-
the information is actually extracted by Zotero already (using the pdfinfo tool) and saved in the same folder as the PDF (as .zotero-ft-info) so you can get to it with two clicks (show file, then open that file -- you can set up TextEdit or so to vi…
-
If I try to create a bibliography in a document set to CQHCE it says that it cannot because the style does not do bibliographies. But when I change the setting from Vancouver to CQHCE a bibliography is already present, so it freaks. You're right, t…
-
Either in Zotero or in Word, yes. This, though, when switching from a numeric style: So I had my manuscript set to Vancouver. I added the above and simply switched to the new style in document preferences. But what it then did was turn all the endn…
-
@damnation -- you're using citation-number for the call back, that should be first-reference-note-number
-
You can just switch footnotes to endnotes in Word, Zotero just defaults to Footnotes
-
Very much possible, but sites change their policies/behavior and if JSTOR wants to prevent cloud services from accessing their metadata, they can do that pretty effectively and, as dstillman says, not much Zotero can do about that. That's why you ha…
-
In the desktop app using the connector? URLs won't work, ever, in the add by identifier window in the desktop.
-
Please do always mention when you talk about the web library: Zotero without qualifiers is assumed to be the desktop app, where URLs have never worked as identifiers and where import of JSTOR articles via browser connector continues to work fine. I'…
-
How are you inserting the note? The idea would be that you use the word processor's insert footnote button when you're not inserting a Zotero citation. If you need a references without Zotero in a Zotero-created footnote there are two options: 1. A…
-
What is this for? It's a modification of the citation style -- I don't think this is done in the standard Elsevier styles, but we can look at this for a specific journal. (The basic code to change this is but it's in a fairly finicky part of citati…
-
Could you also find a recent open access article of the journal?
-
I tested this, and as expected, a refresh of the document deletes the manually added item from the footnotes. Not sure how exactly you tested, but generally this just works -- Zotero doesn't touch footnotes it doesn't create itself and it's perfect…
-
For the read/to read tag, I use and would suggest colored tags, instead: https://www.zotero.org/support/collections_and_tags#colored_tags FWIW, the added information in Extra is hopefully going to be mostly transitional as Zotero updates its data m…
-
@aborel -- this actually wouldn't be a bad site to start with when exploring coding translators. The RIS is easily accesible simply by adjusting the URL: https://www.e-periodica.ch/ris?pid=ant-001:2017:56::190 as is the PDF https://www.e-periodica.…

@damnation does most of these -- typically takes 2-6 weeks, not sure about his backlog currently.
-
1. Nothing relevant in the TEI export has changed for years. My best guess is you're remembering this incorrectly - Zotero export has always produced one file for a single export operation. More generally, export does change, but typically for exte…

Yes, you definitely shouldn't rely on syncing alone for important data like your Zotero library. The recommendation for Zotero is really no different than for any other important data, i.e. to ensure that your Zotero data folder is included in your …
