That's not possible, I'm afraid
-
That's not Zotero functionality -- you'd have to figure out where the ability to set Zotero as a citation manager in Scrivener comes from (I didn't think this was Scrivener either) and report/ask for help there.
-
Continuous automatic file rename changes what the functionality needs to do. And you can set the middle panel to show the filename instead of the attachment title in the preferences
-
Note, though, that that procedure doesn't distinguish between different groups as well as between different groups and my library. There is no easy way, currently, to locally delete the files just from a specific group/library. It could be scripted…
-
No, there's no way to prevent importing them, but they also have virtually no cost. Either you use a citation style that doesn't use abbreviations at all, or you use a citation style where Zotero automates the abbreviations from the journal title --…

https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/129975/style-translate-dont-work#latest it's respecting the language, it's just disagreeing with you about the proper use of et al vs. "i in." (the style doesn't use & and should use i for and in Polish, so n…

(weird though -- Zotero doesn't grab anything for author at all, which would be preferable to the garbled mess from Zbib)
-
text. title is functionality of the Better BibTeX plugin. I think that plugin also has an option not to escape curly brackets in titles, but I'd advise against that approach -- it really locks you into LaTeX whereas the beauty of Zotero is that it c…

That's an elicit feature -- much more likely they will be able to help you
-
Yeah, there's no perfect solution here but since more chapters have DOIs than not, for the item creation I think the current behavior in 8.03, which is that Create Book Section removes the DOI but Create Duplicate keeps it (thus leaving a possible w…
-
No, this is in the style itself.
-
Isn't it pretty rare for edited books to have DOIs if their chapters don't? I don't think I have seen that
-
That file is for all styles but you can override it in any individual style. See the example at the top of cite them right ed. eds edited and translated by edn. You'll want to create, next t…

Or some other option mentioned, yes. I don't think the key icon is likely the way to go here.
-
Some plugins (it was Beaver.ai for me) massively delay proper shutdown of Zotero. I'd honestly just wait for 10mins and that might do it.
-
(et al is Latin, not English, and used widely across languages, including in many Polish styles)

en-dashes are almost always typographically correct for ranges (pages, years, other numbers). For number of volumes, I don't know how they're supposed to look for De Buck. The relevant code for the bibliography is in the volume macro: …
-
This definitely works, including in the current De Buck style. You need to enter the data exactly as in my post in the grey box: it needs to be preceded by "Issued:" and the start and end date separated with a /
-
I'd guess the issue is how you enter the date in Zotero. The Zotero date field can't handle date ranges. It'd need to be entered as Issued: 1980/1982 in the Extra field.
-
(Citation styles _can_ add this field, to be clear, and some do, but it's not a common requirement and this style doesn't seem to require it as per mjthoraval)
-
Even more specifically, could you walk us through exactly how you're adding that item to Zotero (from the browser, using metadata import, using add by identifier?)
-
Absolutely don't press purge storage. If your storage is at 300.5MB it just means it's full -- your library could have been multiple times that times -- files above 300MB simply wouldn't have synced, but importantly, metadata (i.e. the actual item …
-
Is the right account though, i.e. the one your posting with (it's 12 years old so seems likely)? Because if you can access your settings here, you can just add a new email address and make it primary. If this isn't the right account and you can't l…
-
Yes, the option is only a display setting for an individual desktop application. It doesn't affect display on the web, in the mobile apps, or even on other, synced desktop apps.
-
The settings for file renaming? No. The files themselves with customized filenames, yes Sorry about that. See below

They should be very, very embarrassed -- this has been in the APA manual since at least 2009. If you do need to comply with incorrect APA style, this should work: https://github.com/bwiernik/zotero-tools/blob/master/apa-no-disambiguation.csl Click…
-
You're just incorrect about APA rules and Zotero implements them correctly: APA disambiguates all first authors with the same last name. See the short version here: https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/citations/basic-principles/citing…

If you want to make a case for the importance of humans in software dev, being a jerk to humans who have supported software for decades because they disagree with you about AI is an odd move...

Yeah, but with plugins we're now in a place where you can do maintenance with Claude Code entirely, so you don't actually rely on the maintainer that much anymore
