This is correct for the bibliography of an unsigned newspaper article (see CMoS 14.97), though she should remove the location from the publication title field.
-
Very odd. What happens when you use right-click --> Create Bibliography from Zotero (select APA/Bibliography/Clipboard) and paste into Word? You'll get italics then? How about in Google Docs with the Zotero plugin? Are you using any type of te…
-
Does this happen in a new document with just the Pedersen & Dobbin reference inserted? (I assume you mean Mac OS, not iOS, which doesn't have a Zotero Word plugin)
-
It's compatible, I'm using it. Zotero's plugin page is massively out of date
-
You can't merge (or generally move between) libraries while keeping existing links to Zotero references in documents. (It'd be nice if that were possible and I think it may well be in the future, but currently it's not). Beyond that, dragging colle…

Follow the full troubleshooting, including reporting all information requested in the last step
-
That should just work. What exactly are you trying and what happens?
-
That's just how the openURL landing page is set up in primo. Nothing to do with Zotero
-
which operating system?
-
That seems strictly worse than an attached web link though, no?
-
No risk of corruption in the specific sense of the word, but the URL field is used for citations, so this will mess with citations. They should instead use "Add Attachment" --> "Web Link" -- though note that as an important disadvantage of this (…

Works for me in the beta. Try in troubleshooting mode (under "Help") if that still doesn't work, we'd want debug output for pressing ctrl+shift+c on an item https://www.zotero.org/support/debug_output If it does work in troubleshooting mode, it's o…

No. You can't choose which files to sync. It's all or nothing for each library
-
What format do you have set in export?
-
Yeah, the page is a mess; at this point I'd basically ignore it -- Zotero devs have mentioned they're planning something better. Currently the best place to look is the Zotero Plugin Market maintained by a Chinese plugin developer: github.com/syt2/…
-
In addition to what tim820 says, you can (and probably should) disable file syncing in the Zotero preferences so that you don't see the error message anymore.
-
Yeah, I thought this was likely it. Chicago is silent on this exact case, but we think what we implement is the appropriate disambiguation rule for the Manual. APA actually specifies that authors with the same last name and initial should _not_ be d…
-
For that specific scenario -- it would be impossible. That said, we've now seen a couple of pretty decent AI generated CSL style updates, so you could try that if it's of interest (I don't what tools/toolchain works, though). Since you can't really …
-
Can you confirm that this happens in a new document with just those two citations (i.e. Ansell et al. 2020 and Emerson et. al. 2021)? Can you also confirm that it _doesn't_ happen if you just cite Ansell et al?
-
FWIW you can start Zotero in troubleshooting mode using cmd+click and then disable the BBT
-
(If you ever want to use the .js file, you'd want to place it in the translator folder in the Zotero data directory and restart Zotero, but it's really a much worse option here)
-
Right on file sync but why is that a problem? And no, purge storage specifically empties online storage, not local.files
-
They can just disable file sync in the prefs. If they really want to, they can then also use purge storage, but no real reason to
-
This isn't helpful, sorry. Please take the time two write three or four sentences about what you're trying to do _and why_ (yes, motivation matters for the right solution) and I'm happy to talk you through the options.
-
Right, but what exactly are you trying to achieve -- e.g. with a standard set up they'll just resync again. You can use "Purge Storage" on https://www.zotero.org/settings/storage but you absolutely want to understand exactly what you're doing befor…
-
Can you say what you are trying to do and why? Likely possible, but the answer will depend on the exact details
-
You need to read that more slowly. The key part is making sure either your database is synced via the Zotero servers or to manually carry over the zotero.sqlite containing the actual database. The files are just... files; they don't appear in Zotero…
-
See the note about manually transferring your database -- it seems like you either didn't do this or did it incorrectly. Definitely don't import PDFs from your storage folder like you've been doing.
-
Yeah, you're indeed just missing it: If you have a quick copy citation style set up (which it sounds like you do if drag & drop works in the main interface) you can get a citation or bibliography either from the Edit menu or using the keyboard s…
-
Yup -- I was not making a claim about Zotero's behavior. Tim was saying that he always places items in both collection and subcollection, I was saying I only place them in the subcollection (and then use the view option as iagogv specifies, which I …
