Thanks -- yeah, it's the COinS metadata on the page. I need to look more closely to say more, but that's definitely what's causing the weird import. It might be possible to write dedicated support for the library catalog/discovery layer; it's an odd…
-
Is this a public catalog and can you link to it? I don't think I've ever seen this and I suspect it's because the site is serving some weird metadata
-
The "Getting Help" info shoudl have linked you to this page: https://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues Please run through this and provide all info requested in the last step
-
Zotero doesn't have a mark as non-duplicate function; if you had that, it was a plugin (Zoplicate, likely) and you'd have to contact the developer
-
As for storage capacity, Zotero is free to use with any amount of data and if you run it locally and storage for syncing is available as unlimited storage, so this isn't a capacity issue. You can argue the tiers are too expensive, but I'm not really…
-
You mean not adding them by identifier but literally doing a search using advanced search or all fields and tags? Did that ever use to work? I'd assume Zotero just searches the ISBN field like a simple string, so anything that's changed, including …
-
If there is a webpage/website about the group, e.g. if this is a group for/of a lab or research group, you put the URL to that lab's homepage there. See e.g. the link on our public group's description here: https://www.zotero.org/groups/487712/qdr_r…

(FWIW, Zotero wouldn't just "renew" your subscription: you're have to check auto renew when you sign up and then ignore the message that tells you it's renewing shortly. They might still be willing to refund this, of course, but this is standard pra…

1. Assuming you have synced (and it sounds like you have) you would lose only access to attached files. All your metadata edits would remain available, sync to other machines, etc. Storage only refers to files (which includes images pasted in notes …
-
Bureau ISBN and similar services don't offer metadata lookup. KB does offer a lookup, but it returns a quirky metadata format (DCX, an extended Dublin core) so would require some work
-
Which Zotero version? Can you reproduce this in troubleshooting mode (which disables all plugins? And can you drag individual items to the group? If this also happens in troubleshooting mode, can you provide a debug ID that captures an attempt to d…
-
Captions have never supported World fields, sorry, you'll have to work around this.
-
drag & drop should work (moving between groups via the move to/copy to right-click menus doesn't currently work between libraries, only within a library). What exactly happens when you try drag&drop? And can you create a sample new item in …
-
yup, those four would have been what I'd point to. There's no dedicated documentation I'm aware of and I don't think the local API is 100% feature complete/equivalent, but mostly there.
-
1. The full web API is available via local endpoint: http://127.0.0.1:23119/api/
-
Do they have the BBT plugin installed? A prior version of that plugin could cause this, I believe (potentially also other plugins).
-
They're not jumbled, they're alphabetical by title as per Chicago 18th ed., 13.70. That's correct sorting -- you'd have to modify the style to change this (Chicago author-date styles are, of course, sorted by date for the same author).
-
There is no standard database of ISBNs as there is for (almost all) DOIs. Zotero does lookup in a range of library catalogs (I'd have to check the full list, but it includes the Library of Congress, the German K10+ catalog, the Bibliotheque de Franc…
-
(You can select/unselect -- and then edit -- individual items in Duplicates using ctrl+click). Edit: also, the Zoplicate plugin allows you to mark items as not duplicates for now
-
Are you not able to right-click/ctrl-click on the Save to Zotero icon in Safari (I never know what features don't work in the Safari extension though I thought this was available)? That'd be the standard way to tell Zotero how to save from a page if…
-
Right, that's not "editors" but "edited by" abbreviated so doesn't take a plural form and is correct Chicago Manual, see e.g. the chapter example on https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide/citation-guide-1.html 1. Kathleen Doyle,…
-
Can you give an example? I'm not seeing this but may depend on the exact data of an item.
-
I don't think you can prevent this, no -- the citation tool is designed to omit duplicate punctuation. (Herv. im Orginal would work, of course; it's the period at the end)
-
How exactly are you adding this information and which citation style? I'm not seeing that behavior. Using the page and suffix field as recommended, I get (Koenecke et al. 2024, 15- emphasis added; Trice 1987)
-
Exactly, yes, you should use a single synced account or a group to collaborate
-
I don't believe you can. You'd have to reinsert any citations for which you want to modify metadata
-
Same thing -- name-part was never defined in the Chicago styles since they don't modify name parts, you had to add it as shown above.
-
There's lots of plugins doing this already -- you can use the forums to search. Given widely diverging views on AI among academics (as well as the many ways this could potentially be implemented), that seems like the better way to go here
-
Very much agree, yes, this would be helpful & low-hanging fruit (and should just resolve to the respective catalog, of course)
-
What do you mean by "my main Zotero folder is stored in Google Drive"? Generally, don't do that. If Zotero syncs to your Mac, that presumably means sync is working (you can also check the Web Library here on the site).
