Are you (or can you) testing this in a fresh document with just one footnote to make sure we have a minimal case in which this is broken?
-
It looks like you tried to insert the bibliography in a footnote. That won't work. So 1. Delete the ACS bibliography 2. Switch back to Chicago Manual and OK 3. Switch back to ACS style and OK -- the foonotes (now in grey) should disappear 4. Move yo…
-
What do you mean exactly? You should be able to switch to ACS style in the document preferences. You can't have 2 styles in a document
-
Shortcuts are just a bit further up from where you are, but you don't need to see the settings to use them.
-
Shift+ctrl+c is available when you have items selected in the middle panel (otherwise it doesn't do anything). There's a Z7 compatible version of Zutilo linked from a support thread (and I mention an alternative add-on, too).
-
Either you're citing an attachment/stored file directly or you just have very poor metadata for an item in Zotero. Look at the entry of the item you're citing in Zotero -- it should, e.g., have a date and a proper title and likely an author.
-
Are you aware of the related section on the right? That's what it's for: https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u2433/50f97ec03m6kdddwknvz.png
-
This is not American Chemical Society (not even close); it's a footnote style, likely Chicago (Note). You select a citation style for your document in the ZOtero Document prefences in Word.
-
That should work just fine and does for me. So just to walk through this: 1. In Word, from the References ribbon, insert a footnote 2. Type whatever text you want in the footnote. 3. With the cursor still in the footnote, click add/edit citation i…
-
The DIN style still has some weirdness, so at least with two items you'd definitely get [1],[2]. You can try Vancouver brackets or the ACM SIG style (https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:acm-sig-proceedings-long-author-list&dependent=0 ) to see …
-
Hierarchical item relationships -- i.e. the ability to group chapters with an edited volume -- have long been requested and devs are certainly aware of the demand, though I don't think it's going to happen any time soon given the technical constrain…
-
I think this is about incorrectly detected duplicate items -- currently you just ignore them. There are plans to add an option to mark items as "not duplicate"
-
What happens if you use "Create Bibliography" for those items from within Zotero and then select "Citation" as a format (and copy them to the clipboard). Do they look right? There's certainly nothing in the style that should cause this and we haven…
-
Which citation style are you using?
-
No, you can get superscript numbers and numbered bibliography at the back (that's Nature style, e.g.), but not in the footer.
-
For now, you can search for large PDF files within your Zotero data directory and delete them manually — just be sure they've been uploaded and are accessible from the web library, which they should be if syncing has been set up and working correctl…
-
That's what groups are for. You can set up groups so members can't edit or add items
-
But I suspect you don't actually want a note style like Chicago -- the Chicago Manual e.g. says very clearly not to do this. Any style we call 'numeric' (Vancouver, IEEE, Nature, e.g.) will do this automatically
-
Make sure that you use the BetterBibTeX (or BetterBibLaTeX) export formats, not Zotero's built-in formats, and if that's the case, contact the BBT developer on his github -- those are functionalities provided by the add-on, not by Zotero.
-
Common actions already have dedicated keyboard shortcuts, including a shortcut for copying the bibliography for the selected items (Shift+ctrl+c) -- visible/readable in the File menu when you have those items selected. Less common functions can be …
-
That's what accounts are for. No limitations I'm aware of, no.
-
We do have numbers in parentheses and the rest of the citation flush though. I do see the ACS guide does this differently, but you will also see that they refer to a uniform process for all their journals -- ACS did communicate the style to us as is…
-
"Insert Citation" is not a Zotero button. Do you mean "Add/edit citation", or are you using the button for a different tool (Word's built-in tool uses insert Citation, e.g.)
-
It's not clear to me if you have a short title entered in Zotero?
-
You can insert the reference after writing in a footnote, yes. If that doesn't work, you'd have to say more (what exactly are you doing in what software with which citation style in Zotero, what exactly do you see happening (or not) etc.; this certa…
-
Can you save other pages from the browser extension? If so, you're most likely just overlooking the icon. If not, you've double checked that you have the Zotero Chrome extension installed?
-
yes -- that's one of the reasons that having something fancier than the current omit author option for narrative citations would be nice.
-
Basically -- most people use this with a 3rd party sync service like Dropbox, which won't work for you (because it relies on internet on the Android device), so you will have to understand the principles of how this operates and then adapt them to y…
-
No, the first one is correct APA. No a,b for different author groups. Try deleting and reinserting the citation?
-
You can use the ZotMoov send to tablet function. I'm not sure how good the documentation in English is, it's equivalent to the ZotFile feature of the same name. Note, though, this means not using the Zotero app on Android -- that does require inte…
