What word processor are you using? Can you reproduce the problem in a new document?
-
Ok, that's what you should see, thanks. If anybody else gives a shot at testing this do report whether it works and whether you can see the citation modified prompt.
-
@khepri As a test, could you open a new Word document, insert a citation, then using Word modify the citation text (just add a few random characters) and then try to edit the citation. Do you get a prompt about the citation text being edited, or an …

To those still experiencing this: could you download the Zotero Beta open it, then go into Zotero Preferences -> Cite -> Word Processors, reinstall the Word processor and see whether the issue is fixed after that?
-
Oh yeah, there is a bug when converting directly from endnotes to in-text styles that we haven't got around to fixing. It's best to not go directly to endnotes to in-text styles and vice-versa, and to do the conversion via footnotes.
-
@gustav.kalm Is this a new M1 Mac or an older one? Please submit a Debug ID (see link in the comment above).
-
Zotero won't convert any footnotes or endnotes with citations to in-text citations if there is any other text in them. Even if the other text is empty space. If you're seeing something else, try reproducing it in a new document and explaining what y…

Do you run any security software on this Mac? Have you tried disabling it? Does it help if you make sure that both Zotero and Word windows are visible on screen? Does inserting citations ever succeed or does it fail every time?
-
@janafienchen So there's two problems here. One is a bug in Zotero not properly reporting why the installation failed. We'll have a fix for that out at least in the Zotero Beta sometime soon. The other is that Zotero fails to install the plugin prob…

We mean to fully localize the connector and we have a framework for that in place, but there's a lot of areas to work in and full localization never quite takes precedence. We're willing to take a localization PR from the community though. You (or a…

Depending on the size of the document the update might take a while. If it works fine in a new document you should give Zotero time to work.
-
@bkjakubiak @christakelleher @wagszoo Do you still see this problem? Did you try updating to Word 16.47 and is it still present there?
-
This is planned but it's quite complicated to implement and not happening in the near future.

The Linux LibreOffice and Zotero integration is perhaps the fastest one out of all the possible combinations, so this is something very specific to your configuration. I don't have many ideas here since we've never had to troubleshoot this kind of s…

The document you're working with somehow got its metadata corrupt. Debugging broken documents instructions should help you fix this, most likely by copying the the document text to a new one.
-
Based on everyone's report logs and provided details it seems that you are all having errors with different causes that will need to be troubleshooted separately, so I'll give individual instructions below. @lrevie Restart your Mac and try again. M…

We're working on a fix. Please follow this thread https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/87292/microsoft-word-for-mac-sudden-conflict-with-word-processor-add-in-run-time-error-5

@sdflewrit783 This does sound like a bug. Can you reproduce it in a new document? If so, can you provide detailed steps for it?

Internet browser vendors have been making various changes over the past few of years to improve browser security that unfortunately have severely neutered our ability to make the bookmarklet work on most pages, so we'e not doing any testing or updat…

You should make sure that Word startup location is set to its default as described in the Zotero word processor plugin manual installation instructions, otherwise you might not get plugin updates in the future.
-
For all the testing we have done reverting to an earlier version usually works, but if it does not it's hard to say why it doesn't work since it's a Google Docs functionality and it may be misbehaving. You could try to use the Compare Documents opti…

This is the documentation for the storage APIs, but I don't think there's any APIs to write to specific extension storage. Customized builds are probably going to be too much of a headache to set up and maintain. The Connector frequently receives up…

New citations should be linked fine. You may enable field code display in Word to see whether Zotero citations are actually linked or not. If they are no longer linked there is no automatic way to relink them. Newly added citations should be linked.…

@sadekkessous @petros32 What Macs are you using? Does it help if you switch the active window to Word entering the citation in the citation dialog?
-
@sadekkessous Could you give details on what happened when generating that Debug ID? Did you select a reference and then nothing happened for a while before seeing an error?
-
@petros32 You seem to have copied the Debug ID wrong. Could you produce another one and post it here?
-
@petros32 Could you also produce a Debug ID (see link above)?
-
Could you produce a Debug ID from Zotero for a failing operation?
-
This could happen if one of the items has become unlinked from your Zotero library. Can you reproduce this in a new document?
-
Does it work if you restart your computer? What operating system are you running?
