  • Can you write down an English sentence describing exactly what you want to match? I had added some Wikipedia links which had entered as "Encyclopedia Articles" for reference. Probably be better as "website" since you wouldn't really need a "snapshot…
  • I'm pretty sure adding an option for that would create more confusion than it solves. I think that's the biggest concern with this. I had the following thought. In the right hand panel we can have a button or a checkbox that says something like "Op…
  • You can do something like this: Item Type is Attachment + Include parent and child items (note that after you tick this box, you should hit Search or this option will not save. This looks like a bug) Save this search as "with attachments" Now if …
  • "Publication" has a number of different fields with Title in the name. In fact the only field that doesn't have Title in the name is Publication. Maybe the field name should be "Pub. Title", and have the column name be "Title"? "Publication" refers …
  • If I understand you correctly, you want to find journal articles that do not have attachments. Then, your advanced search could look like this: Item Type is not Attachment Item Type is Journal Article + Include parent and child items of matching it…
  • I was playing with this and just noticed that some of the choices in the left most drop down in "Advanced Search" have a bubble point up when you mouse over. The mouse over text says for example "Thesis Type" but a display of a Thesis item the field…
  • I fixed the Springer Link translator to skip the ad-tracking pages (or whatever they are). This fixed the Safari issue on my end. @hbo101, update your translators and see if this is fixed. You'll probably need to update the translators in Zotero St…
  • I believe we're hitting https://github.com/zotero/zotero/pull/206 The connectors never received this update. I really think we need to update Connectors, since they are missing several important updates.
  • It seems that you just have PDFs on their own in your library. To attach metadata to PDFs, they need to be attached to Zotero items (parent items). Then you add the metadata to the Zotero item. See the image here: http://www.zotero.org/support/quic…
  • If you want to completely get rid of your library and start a new one, you can simply delete the "zotero.sqlite" file and the "storage" folder in your Zotero storage directory. You should probably make backups first (just in case) and have Zotero (o…
  • Can you replicate this in a clean Firefox profile? Create a new profile, install Zotero extension, import some items and try to export them. If the export works correctly, then try to export all of your items in RDF format from your old profile (in…
  • AFAIK CSL imposes no restrictions on what variables are available for which types. I think, in theory, everything is available for all types. I'll see what I can do for the Zotero matrix. If you need this some time soon, you may want to try and add…
  • yay! Thanks.
  • Ah, I see. I didn't think about setting the sort value using fields. Neat.
  • Is there a way to sort just the websites (independent of language) to the bottom? I don't think so. But I guess you could hack the language field for that.
  • Should be fixed for the next Zotero release.
  • OK, I can reproduce it on that site. I'll take a look and let you know what's happening.
  • Also those instructions are the same for Zotero for Firefox and Zotero Standalone. So go through the steps here: http://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_troubleshooting#zotero_toolbar_doesn_t_appear and then also see http://www.zotero.or…
  • You can try splitting up your RDF file. It should be safe to split the file right before bib:Article or bib:BookSection tags. Cut and paste everything below the split into a new text file and insert the following at the top: For the top section (…
  • see if anything here helps: http://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_troubleshooting
  • When you say "log in to Zotero" do you mean at zotero.org? Zotero.org login is independent of Zotero sync settings in the Zotero application. If you want to be able to access two independent Zotero libraries on the same computer, you can: Use diffe…
  • I can't reproduce this. Can you, adamsmith? Do you have any other extensions installed? If so, try disabling everything other than Zotero and see if it goes away. Also, I don't think this will make a difference, but you should update your Firefox …
  • Here's a more direct link to the paragraph that lists the download links: https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js#browser-extensions Edit: link updated. Thanks adamsmith
  • Again, what exactly do you mean by link? Are you trying to open PDF attachments? Are you clicking on the URL on the right column? It sounds to me like you are trying to open PDF attachments, but they're not displaying in Firefox. This could be a PD…
  • What version of Firefox and Zotero are you running? Is the "Multi-Site" checkbox also checked? Is wwww.nature.com in the list? You can also provide a Debug ID for an attempt to access a website that should redirect but doesn't. Just refreshing the…
  • Please don't double-post https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/29602/will-not-dispay-anything-in-sync-mode/
  • When I use Zotero in the sync mode using fire fox 1) Which version of Zotero and which version of Firefox 2) What do you mean by "sync mode". Do you mean that sync is enabled? I click on a lync and it flashes and goes to blank screen. What link and …
  • As I said above, please include all the relevant info from those steps. That would include: OS? Zotero Standalone or Zotero for Firefox? Zotero version? Browser? Browser version? The results of step 6. What does the tooltip say? Most importantly,…

  • I don't think unifying author names is such a great idea. Often, depending on the source of the data, Zotero can only import initials. If you unify author names, you may be able to expand the initials of some of the authors but not others. This coul…
  • If you suppress disambiguation on selected names that are distinct, that reduces the information available to the reader for identifying those particular author-date references in the bibliography, but not for others that may be mixed in with them. …
