  • plicplouf: sorry for ignoring you for a while. is html tag that will be filtered by the importer or the web translator. Here we are discussing bibtex export. I don't think we can help you on that. My implementation works with zotero addon for firef…
  • what did not work? how did you follow the instructions and the tips in the discussions? nobody can help you if you don't provide details.
  • Glad that you got your problem solved. I don't have the file path delimiter problem. I guesss it is because I use jabref under linux.
  • Theo, you have to set "extensions.zotero.translator.bibtexExportLocalFilePath" to a boolean of true. The way to change it is to first remove it and then create a boolean preference named as the above.
  • just made my comments at the new plugin's topic. It can not export the local path of attachments. And the user preference settings have to be done manually in the js file. If you want these features, unfortunately you still have to install my impl…
  • I'm glad that somebody is going forward on this issue. But an important feature of my original bibtex export tool is missing in this plugin. That is the export of the local path of attachments for cooperating with other applications. Unfortunately I…
  • I am a normal user just like you. I don't know how to write a plugin. It may take me a while to learn it. Go ahead if you want to convert it to a plugin. I really hoped most of the features I proposed here would've got merged to the official co…
  • see my solution at http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/17847/improving-bibtex-export/ It is just updated for zotero 3.0.3.

  • If you indeed want function 4 only, you only need to modify two files: item_local.js and BibTeXTan.js or BibTeX.js. You can take a look at the patch files to figure out how to do the modifications. On the other hand, it would be much simpler to…
  • The purpose of the getPrefs() function is for users not to change the codes but put user specific settings in firefox preferences. Just open a new tab and type about:config. Then use zotero as filter to see all zotero related preferences. In your ca…
  • There should be a lot of bibtex/latex users in the zotero community, right? Or they shy away from it due to the poor bibtex support? I guess that many of these users would love my implementations. If you do, please show some support and make so…
  • sdaza, noksagt gave you good advice. But I just wanted to point out that it is fairly easy to change the zotero core files if you know where your firefox profile folder is. The file zotero.jar is in the chrome directory of the zotero extension …
  • My solution for the key collision problem is only good for up to two-chars, partly because I thought the key format would be too bad if you got more than 600 collisions for one key. But clearly ajlyon provides a much more elegant solution. That is a…
  • see more discussions in zotero-dev: http://groups.google.com/group/zotero-dev/browse_thread/thread/53d7c67357f74cef/26c751f6f0108e07
  • see my solution and more in the post: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/17847/improving-bibtex-export/ I hope some devs can push it into the next release of zotero.

  • Thanks for the quick reply. just posted it agin on zotero-dev. never used github before. I'll try to post my code there.
  • Bibtex is one of the most commonly used citation format for research scientists and other latex lovers. There are 3 things that need to be improved for this format. First of all, the user should be able to design his own keys, like Dan Stillman sugg…
  • Any progress on aps.org translator for Physical Review Series Journals? BTW, the feature of automatically downloading associated pdf files is not working. It would be nice if it can save the pdf file at the same time. Thanks.
