"Are you aware that you can get from "Edit citation" in Word to "Show in Zotero" for individual items, though? " That would do the trick. I'll check that.
-
@adamsmith Yes, those were chapters from an ebook, downloaded from De Gruyter via my university account. @dstillman I'm not certain, I might have downloaded these files into Zotero with another computer. If I use the computer B and I do the sync…
-
@dstillman Thanks! That would be a great addition to the current feature set from my user perspective.
-
@dstillman Thanks! Can I restore my library from my WebDAV or what would be the best way to go about it?
-
@dstillman In the meantime I set the max character to: 200000, so it's lower than the default setting. Max pages are at default: 100 Index Statistics Indexed: 1811 partially: 88 not indexed: 148 Words: 293462 It's still quite slow, even though …

@adamsmith Did you receive my log?
-
Absolutely, Andselisk. It's true, it might be related to the PDF indexing feature / "pdftotext". I only use the standard number of characters though.
-
Yes, I use 5.0.30. I just created a log and a bug report. The ID is: D469739102
-
Alright, managed it. I first had to login with my standard Zotero login and in a second step I was able to set up the WebDAV as a syncing option. If I'm not mistaken, in the previous version one could directly access the option for WebDAV from th…

I can open it in an external pdf viewer, by clicking the corresponding option in Zotero. But I cannot view the pdf in Firefox, when I try to open it from the library. At the same time I can view online pdfs in Firefox, just not from the Zotero libra…
-
@damnation Yeah, looks quite similar to what I want. Only difference I can see: yours uses English terminology like "Ibid.". Nice work though! @adamsmith Thanks, looks like what I was looking for!
-
Thanks! Will try them.
-
Yes, that's the way I do it. Unfortunately there is no way for me to filter for ibid. / ebd. as well.
-
I'm not required to use this style, but it seemed to be the closest to the style I want. In the Zotero style repository, is there a way to tell whether a style uses Ibid. (or German: ebd.)? I actually want some kind of "German Harvard style": inli…
-
Okay, the problem with the letter automatically added to the years seems to have disappeared. I don't get the "ibid." function to work however. Here are two inline citations of two different chapters of a edited volume: (Glushko; Hemerly; u.a. 201…
-
I use a German language style (unlike the examples I mentioned above): it's called "Fachhochschule Vorarlberg (author-date, German)".
-
Also, the ibid function doesn't work...?
-
Yes, happens too in a new document, once I cite more than one chapter from this edited volume. Maybe Zotero thinks I refer to different publications of the same authors (Glushko et al.) and the same year (2013), even though it's just different chapt…

Thanks!

"the right way to add citations to add "see" and the like is to use the prefix/suffix field. That way you can freely switch styles" Could you elaborate a bit further please. How do I add the prefix/suffix field when I import citations into Word? …
-
The problem is: I have a text with many citations already. A lot of my citations are edited manually. For example, I have a citation (Miller 1979) and I edited it to (see Miller 1979). Now if I change a style, my manual edits will be lost. Only the …
-
So it depends on the style I've chosen? I use DIN 1505-2 style currently, since I'm working on a German language academic text. It doesn't look like this style is supporting it. A follow up question: What about references to multiple sources at …
-
@adamsmith Obviously I'm using the Zotero browser add-on (Firefox) and a plugin for my text processor (Word), but it's news to me that Zotero requires any additional add-ons (apart from the ones I mentioned) to function properly. Which additional ad…
-
Thanks bwiernik, but I really want to avoid installing additional plugins / addons that could potentially cause additional problems. I just wish Zotero could do this by itself. I wonder why it could be so challenging to implement the grouping of rel…
-
Okay, thanks. But currently there is no way to automatically use the information from the parent book (the edited volume) for the single chapters that I relate to the book? "Book Sections" and the parent "Book" share a lot of common fields, that's w…
-
Great, thanks!
-
Thanks for your help!
-
I see - it depends on the platform / host from where I access the file, right?
-
For example this one (German language): http://doku.iab.de/fdz/reporte/2012/MR_04-12.pdf Zotero will define it as website (it's actually a sort of report) and it will only take the name of the pdf file as title. This is when I save it without snap…

Thanks. What would be an aggregator for journal articles? Do you mean services such as Google Scholar (to name an example) ?
