OK, I think I know what is happening. It would appear that there is no functional WoK translator. If you mouse over the article icon on the second one you will see that the DOI translator is the functional translator on these pages. The first ite…

I am having a bit of difficulty following you. Do you see the group's library in the Zotero Firefox extension? How did you try to upload from your library? If you want to move items from a personal collection to a group collection you need to drag…

Can you take note of URLS where Zotero fails and see if there is anything systematically different between the URLS it fails and succeeds on?
-
There is no direct way to copy a library. At this point, your best option is to create the group and then in the Zotero firefox extension create the collections you want to move over. Then select all (command shift A on a mac or control shift A on…
-
By defer to the group items, I mean that when I am working on a project I will cite them from the group library items instead of using the copies in my local library. In other cases I will actually delete my personal copy to make sure I am always us…

Zotero organizes your items in accordance with whatever citation style you chose. Try looking for a style that fits your journals needs on the styles page. You will find the sort block near the end of the CSL file. See http://xbiblio.sourceforge.ne…

Thanks for reporting this. Confirmed and ticket created. https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/1650

khazael: you can ask your members to change their email pref in their settings. By default Zotero does not want to send emails to everyone for every update. However, anyone can tick the box there to get emails about discussion messages. mdnicholso…

No, it has not and it will be quite some time until this kind of functionality can be developed.
-
This is not exactly what you are looking for, but it is something that gets close to this with current functionality. I have use a saved search where "date modified" "in the last" "1" day returns all of the items I have recently taken notes on, or…

Velovite, while I understand where you are coming from on this think about it from the perspective of creating style files. How should a style deal with "Loc in archive 1, Loc in archive 2" It just can't. This brings us back to a world where everyon…

There is currently no way to merge two items. At this point your best option for this kind of case is to pick which item you want and use that. Do keep in mind that you have access to the items in your group libraries in just the say ways you have a…

There should not be any problem with just switching over to Zotero storage. I know several folks that have done it without issue.
-
There is a bluebook style. You can find it on the styles page. It is still underdevelopment, see this thread for ongoing discussion.
-
Kmata, this is not currently possible. For a work around you can try keeping your library private and creating a group library to share any of the items you want to share.
-
There is a way, but it will take a bit of patience and diligence and some heavy hitting find and replace action. You can use the generic function to "export to bibliographic software" In the case of a reference I just looked up that created this:…
-
There is currently no option to set a style for those items, they are displayed in the generic format for Zotero items on the site. In the future you will be able to style the items dynamically through any of Zotero's styles. For the time being, if …

That is fantastic. Thanks for sharing!

I just tried several searches through ERIC and had no trouble grabbing items from both individual item pages and search results pages. For example this item works fine for me. Can you post some URLs that are not working for you?
-
Hi Rosanna, You can see how your Zotero storage space is being allocated by clicking on the settings link in the upper right corner of the Zotero website and then clicking on the storage tab. You should see a bar showing what percentage of your st…

Improving the report generation functions has been on the list of to dos for a long time, but I don't think it is likely to happen in the near future. With that said, the easiest thing to do is just use the Abstract field for your annotations and …

Took a look at it. The problem is with the original data on the site. The articles are all titled like that in the journal's reference export options. I would recommend contacting both the journal and the publisher.
-
There is no elegant solution for this at this time. There are plans to better support this use case in the future but for the time being the following steps are your best option. You can direct visitors to put their username and password into the s…

To resolve the issue it will be necessary to get some more information. Can you look over the sync documentation and provide a bit more detail about exactly what is or is not happening? What happens when you click the sync button? Can you see your l…

Group libraries are each independent. So if you drag an item from one group library to another you will create a copy of the item. Changes to either copy will not effect the other. As far as best practices are concerned, there are a lot of case de…

If you were shifted to a new profile you would still have a Zotero folder, that is created automatically. Try to see if you have other Firefox profiles, you can use this doc to run the Firefox profile manager to see if it was moved. http://support.m…

Can you make sure you are running the most recent version of Zotero (2.0rc2) and then make sure you are in the correct Firefox profile. See the trouble shooting Zotero data issues section of http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data for more details…

I would recommend playing around with a saved search. I keep a saved search called "Notebook" which is simply a search for Item Type is Note. I can then just click the saved search and sort by date added or modified to see my recent activity for not…
