another beginner's question: I'm having some difficulty with renaming rules - specifically that, although the Zotfile wildcards list describes %a as for "last names of authors (*not editors etc*)", and lists a separate set of wildcards for editors (…
-
Yep it looks like the library's e-shelf functionality is seriously outdated. I finally got around it by setting up an Endnote account, exporting from library to Endnote for web, and then from there exporting as a RIS file (with tags in the right ord…

Thanks bwiernik. I suppose a lot rides on what constitutes "properly formed" - if this really is some kind of industry standard then this library database is wilfully going against that by starting with DO - and ID -; I assume that's because this is…

Oh one more thing (and I must admit to knowing basically nothing about coding), in case it makes a difference: when I export the results from the library e-shelf I have the following encoding options: - ISO-8859-1 - UTF-8 [the default which I used…

Wow, it really is just about the placement of the TY tag... do you think other software outputs like that on purpose to jam Zotero input? There's no easy way to make it possible for Zotero to read alternative orderings? Thanks for your suggestions…

It's http://search.lib.monash.edu/, but specifically a function called 'e-shelf' (FTR: the Zotero plugin works perfectly well for the catalogue itself, but I have over 200 records already saved from years of study that I'd like to be able to import …

Thanks, though I'm finding anystyle extremely difficult to work with. It's actually about getting saved library records from my institution into Zotero - it only offers export to Easybib, Endnote, Refworks or Delicious, or email / pdf, and no clean …

Well maybe not but the descriptions of how to access Zotfile Preferences already need to be updated, so that will already compound the problem I suppose.
-
Yep, got it now - thanks. For anyone else, Zotfile Preferences (*not* Zotero Preferences) is accessed via the gear icon in Zotero Standalone menu bar, which is sometimes referred to as 'Zotero Actions' (perhaps it's called this in the Firefox versio…

Thankyou! That's so simple. And yet I didn't encounter anything that actually made that explicit... Maybe the description on zotfile.com could be updated? Still a very beginner user here. Really appreciate your assistance!

Hi all. Firstly, a shout out to the people tirelessly answering questions and providing help on these fora! Thanks. Can I make one suggestion first off - shunting all Zotfile-related queries to this one thread (as happened here, for one of many exam…

Can you explain what the solution was?
-
Any news on the ability to store chapters under the book as the parent item in Zotero Standalone?
-
Thanks! I'd be happy to ask them (by which I assume you mean PhilPapers) - will just send them an email? Or let me know if you mean something more specific than this.
-
This translator is great to have - thanks to whoever wrote it! But FWIW, I'm finding I'm not getting all the data which is clearly available in the PhilPapers fields i.e. Abstract, ISBN. It also attaches a 'Snapshot' to the entry which gives no info…

Any update on this feature?
