Hi, I have the same error. I've tried upgrading both Zotero and the Adobe PDF plug-in. Neither worked... Any advice?

EDIT: Without the space after the bracket, or before the date i.e. Not "( ", but "("

Hi Dan, I'm on UK everything, with a GB firefox locale, but the javascript:alert(new Date().toLocaleDateString()) is still in US order. Can this be changed? By me? Or in the next build? Thanks!

This is (still) working fine for me since around November. It doesn't work in the Zotero test-pane, but works in Word (XP, v. 2003) (Carson, 1965; Attenborough, 1979). Attenborough, S.D. (1979) Life on Earth: A Natural History. Fontana. Carson, R. …

I love Zotero. It has made my PhD thesis, which now has 1900 citations, a joy to manage. But the 'search as you type' in the word plug-in makes me curse, loudly, each time I inadvertently trigger it. My library of 4700 refs (with 3000+ PDFs) takes…

Frank - this initial-splitting is really shitting me here. It seems ludicrous that it's beyond the wit of the current processor to work out that "C.R." and "C. R." are the same bloke... Any chance the new CSL will be launched onto the world befor…

OK - I confirmed it myself with my own link to the free paper above :) there is evidence of poor dispersal of fungal species outside Pinaceae plantations (Mikola 1953, Lamb 1979, Allen et al. 1992, Davis et al. 1996) If someone could fix this sort…

You can fix your local copy of the style by changing the lines: to in the section. (NOT the bibliography section) General instructions are here: http://www.zotero.org/support/csl_simple_edits If you can you confirm, either from the…

I assume you are talking about (Smith, 1999, Adams, 2001) type sorting? Since Dan applied the patch to the main Zotero update (version 2.0b6? or so) in late November, it's been working fine for me. What version are you running? What word-processor…

Yeah - me too. Interesting glitch. It creates an invisible hyperlink which just leads you back to the parent item...

There is no such thing as official "Harvard" format - http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/harvard_style It looks like you are trying to follow "Anglia Harvard", as defined by your University. If none of the existing styles at the repository are cl…

I can't see why you would ever want uppercase authors (or titles for that matter). PLEASE could this be changed (for 2.1?) to convert to title case on import. (especially for authors)
-
Hi Kristian, Yes this is possible if your document is HTML - I wrote a style that makes a link with the bibliography, and you could modify that to make the link at the Citation. But no, not in Word. Only for a webpage... See here for the link (th…

Opening snapshots in a new tab - Control click on the View button in the right-hand pane - has stopped working for me??? Is this a bug or deliberate? (or just me?!)

There are some basic step-by-step instructions similar to those above in the help wiki: http://www.zotero.org/support/csl_simple_edits

Hi MacLib, I'd be happy to make this style for you. Just have a quick go at the above information on requesting styles. Maybe British Ecological Society as a starting point?

I also had the "Zotero experienced a problem updating your document" error appear, all of a sudden. I had just (inadvertently, and for the first time) used Word's "Research" function. not sure if this is related. I had to restart the computer to g…

I don't think that will be possible automatically. I'm not the expert, but I think the only way to do it will be the method listed at the above discussion - using another field (such as Extra) to store the Author abbreviation. The "short-form" is …

Not sure this is exactly your solution though... The RTF scan simply makes formatted Citations and a Bibliography from the RTF document. Sadly, it does not recreate a "live" Zotero-linked document that you can then easily edit further. ( I wish …

It's very simple to change a style to do this. There are some step-by-step instructions here: http://www.zotero.org/support/csl_simple_edits You just need to find the section - probably about 3/4 of the way down - and where it says change the ( …

Ask your professors what they were not marking while they were marking the minutiae of your referencing style... (surely the content is the important part!) http://www.doceo.co.uk/reflection/2009/04/on-shibboleth-of-harvard-referencing.htm (sorry j…

This info especially should help! http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/given_name_disambiguation

I know one user who has written a really cool data-mining tool to extract terms (especially rare nouns and noun combos) from the full-text and create a lovely an informative index. It's an early alpha, and needs some more input - but I hope he gets …

Just for info: The style guide is a big thick expensive book... There are some free online 'interpretations' of the style, but they aren't 'official'.

Yeah I'm pretty sure. My database is beautifully clean (has taken days!) - with mostly one PDF attachment per item (no dupes). But I wanted to just back up all the PDFs from the storage folder, so did a search for *.pdf, then copied them all into a…

There was also a really weird import error with items with 10 or more authors. The order of the authors was shuffled: e.g. for one paper with 20 authors The first 9 authors were shuffled up to 11th - 20th, the last author was inserted at 12th -- an…

No they aren't in the old backup... Don't know how I managed that... (PEBKAC again no doubt.) I have been backing up most days though, and might have done something strange during moving files etc. I also removed all tags the other day (as per ht…
