@melissa.ma Thanks for reporting this! We’ve deployed a fix for the crash, so it should no longer happen when using the CMOS 18th (Notes without Bibliography).
-
We’ve deployed a fix to zbib.org. This update resolves an issue where items that couldn’t generate a valid bibliographic entry appeared empty. It also fixes a related problem where clicking on such an item would open the editor for a different item.
-
In your particular case, click on the last item before the empty one - this should open the editor for the missing item. Change the item type to anything else and then back. This might remove some data from that entry, but it should fix the issue. …

Thank you for reporting this. We’re aware of the issue, which affects some citation styles, and will be updating ZBib with a fix soon. For the time being, as this only happens with some styles and only during editing (i.e. the final exported biblio…

You can disable this feature so that you’re prompted each time you try to save while Zotero isn’t running. To do this:Right-click the Zotero Connector icon in your browser.Select Preferences (or Options, depending on your browser).In the configurat…

You can use a regular expression to achieve this, e.g. {{ title replaceFrom="^([^:.?]+).*$" replaceTo="$1" truncate="100" }} This will produce a title truncated after “:”, “.”, or “?”, and also after a maximum of 100 characters. Combining it with…

It sounds like there’s a problem with syncing. See the troubleshooting steps at https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/changes_not_syncing (Also, please note that search in the web library is more limited — it can only search by title, creator, year, an…

On top of the questions Dan asked above, could you also let us know if: You can see any errors in the browser consoleIt works if you use the keyboard (Tab/arrow keys to move the focus around, Enter/Space to confirm)?
-
In the desktop app, hover over the circular arrows icon in the top-right corner to see when it last synced, and click on it to start an immediate sync. If the libraries still do not sync, check the steps listed at https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/c…

The URL shown in the screenshot you posted is incorrect — not sure where you got it. If you instead click on the “Web Library” link, it should open the correct URL. Once the web library UI loads, if the items you see there do not match what you see…
-
Zotero has a built-in importer for Mendeley, which should yield better results.
-
Could you post a screenshot with the console open? From the sound of it, it’s most likely caused by a browser plugin or some security software on your computer. Does it work if you use a different browser?
-
It usually means that the web library is loading, but some data is taking longer to download. Try reloading the page, and if that doesn’t help, see if any errors are printed to the browser console.
-
In your screenshots, your Attachment Info pane is collapsed, so it’s very hard to understand what the problem is. If you select one of the attachment items and expand the pane (the little downward-pointing chevron next to the “Attachment Info” heade…

Thank you for reporting the issue. This should be fixed in the latest beta.
-
There appears to be a bug in the current beta regarding the recognition of changes to authors. Thanks for letting us know — we’ll fix it.
-
Only the primary file is renamed - the one that would open if you double-clicked on the parent item.
-
Parsing of the date depends on the language Zotero is configured to use. You can change it in Zotero preferences. For example, setting it to “English (UK)” will parse the date as dd.mm.yyyy.
-
These features (except for the first one which isn't planned) have already been implemented and are coming in Zotero 8. You can try it for yourself — it’s available at https://www.zotero.org/support/beta_builds. The database structure is unaffected …

Use this button: https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u3978561/drqewo6tzdoajhbh6l66.png If you’re on a mobile/tablet, this icon appears at the bottom of the screen when at least one item is selected. The web library can currently gen…
-
How many collections are there in that library? Could you please load the web library with the browser console opened, the Network tab selected, so that 429 errors (and the URLs it tries to load) are visible, and post a screenshot here? Again, sto…
-
The web library is never “blocked” and will work regardless of your storage status. The only thing that storage is relevant for is file syncing — if you don’t have enough quota, some files might not sync to the web library. The screen you’re seeing…

There is no “chat” in Zotero. You can invite other people to group libraries on the groups page (there is a link at the top of this page), and once you both configure syncing on your machines you will be able to see and manage the shared library.
-
Since you’ve confirmed that the data is not present in the web library, the problem is on the device where the data originated. Follow the debug steps listed at https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/changes_not_syncing

It should be possible to upgrade a MacBook from 2016 to macOS 12 without any third-party patches. See if you can find your particular model here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/103260. With macOS 12, you will be able to upgrade both Chrome and Zot…

That’s worth considering. That being said, it’s possible with the current system — you can use match to check the content of one field and then decide to use it or fall back to another. Here is an example where journalAbbreviation is used if present…

Zotero Storage works on a subscription basis, similar to other services (Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.). You pay for a set amount of space and can use it during the active subscription period. If you don’t use all the space before your plan expires, …
-
I believe it’s the other way around. Desktop Zotero uses a more recent version of the .csl file responsible for how the citation appears, while the web library still uses an older version. I’ll let others comment on which one is valid and whether th…

I thought I could use \p{L} to include all unicode characters defined as letters, but it doesn't work. With the u included in regexOpts as you did (we will consider making this included by default), this template should work. In fact, I copy-pasted…
