Yes, author's first name disappeared a few weeks ago. A Chicago CSL update according to the new schema should be available shortly, where this error will be fixed.

kalmdown--go to print version for each article, then save the snapshot. the problem is the flash ads. print versions of articles usually only have one ad on top and their snapshots are easier to read. FAQ added. i would suggest that whenever possib…

Well, right now it's not automated for people who want CMS long citations and bibliography in the same document. The choices should be "Chicago with bibliography & short citations only" and "Chicago with bibliography" (which would include long &…

It would be nice to see the Zotero 2.0 functionality include functionality that can ease this. Periodicals really need to be treated as a first class citizen there, complete with canonical abbreviations. I believe this is planned for the hierarchica…

One easy workaround is to put everything in quotation marks, even if you're searching for one word--then Zotero will wait till you press enter. Another, a bit more cumbersome, is to type all the search words in a word processor, then copy and paste …

Dan and daniellej-- Actually, drag and drop to email and im works for me right now (I just tried Apple mail, iChat, and Skype on a Mac). Not sure about windows however. Email is an option in the New Item menu--try More>E-Mail. you can add email…

Great, thanks! It sorts alphabetically of course, but one could just add zeros to small numbers to sort correctly by page number, i.e. [002], [045], [367].

It would be nice to have child notes sortable by "name."
-
what about sorting by note? if one puts a page number at the beginning of the note, at least it should be possible to put notes in the order of page numbers. i got an impression that sorting by note should already be possible, it just hasn't been ad…

Looks like there is a need for an "Artifact" item type, not for citation, but for keeping track of physical objects (I guess this would be most useful for archaeologists and folklorists?). "Artwork" is meant mostly for visual culture items for citat…
-
This will be available in the hierarchical item types system--you'd enter it as an Artwork "contained in" a Book.
-
"Medium" could be used like a "Material" field (keeping in mind that this is often difficult to label with a single term), but the type still lacks a "Function" field. MTBradley--what would go into the "Function" field? Second, there is a real need …

this is probably not the same and i'm not sure if this can be fixed, but just to let you know-- if i restart firefox and it reloads a page with a proxied url from, say, history cooperative, i don't see the zotero download icons next to the url. to …

Two points: 1. There should be a preference allowing users to turn off adding link items when importing from online databases. For people who have 10,000+ items every extra item only slows down further an already pretty slow database. Right now I h…

All of the above can be entered as a Manuscript item type because that's what they are--unpublished written documents. You can use the "Type" field to enter the type of your manuscript: "handout", "field notes," "class notes," or whatever.

scot-- The Zotero Quick Copy issues have been mostly fixed on the development branch--there are now two separate quick copy shortcuts for a footnote citation and a bibliographic reference. The remaining bugs will be addressed soon. Bruce-- For the …

This doesn't address all your concerns, but the upcoming hierarchical item structure should include an "archive" or "archival collection" item type. It may not have as many fields as you request here--probably just name of collection, name of reposi…

Ticket created.

sybille-- you can also try this: create a saved search on item type "is not" note AND item type "is not" attachment. then use this search for citation. this will still find all works about the creator if his/her name is in the title/abstract, but…

Currently you can print selected references with all notes associated with them. Printing selected notes is coming soon.

On author/person item types, see a response from Dan Cohen from a few months ago (start of third paragraph). I'm not sure if anything has changed since then.
-
I believe Zotero developers have been working on a new, more sophisticated way to generate reports. The new setup will definitely include export of selected child items but unfortunately it wasn't ready for this public release.

zoila-- While CSL revisions that Bruce is talking about above may take a while to implement, the Zotero chicago note citation will be fixed in a few days -- there is a ticket for this. Most features you request for entering archival sources alrea…

Fredrik-- If you download 3.4 again (I uploaded a new version), it should work with Norwegian tags and import the main item types from Zotero RIS correctly. Elena

You can drag the note over a tag to add it. There are also two lines at the bottom of the note ("related: [click here]" and "tags: [click here]")--click on them to add related items and tags. In the dev version you can then search by tag and find n…
-
SiGi - there is an "extra" field for every item type where you can enter any user-specific information--maybe you could put your reference to the personal archive there.
-
i believe you can use a "child note" search to find parent items, i.e. you can search for "child note" contains [your reference info] and (parent) "tag" contains [whatever your tag is].

Well, Zotero already has an sql database backend, and it only needs a few tweaks to work as well with notetaking, as I explain here.
