Bump.

1. Is Zotero actually language-sensitive? That is, does it apply different sets of rules? (Just a question) 2. Good point. That's an import from an old biblio I had made. Note that if page numbers are missing the entry just ends without a final…

1. You know I tried that! But with three-letter codes, which is what I usually use. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes 2. You can try this one out of my library: https://www.zotero.org/john_muccigrosso/items/collection…

Two problems with the current version in the bibliography section: 1. text-case="title” doesn’t seem to account for foreign languages. For example "Und" is getting capitalized in the middle of German titles. 2. The names of editors after a…

The standalone really doesn't stand alone if it's looking at Firefox for settings.
-
This would suggest that the standalone really doesn't.
-
Yes. "works as expected" isn't a great answer here. Why should Zotero care whether I'm on line or not? The problems are obvious.
-
Thanks. So: 1. This is a bug in Zotero, right? 2. No way to implement this "work off-line" thing from within Zotero? (FF is not my default browser.)
-
Just had this problem this morning with an up-to-date MAcBook Pro installation using NeoOffice. Lion and Zotero at the latest versions. Worked fine once I was in the office and on-line. Where do I check the off-line mode?
-
Works for me. Thanks!
-
Not on my system. It left it where it was. This was after attaching the file with Zotfile, to be clear.
-
Ah, it actually does do what I want, though it explicitly says that it "stores a copy of the file in Zotero" which sounds exactly like what Zotero does, and I don't want. Should really read "Moves, renames and attaches..." (A related quest…
-
That seems to use a different file storage system entirely, and not have the option of defaulting to Zotero's built-in system, in contrast for what it does for renaming. For better or worse, I decided to let Zotero organize files. :-)
-
Good to know. Thanks. I was thinking that the metadata would be better with the connector. One difference between the two methods on this page: the right-click gives a better name to the snapshot, while the connector calls it simply "snapshot."
-
Yes, saw that and forgot to note. Sorry. Bit frustrating that I have to open FireFox.
-
Right, though it wouldn't be greyed out as it is now, though I suppose it could be grey-scale instead of colorful. (And now that I think of it, the special book icon is pretty dull too, though I guess Apple is moving towards grey all over the p…
-
I see what you mean, but I would put it this way: Both browser types give you a clear indication when Zotero has a special way to handle a site: Firefox has the URL-field icon; Safari has the changed button appearance. That means to me tha…
-
Ah, that's what it is! That's a major difference in functionality that had me confused. The Firefox button is always available and working (even if it does a different thing from Safari's), and I expected the Safari button to be as well. O…
-
I'll put it this way: with the exception of Amazon, my Zotero icon remains perpetually greyed out. So when I wrote "ordinary" I meant "not Amazon." This means that I can't add any of those non-Amazon sites to my collection. (There are indeed ot…
-
OK, upgraded Firefox to the 3.0 beta and set the connector.enabled pref to false. Then went to Safari and toggled the extension off and on. No error message now. Also the icon on blog pages is a greyed out Z with a line through it and the hover text…
-
I don't think the server settings are the problem (and I don't see that one in Firefox's about:config either). When toggled off then back on, the extension reports: "Zotero Connector for Safari 2.999.1 is incompatible with the running version o…
-
One-window apps are supposed to quit when their one window is closed, though there are a few exceptions out there. Not really sure why hiding or minimizing the window wouldn't suffice though.
-
Me too. Actually inclusion of even more of the standard commands and their keyboard equivalents would be nice: About Report a bug... Hide Hide Others The entire Help menu and so on.
-
I think it would be good to have the standalone page fully explain the situation with the hidden pref, even if it doesn't go on the hidden-pref page yet. It's here in this thread after all and a search like the one I used to get here would easily fi…
-
Importing problem. Error report 742134300. Standalone doesn't import a simple RIS file that the Mac Firefox does fine on: TY - JOUR N2 - A close study of Lat suffrāgium 'vote, voting' confirms its derivation from the IE root *bhreĝ- 'to …
-
I'm not repeating this well, so I'll play around a bit and see what I can do. The standalone isn't importing well, but i'll report that over there in that thread.
-
Could the info on the about:config connector pref get added to the hidden prefs page? And maybe also to the short page on the standalone? There's a reference to using connectors there, but not to the about:config part in FireFox.
-
Dan, I was doing something else and needed to reset for that.
-
Yes, bad day for me too on my Mac FireFox forcing a reset from the server.
-
GUI thing on the Mac version: lose the horizontal line at top right below the buttons and above the Toolbar. It shouldn't be there (and keeps making me think there's another window just behind Zotero).
