Again, a static field is perfectly fine for now! :)
-
That's pretty cool, and it's unfortunate that its usage can get you booted. Call numbers are used to find books in a library, like the Dewey decimal system, so I'd rather not have that field used to tell me the number of citations. I'd prefer the fi…

I was having problems pasting text into notes (as well as Yahoo mail, gmail, and Ubuntu forums) on my Ubuntu machine, but what worked was holding down the "Super-key" while doing ctrl-v. (The Super-key is the Windows key, which we ubuntu users may c…

I'm not sure what this step means for me to do: "Open LyX and set LyXServer path (in LyX go to menu, Tools > Preferences... > Inputs > Paths and set LyXServer path to): Windows users can use the default path setting in LyZ, i.e. “\\.\pipe\l…

Just thought that I'd add that I proved to myself that Zotero automatically applies the periods to initials, (so confirming, just give initials without periods) and when stating the edition, giving a numeral (e.g. 4) is superior to typing, for examp…

Thanks for that tidbit. I may have known that before, but I had completely forgot it...
-
I use Ubuntu, so that's relevant! It would be nice if that were noted in the knowledge base! (When might it be fixed?)
-
I would like to suggest adding to the knowledge-base article a little bit more detail about this. "Begin by dragging your existing PDFs into your Zotero library. Once they appear in the middle column, select the ones for which you wish to retrieve …

Heckscher, I have the same issue, and my workaround is to toggle fullscreen off and on (UNmaximize, then maximize it again). What I think is happening, is fullscreen Zotero is coming up with the Firefox, but Firefox brings up a blank screen underne…

I understand there's a way to tell Zotero, in APA Style, not to initialize a first name. The links where we discussed this are at the bottom. I think this may work for you, but one would apparently need to input the first names as it should appear…

thanks, I'll try it!
-
worked for me
-
I didn't know you could do that, that might save time...
-
Good, Zotero is smart. Can it write my papers for me too? :)
-
Sweet, I've been doing right then. Thanks. Aaron

So should I put periods after the initials in the database? For example, if I have a middle initial, and not the full middle name, should I put a period after that initial in the database?

Any other researchers here want to add their best practices?
-
No, report errors is greyed out in the actions menu.

Had the same thing happen in another field, Publication. This time no easy work-around solved it, I played around with it until it finally let me.

I'm not really at the point where I just go to my professors or TAs anymore. I'm getting to where I'm going to be submitting to journals. Which is why I am so appreciative of your response. ESPECIALLY the csl! THANKS!

Anyone have thoughts?

Here's another question: when I'm wanting to cite an AP story I'm reading on Yahoo news, is it a webpage? a newspaper? something else?
-
I'm learning interesting things here...

That's what I meant :) Uber, that's a useful command.

I have ubuntu, with the OOo plugin and I'm using version 2 rc. I 'm not sure what is meant by a global install, but it's all working fine for me... why not use a group to share citations online?
-
I'm using 2 rc, thanks for the warning. Adamsmith is a great name, pseudonym? Do you have an econ group? Is it impolitic to talk about forming groups for sharing citations?
-
Does it work with Zotero 3 rc?

Ubuntu users unite!!
