• The download dialog option is really cool. However, it might be difficult to discover for power users of Firefox because at least I have disabled the dialog and just save everything to downloads. If it was possible to configure this behavior from th…

• Then it is probably a bug in the beta. I will start a new thread for a feature request.

• Yes. You can use any sqlite software. I do not know if there is any documentation, but the database is not very complex, so you can find the location where the paths are stored by browsing the database. Also there is a tool called ZotFile that does…

• There is no easy way to mass update all the links from the user interface. However, you could do this by modifying the Zotero database directly with SQL.

• I believe that this can be done. 1) You need to import the documents as linked files. 2) The absolute path to the document needs to be same on each computer (i.e. the network drive needs to be mapped to same letter on each computer on Windows) 3) Yo…

• Actually, it would be even better if the plugin would add all new citations that are inserted into a document to a particular library or collection.

• There is a bug in ZoteroQuickLook that prevented the custom view command from working. The bug can be fixed by changing the content of zoteroquicklook.js, openQuickLook function to the following [code] openQuickLook: function(items) { Zotero…

• I will test Sumatra PDF to see if I can get it to work.

• You can switch from OO to Word and back, but you need to switch the document to use bookmarks instead of reference marks or fields. I had to do this because I was writing with OO, but the journal where I submitted only accepted Word files (they did …

• I think that it would be more practical if you combined those photos to a single PDF. Would that work?

• I am fairly sure that the developers would be interested in more details of your experiences so that they can be avoided by others. You can remove the Zotero plugin files yourself if removing the firefox extension did not do this for you. See e.g. …

• We have a similar use case and are very happy with Zotero. There are approximately 15 people working in our research group. We set up one account for which we purchased 10 gigabytes of storage (100$/year). The only purpose of this account is to set …

• Actually, the plugin has a check that the customviewcommand setting is valid. However, I had never tested this and there actually was a bug. Your problem helped me find this bug, so thanks.

• Please let me know if the customviewcommand was not empty in the original profile. If it caused the behavior that you observed, it is a bug and needs to be fixed.

• Also, you should ensure that the value of "extensions.zoteroquicklook.customviewcommand" is empty in about:config

• It should not be possible for the the plugin to attempt to open the viewer before it has been initialized. Am I correct that the plugin does not work at all for you? Do you see the Quick Look context menu item when you right click on an attachment…

• These do not seem to be in order because init should always be first. Can you post around ten lines before and after one of the "ZoteroQuickLook opening viewer" This way all possible error messages will be included.

• I can confirm this. It is quite frustrating to always type the .bib filename suffix manually.

• In my case, an error message that tells that the CSL processor encountered an error would have helped. Since I knew that this was a style that I had written my self, I would have probably concluded more quickly that this was the cause of the error. …

  in "curr is undefined" in Mac Word 2011 Comment by mronkko June 8, 2011
• Yep. Still, a more informative error message than "curr is undefined" would be nice when the actual problem is an error in the csl style.
