How can I check a refresh is in progress? Refresh doesn't seem to be working. Also using Zotero with MS Word on Mac. My document is only 30 pages long, but I was just about to submit it for my deadline. Prior bibliography updates didn't take too lon…

The bibliography is correctly formed, it's not a style problem. I was asking if the Zotero main pane column (Creator) could be populated with Director, Cast Member, Contributor, Producer, or Scriptwriter. It's a Zotero display problem. In general,…

Any possibility the date column will be added to Advanced Search? Its utility would be very much enhanced.

In the item type Video recording, which is what I'm using for Youtube videos, there is no Author field. For the originator, you have a choice of Director, Cast Member, Contributor, Producer, Scriptwriter. Since I'm citing TV commercials, I've put t…

Hello, do I need all these sqlite files? My Macbook Air says its drive is nearly full. https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u5740425/cdafnp2ih0j2ukri036p.png Also, Zotero Storage contains nearly 1GB, is this normal? Can I slim this do…

Similar. My desktop Zotero crashed after an update and wouldn't open. Mac mini, Monterey 12.6.1 I deinstalled desktop Zotero and associated files, downloaded and installed the current version, and logged in to sync. It seems to be working now. May…

I'm using Safari. Awaiting the stable Zotero plug-in.

No, https://www.zotero.org/save did NOT derive a Zotero entry from the Amazon page or the Google page. I used Google Books's "create citation" function to download a Bibtex file. I was attempting a workaround when Add Item by Identifier didn't work…
-
Zotero cannot scrape a Web page? I thought that's how https://www.zotero.org/save worked. The major booksellers and Amazon all have field formats for books.
-
However, Google can generate a citation from the existing information. This would be a good feature for Zotero, manual entry of item information being very time-consuming and frustrating.

I am finding the same problem, adding ISBN from books on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc. Very often, the ISBN is not recognized, Magic Wand returns "Lookup Failed". Example: https://www.amazon.com/Psychiatrized-Waking-After-Decade-Medicine/dp/B099B…

Right, this time the date did appear in the bibliography, but no date in the Year column. (I had kludged my entry by putting the date in the Title as well.) What is the reasoning behind not showing the year in the Year column in the main page? This…
-
I was just going to start a thread about this. You can add the date in the Extra field, but it will not appear in the Year column in the main Zotero pane (which I find to be very important), citation or bibliography. (The Retrieved date, if any, wi…

Should I be able to drag a folder to my colleague's group on the Web interface? This does not seem to work in Safari? Are the items I share duplicated in my colleague's Zotero storage? Is there any additional burden on my storage? Do the items I s…
-
How do I drag my folder structure to my colleague's group? This will place aliases for my items in his Zotero library, is that correct? Then he can use Zotero tools to search them, etc.?
-
Hello, I would like to share my library with the representative of a group as described by adamsmith in #2 above. I have added the private group to my account on Zotero.org. Do I now have to drag my entire library into that group's library? Where s…
-
I have saved the bibliography. There is no RTF choice in the Export function. How do I go backward to search results so I can save this bibliography as RTF? Where do I do right-click (I use a Mac).
-
Do you think you could make the merge recognize Book Section sub to Book and populate the Book Section fields with the Book information?
-
How do I merge them? If I may suggest, you might utilize the hierarchy Book / Book Section so that the merge alone populates the needed fields for the Book Section bibliography.
-
To properly cite a Book Section, some of the Book information should be included in the bibliography for that item. If I could drag and drop the Book Section onto the Book or otherwise show the relationship of the Book Section to the Book, perhaps…
-
This happened twice today. Case 1: I found an essay on a Web site. I added it to Zotero via URL. Then I looked up the authors to see if it had been published as a paper and found it was a book chapter. I changed the type to Book Section and then ad…
-
As it turned out, I found the Book Section as a standalone item before I found that it was a chapter from a book, so I added the Book item afterward. This is not unusual in my research, btw.
-
I meant in the Book Section item, I need to manually complete the fields embedded in the Book item for a full bibliography of the Book Section item.
-
So I have to complete the fields for the Book Section to create a fully detailed bibliography item?
-
In this case, I found a paper that turned out to be a chapter of a book. I added the Book, then I changed the paper type to Book Section and added the book title in that record. From the Book item, I added the Book Section as related. It seems to m…
-
The Zotero Connector button appeared in my browser toolbar overnight. This really happened.
-
Thank you. I also found the "Unlink Citations" command in my Zotero plug-in, where it's called "Remove Field Codes." I am well on my way to submitting my paper by March 15.
-
I have sets of multiple citations. I have added, changed, or deleted citations within the sets. I'm not using prefix or suffix. All I want to do is convert plain vanilla citations and bibliography from one style to another. Thanks for the tip abou…

"Don't use edit citation. Not sure what types of changes you were planning to make, but you should never edit citations when planning to use or using a numeric style." I'm confused about this. Based on prior advice here, I set my style to APA so I …
-
" Yes, but you can also just do what I said above to revert the changes. " Then NO would be the better choice, as you can update the citation again (using the Edit Citation red bar or correcting the Zotero entry) before you get confused about what …
