@army-jag341 - just to be clear, you can just add 'Type: treaty' to the extra field, and you can use the existing OSCOLA/APA styles now to update the citation. You don't have to wait for Zotero to implement 'treaty'. And @inh3 - you can exclude spec…
-
I suspect you might need to change your citation style in Word - any of the standard legal citation styles, such as OSCOLA if you are in the UK, should work fine with Statute and Bill. English and Welsh law citations are usually just title, year and…
-
I'm not clear if this is what you are after, but you can 'relate' your note to both references - just go to the 'Related' field at the bottom of your note and search the field (or if it is a child note in one of the references, you can just relate i…

I can report that on the latest version of Firefox, the right-click to save to Zotero either as a webpage with or without snapshot is still working for me (as is merging with and without snapshot). Another option is to install the SingleFile extensi…

Rather than changing your style, you can always just modify your existing style to include the URL (or really, anything else you need to customise). Just upload your existing style to the Visual CSL Editor (https://editor.citationstyles.org/visualEd…
-
That is an unusual style request! One option I can think of is to modify the style so that you create an HTML version of a hyperlink (so your output would be [Webpagetitle]. You can use the VIsual CSL editor to do this easily enough (I have created …

Just to be completely clear @GreenDocs - you can already collectively edit and make notes on a PDF in a group library (as indicated in the reply), just that right now you can't do them in a group library at the same time. So one person can open, edi…
-
I'm a little confused by your message, but it sounds like you just need to add a single footnote in the main text, and then just add multiple citations - if you're using the default Zotero Word plugin, you just search for each reference and enter ea…
-
Ah thanks - that makes sense!
-
The good news is it is very unlikely you have lost five years of work - Zotero data is much harder to delete than this! My guess is that you have misunderstood how to join a Zotero library. If you were 'invited' to a group, what you do after downlo…

Re how to fix it - you can add sorting to your citations easily. Go to the Visual CSL Editor https://editor.citationstyles.org/visualEditor/, upload your style file. Then in the In-line Citations section on the left hand side, you can add your prefe…
-
It looks to me like it is sorting numbers after the decimal as if they are normal numbers. So in your first example, 13 is a larger number than 7. In the second example, it is sorting so that one-digit decimals go first, then two-digits etc. So 092 …

I do the same as bwiernik suggests - I use Zutilo to paste items in our group library into conversations. I paste SharePoint links into Zotero for some files that need to stay in that system. I’m not sure what further integration you are suggesting?
-
My tips are: 1. Add “ before your search term to speed up entry (this will stop it from beginning searching as soon as you type) 2. I still use the classic citation view, in which you can select a collection or library and just search that (or selec…
-
I just use a standalone note for that and put in the collection with the title About this collection,
-
Just to note @andersculturalstudies you can create a timeline from a folder - just select the folder then create the timeline.
-
I use @ventural’s approach - I have group libraries on whatever I need to collaborate on, then add/remove people as I go. I don’t have a lot in my personal library as I tend to move everything out to group libraries (rather than duplicate).

I think the effect you want to achieve can be done more simply in another way. I've used a Word template that had the same size footnote reference as the footnote text (not in the body of the text, the footnote reference marker for that was superscr…

There might be something here too: https://www.zotero.org/support/third_party_documentation

For quick fixes like this, if you're not familiar with CSL styles, I find the Visual CSL Editor very handy: https://editor.citationstyles.org/visualEditor/ - you just upload the style, use the examples to identify where the code is, fix it and save …
-
I suspect there are good reasons why there isn't a simple 'Find/Replace' option - but you should be able to use the search to find the character (depending on what you do, you could use 'All fields and tags' to find the character in the quick search…
-
You can do 1. by using Reference Extractor: https://rintze.zelle.me/ref-extractor/ (see the 'Store cites' option and export it into a new collection, say 'Cited'). While I haven't done this myself, I expect you could get to 2. by: creating an adva…
-
I agree @lexikeeton that it is easier to 'see' the library - for that reason I still use the Classic Add Citation Dialog (which you can set as the default using Preferences under Cite/Word Processors tab). I also highly recommend the Reference Extra…
-
I just tried and it looks like the timeline displays for whichever collection you have selected. So if you want a timeline based on the articles of one author, you could either copy all the author items into a collection, or create an 'advanced sear…
-
There is a simple solution: use the excellent Reference Extractor here: https://rintze.zelle.me/ref-extractor/. You just upload your document and it can either select your cited items or you can export the whole lot into another collection (clear in…
-
That's good news about this being put back on the list. I posted on this thread many years ago (like others, having come over from Endnote) but have learnt to adapt and now find it's mostly trivial. However, having recently worked on a project with …
-
I'm not sure which version you are using, but on my Mac you add tags (and comments) by clicking the top left button icon which looks like coloured lines (depending on the highlight color you have chosen).
-
Yes, Zotero isn't set up for the very complex structures of citation of international legal materials! If you are working in international law, there is a project called JurisM which builds on Zotero for those working in legal fields (esp internatio…
-
I have been using Zotfile for years and the new PDF reader beta, so have some thoughts: - the new PDF reader will be the smoothest workflow in the end - you'll open within Zotero, read and annotate, and it'll save back. - However, at present, ther…
