I don't think that this can be done currently -- the upcoming 1.0 version of CSL can do sectioned bibliographies, but it may take some time before Zotero supports defining which sources go in which section. Since you don't need them to be separatel…
-
I did assume that, but that's not necessarily a good assumption, and it turns out that both versions occur on Oxford pages. This is why I wish authors put test URLs as comments in their translators! I've patched this, though -- the new version is a…

Would it be feasible to build a plugin to represents that knowledge in the form of a social network graph? This would be make a great plugin, but it's unlikely to be done by the folks at Zotero central, since they have their plates full with core fu…
-
which Zotero version do you have? I think 2.0.3 shouldn't show the CVE vulnerabilities in the error reports anymore. Actually, I'm still getting them too. I think that Dan was going to blacklist them in error reports, but that might still be just in…

This was due to a very small change in the Oxford/Highwire citation toolbar. Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/Highwire 2.0.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zoter…

Well, it's a shorthand that many people have learned to use, and there's nothing certainly wrong with it. You can always hover over the date to see the exact date that was recognized.
-
Is this addressed by the BibTex patch that is currently under consideration? It sure sounds like the same issue.
-
I have stopped using "Rename file" for approximately that reason -- too often the renamed file would have a problematic filename.
-
This might be related to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411511 . That bug pops up when calling external programs (like the file browser or a PDF reader), under certain combinations of Firefox and system locale settings. It should be …

I think that selective downloading has been discussed; I think the word on the street is that it will probably happen, but it's not around the corner. One issue that makes selective downloading important is that large group libraries are an untena…
-
You don't need to buy anything. Take a look at the video tutorials http://www.zotero.org/support/screencast_tutorials . To open your Zotero library, you'll need to click on the "Zotero" icon at the bottom-right corner of your Firefox window. Watch …

(go to the Add-ins tab and choose Add CItation) I don't know the new version of Word very well, but you can probably grab the Zotero buttons and tear them off the ribbon into a floating toolbar, so you don't have to go to a special ribbon each time.…
-
Can you isolate a particular citation that is causing this? Try removing citations until the bibliography will insert without errors. My guess is that some very odd character is getting mangled somehow-- if we can narrow things down and figure out …
-
ajlyon: I haven't looked into it, but maybe an issue of the newline used after "GFF"? Just a guess. I still haven't managed to figure out the root cause here, but I am able to use "Download Citation" to get the article to import correctly, for both …
-
Can you provide the actual links that you are trying to open? I'm having trouble following your explanation here.
-
Well, there's a list of translator requests several hundred items long. Unfortunately, site translators are non-trivial to write and take some care to maintain, so they are usually written by users who use the various sites. Sometimes you can find …
-
That item is a full journal issue; Zotero doesn't have a good way of modeling issues of journals (or volumes, or entire journals), so translators don't try to save them. The discussion above is about a small bug that prevents some (one, so far) ite…
-
The Chronicle translator was pushed and it should start working for you within 24 hours (you can update translators in the Zotero preferences rather than waiting). Please start a new thread for the NYT issue and give a sample URL that doesn't work.…
-
Are you sure that these are PDFs that you added via "Add stored copy of file..."? If you had used "Attach link to file...", then Zotero wouldn't try to sync the linked file. To fix it, re-add the files using "Add stored copy of file..." (or "Show fi…
-
In that case, I won't try to fix it yet. When that change happens, post here so that we can look into fixing PDF saving.
-
Thanks for the detailed explanation of what still needs to be done. I am mainly concerned that the current set of processes don't lend themselves to good developer feedback and encouraging new contributors. Problems are discussed here, which lead t…

And now it will prompt to select which of multiple citations to import. This is now complete, both as a site translator (for Freecite) and for importing files in this format.
-
Please review and push this translator. See https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/1079 as well.
-
This is one of the many cases where Zotero developers have been less than prompt in integrating patches. [Off-topic, but important: As I've mentioned before on zotero-dev, translator review should be done in a more transparent way that encourages …
-
The issue is not that there are too many citations, but rather that one of them is being parsed incorrectly; the system can't figure out a type for it. You'll notice that one of the ContextObjects on the page is of type "info:ofi/fmt:xml:xsd:unknown…
-
In my quick testing, it will copy at least 12 without a problem, so I'm not sure what's causing the issue you're seeing. There should be no limit on how many citations it will process.
-
Are you sure that these can't be treated as Book entries? Depending on the sort of data, Report might also work. The name of the data type isn't that important-- consider how you would like to cite such items, and find an item type that will allow …
-
It's a Freecite parsing issue; if you look at the ContextObject code for the first one, you'll see: Psychological Review The stitle means "short title". Nothing we can do here. Just make sure you mark it as imperfect parsing, so their algorithm can …
-
It would be nice to add RDFa support as a first step. As for the rest of this, I have already floated multiple times the idea of unifying translators, so that all embedded data translators combined their results into a single list of importable res…
-
I've addressed the comment, but I can't replicate the problem. Can you provide an example input? My solution to the Comment is imperfect; it doesn't prompt you to select which entries to import when you click on the folder icon, but it's a start. D…
