For information on read-access to Zotero data via Zotero.org, see the discussion at http://groups.google.com/group/zotero-dev/browse_thread/thread/44abcdd1ac921593/965322f7f2bc6537 . The interface for fetching data from Zotero.org is not wholly doc…

I agree here. This is presumably a small oversight.

It does seem to be the case that the sync indicator can occasionally be wrong. Syncs of that size should not take that long (>30 minutes), even at peak times of day. Try restarting Firefox; that shouldn't slow down the sync, and will clear an err…

MLA seems to allow either approach (http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/09/), depending on the author's intent. My Chicago manual tells me that "Movies" should have the title first if they were watched in a theatre. Otherwise, they shoul…

Well, you should look around for Sqlite browsers that can create such a diagram, and use them to look at your Zotero database; you might try the advice at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/989112/ . I highly doubt that the Zotero team has made suc…

This was due to a very small change in the Informaworld navigation bar. Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/Informaworld.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org…

The file storage system stores data in many compressed files with inscrutable names-- you wouldn't find it convenient for mobile access. A much better option would be any of many systems for syncing arbitrary files to phones/mobile devices, so you …

As far as I know, the proposed solution of adding a "reviewed title" field to articles has been neither accepted nor rejected. In the meantime, I've been just making Journal Articles and titling reviews as "Review of TITLE", using the Reviewed Auth…

This was due to a very small change in the search results page format. Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/Google Scholar.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org…

there might be some concern about this not being open-source. On the up-side: It does work with TinyMCE (the app that Zotero uses for notes) out of the box: http://www.afterthedeadline.com/download.slp?platform=TinyMCE It does appear to be open sour…
-
It would be nice if this could be done more elegantly, without making a second translator. That said, this should be a perfectly workable stop-gap solution. If you do make changes to allow for export translators to have a citation mode, can you als…
-
This is now complete. http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/blob/master/BibTex Citation Key.js Click on the "raw" link and place the file in the translators directory of your Zotero Data Directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data). You ca…

Quick copy mode can use export formats. This is a simple job, and I've almost finished writing an export translator to use with quick copy mode.
-
You have indeed happened upon a confusing aspect of Zotero -- I generally don't make reading notes in the notes field of attachments. I use that field very rarely, but when I do, I try to use it to provide additional information on the provenance of…
-
That's an interesting feature, and it isn't currently available. It should be possible to implement this as an export translator -- I have one that I use to create links to Zotero items, posted at http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/blob/master/zot…

Would probably be best in the future to disable features that can cause data loss until they are fixed or put a big warning dialog into the software explaining what might happen. Note that the RDF export is not designed for backup or transport to ot…
-
Yes, this is what people have been talking about. Zotero doesn't yet flag duplicates or merge them, but it's a planned feature.
-
The basic requirements for running Zotero stand-alone have been met, as I understand it. If you are willing to commit some funds and developer time, I imagine that the Zotero project team would be glad for the help. Getting stand-alone Zotero workin…
-
Thanks! This is great news -- I look forward to working more effectively with your resources.
-
I was going to fix this, but since the translator just calls the RIS translator, it's not quite trivial, although still quite doable. I don't really want to make such a change in the RIS translator, so a patch would have to walk through the captured…
-
If you look at the BibTex.js translator in the translators directory of your Zotero data directory, you can change the substitutions used in creating citation keys. This is not easily changed without modifying the translator manually since it common…

Do both passwords work for the Zotero.org website as well? Do they only differ in their last characters (i.e., "secretpassword1", "secretpassword1morelonger")? [Edit: Lest someone look at this discussion and think that the latter case is an issue, …

Well, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Zotero's zipping of stored files cut my storage needs from 1.5 GB to a tidy 900 MB, although I've been careful to avoid particularly large files like audio and video in my libraries. MyDrive.ch does hav…
-
I can report that MyDrive.ch is working fine for me, and many other Zotero users have been happy with it as well. There's a thread somewhere explaining how to set it up-- take a look.
-
Thanks for posting this. I'll play with my setup and see if I can get something working using this under Linux.
-
:) Well, it happens. Maybe you could look into making a style for the journal Anesthesiology? Take a look at the http://www.zotero.org/support/requesting_styles page, identify a close match from the style repository, and maybe we can help you make a…
-
It sounds rather like you are using a document in which someone has "removed field codes". What you're describing sounds like the citations already in the document are no longer being managed by Zotero. That can happen if you saved in a different fo…
-
It doesn't appear that this has very complex requirements for references-- it is likely already covered by an existing style. Looking at http://journals.lww.com/anesthesiology/Pages/CompleteInstructionsForAuthorsOld.aspx#references, I imagine that s…
-
It seems I shouldn't have capitalized "Anesthesiology" in my post. No, I don't see a style for a journal named "Anesthesiology" in the repository either. If there was such a style in the repository before, it should still be there. I'll search the f…
