If you just need one-time export, an export translator can do this more flexibility than CSL and less complexity than a local server, with the one major drawback of not being able to call the CSL processor to format the bibliography entries (althoug…

Odd. When I save the same item, it works fine; using the address http://web.ebscohost.com/ehost/detail?vid=3&hid=15&sid=00dded6a-950c-4da6-938f-48c848fbb9d7@sessionmgr10&bdata=JnNpdGU9ZWhvc3QtbGl2ZQ==#db=a9h&AN=23689466#db=a9h&AN…

This is the correct way to show that the author is the same as the author of the previous item in the bibliography. If you need a modified version of the Chicago style for your work, then there are some small changes that you can make to fit your pr…

Do you have third-party cookies enabled in your Firefox preferences? This, I think, is one of the behaviors that can arise from it not being enabled.
-
I've posted on your behalf to zotero-dev. Sorry about things getting lost in the shuffle. I hope this one makes it through to clients this time.
-
Can you please provide a permalink for an item that is incorrectly captured? The article at http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=47088871&site=ehost-live is captured correctly for me.

Rintze's and my comments should be read together-- you can set your clock backwards to the desired date, then duplicate the items. Dan's choice is more robust, but it's also somewhat more difficult and risky.
-
Well, you can count me as one more person using a 1024x600 screen. In some of the tabs of the preferences window, the bottom options are slightly truncated, even with the preferences window maximized. Even so, I can get to all the options I ever use…

I've asked that it be pushed to clients. In the meantime, people can continue to update the translator from the address above manually.
-
And in order to set the date backwards, you can adjust the computer's time accordingly.
-
It works! Now I see why people were complaining so much that Scaffold didn't work-- it certainly makes things nicer.
-
Just to confirm, you're saying that the updated translator works all the time now? In the most recent update, I fixed an issue where, if there was only one hit for a search result (as for a PMID, which will have only one hit by its nature), then th…

Well, you at least don't need to sync your files for group libraries to work. You do need to sync your data. My sense is that there's a good reason architecturally why group library members need to have their personal libraries synced -- but I don't…

The issue with case transformations for Turkish (and some other Turkic languages in their Latin variants), is an open bug in Firefox (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=231162). The sorting is a tough one-- the sorting rules for Cyrillic-…

I've uploaded an updated translator that works for the single result case that you mention. Thanks for the reporting it. You can download the translator from http://groups.google.com/group/zotero-dev/web/NCBI PubMed.js, and install as described abov…

Does the article at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9566477 save for you? It still works for me. There's a real chance that my fix does not work for all PubMed pages, in which case I'll look into a more general solution. Another possibility is t…

janphil: Have you tried various URLs and it doesn't work for any of them? Are you using Zotero 2.0?
-
Perhaps the people who wrote the CNKI and Douban translators are still around? Could they be convinced to try again, perhaps asking for help here on the forums? This isn't really that hard to do in most cases, but the person writing a translator re…
-
The updated translator at http://groups.google.com/group/zotero-dev/web/NCBI PubMed.js should now work. This or a similar version will likely hit clients some time soon. In the meantime, you can place the file in the translators folder of your Zoter…
-
Is anyone currently working on a fix for this? I could look into fixing it, but I don't want to be duplicating someone else's work.
-
I've posted an updated translator to the zotero-dev list. When it hits clients, things should start working again.
-
My understanding is that Zotero's interface should be in Chinese already, so long as you are using a Chinese version of Firefox. As for support for citation styles and bibliographic databases in wide use in China, that's something that to some degr…
-
But is there a reason that the various item operations can't be done without creating a saved search?
-
Except that when they're disabled, there really shouldn't be conflicts... I would certainly remove and reinstall Zotero, because this behavior sounds quite odd and no obvious causes come to mind.
-
You should post the translator to the files section of the zotero-dev group and post a message there. The translator will then be reviewed and added to Zotero.
-
Zotero doesn't work on 64 bit Firefox? If it won't install, try doing a force install using the Nightly Tester Tools extension.
-
Having never used Scaffold, I have only worked in the manner that Frank describes, and it works decently well. That said, Scaffold looks like a great idea, and I wonder if some of us in the interested, relatively code-savvy Zotero community couldn't…
-
First, have you checked if your new items have appeared in your library online? If so, you can close Firefox and go home. In general, sync times should be quite short these days, so you should restart Firefox if it seems to get stuck at "Upload acce…

This sounds like a nice potential improvement to the BibTex translator-- the code is at https://www.zotero.org/trac/browser/extension/trunk/translators/BibTeX.js , and such a patch would, as you say, probably be not overly complicated. If you have s…
