The setup in suggestion two is, was, and always will be free. I don't speak for the Zotero team and the Corporation for Digital Scholarship, but I don't see any reason why one time fees would be an appropriate change. I don't really trust the model…
-
See, we fixed it. :) I can still replicate issues, so I'll see if I can track this down anyway.
-
No surprise that the BibTeX doesn't import the file-- Mendeley's export appears to be broken. They shouldn't be doing entity replacement inside the "file" field! Does that import for you if you replace the $\backslash$ with an actual backslash (\)?
-
Could you try exporting a couple failing ones in BibTeX and importing that?
-
And there's our problem. I thought importing RIS with file attachments was tried-and-true for Endnote imports? Did I miss something here?

Mentioned again at http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/16617/

This is a known issue, and hopefully it'll happen in a future release (but probably not Zotero 2.1). See http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/12684/ If you have questions, please post there.

To me, the odd thing is that I can replicate the import error here, running Linux and (approximately) Zotero 2.1. There's something wrong with our translator logic, not with the file handling. [Edit: That is, with the actual path C:\blahblahblah\..]

Great work. Thanks for documenting the procedure in such detail. Devs: I agree that this would be good to add to the standard installation of Zotero. RTL/LTR isn't needed by everyone, but it's part of the standard TinyMCE installation and important…
-
Both links to and snapshots of arbitrary URLs are reasonable and fairly important additions, now that Zotero can live in a tab (and Standalone), where these options are not always available.
-
We probably need debug and error output for an instance of this happening. See if you can manage to reproduce it while logging.
-
There is still a problem here-- I don't know why Zotero isn't picking up the PDFs correctly. Those paths are correct, right?
-
Committed. Dan: Can you push this high-profile translator ASAP?
-
It should work for both. 2.1 issues are limited mainly to import/export translators.
-
I just looked into this, and it doesn't look like my institution (UCLA) has moved to the new interface at all, so I can't develop a translator for the new ProQuest. If someone can point me to a database that is certainly in the new interface, I can…
-
No problem. :) If others can confirm that this patched version is working reliably, I'll try to get this pushed to all clients ASAP.
-
Oops. Should work now.
-
Maybe. See http://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues, particularly #4. Post your Zotero and Firefox versions and a URL that doesn't work if that doesn't fix it.
-
This appears to be due to some small changes on their side. Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/EBSCOhost.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_…

@HaMi: Glad to help! I think the fix is pretty innocuous, but I'd be appreciative if some of our regular BibTeX users could try some imports before I commit this patch.
-
What version of Firefox are you using?
-
When I remove the L1 field, it imports for me.
-
Follow my instructions above to install a new version of the BibTeX import translator. It seems to fix the issue.
-
This really is odd. The underlying error is:(2)(+0000001): Translate: Translation using RIS failed: thrown exception => Invalid item type 'false' in ItemFields.getFieldIDFromTypeAndBase() url => /home/ajlyon/development/zotero/ristmp download…

Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/BibTeX.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data). It should work, but it should be tested carefully -- th…
-
I'll double check, but if that's what's happening, I'll fix it. We can safely discard any empty values; no BibTeX should be depending on such an override.
-
For a variety of reasons, including legal ones, support for Endnote styles is not actively maintained. If you'd like to get a Zotero style that supports this journal, please follow the instructions on requesting styles.
-
I think I heard about someone running Zotero inside Firefox for Mobile, and I think it worked. You have to change the install.rdf (or something like that) to mark the extension as mobile-compatible, but I think it worked. If anyone tries this, plea…

I agree with adamsmith that websites should have an institution / publisher (responsible organization) field and a place. But I still stand by my statement that the "Web Page" type, like the generic "Document" type, should be dispreferred. Many thin…

In general, see this discussion: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/15636/ I agree that reports should have an Editor creator role. Its absence is probably an oversight. As for websites, there is nothing wrong with using Report for things that ha…
