  • I went ahead and tried to replicate this using the Zotero trunk, which is using the new citeproc-js engine, and OpenOffice crashed on me. I'll try to get some debugging information, but since the insert multiple citations dialog doesn't allow me to…
  • In the meantime, though, I'm happy to give translator commit access to a few more of the usual contributors. We still need to push them to clients ourselves, but that's a bit easier once they're already committed. I would be willing to do some of th…
  • By the way, the new translator has been committed. Manually update translators from the Zotero preferences to get it now, otherwise it will be automatically installed within 24 hours. Please continue to post errors that arise, but right now it look…

  • @estes: It seems that there is something odd going on with your setup, since that citation works for me and for others in private and shared libraries. Update your translators in the Zotero preferences and try again. If items still don't save correc…
  • Please provide some sample URLs that don't work for you.
  • I still don't see an "undefined" in the title selection window, and those all import into Zotero, even if I mangle them. Yes, there are cases where Freecite can't parse a citation, but it looks to me like Zotero is doing all it can at this point.
  • This should be easy to fix, but my attempts have so far been in vain. JTS uses a slightly different page layout, and I haven't yet been able to get Zotero to scrape it correctly. I'd welcome a fresh pair of eyes, if someone else wants to try craftin…
  • Can I take the silence to mean that this patch is working for everyone? If so, I'll ask to have it pushed to all users.
  • Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/CrossRef.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data). This should fix things for the Cochrane DOIs -- there…
  • I'm not sure whether the the suggestion form will help -- I've never worked significantly with a project where I found it useful. That said, I'm not a typical user. As I believe I've said before, I think a more productive shift would be to have mor…
  • Yes, you need to replace the old file with the new one. You will then need to restart Firefox for it to work on search pages, but it should start working on PubMed article pages immediately.
  • Save page as should do the trick.
  • Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/NCBI PubMed.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data). It should start working again. If this works for …
  • I'll see what I can do. No promises, but I'll try to finish this in the next 24-48 hours.
  • No need to reinstall Zotero. I'll work on this and see if I can get it to work.
  • It works for me, so this is likely a proxy issue. Can you submit an error report and debug output for an attempt to save from Emerald? Since I can't replicate the error, we'll need debugging info from your end. Post the Error and Debug IDs here.
  • Have you had a chance to look at the style? I think it should work for you, but I would like to confirm that it matches your needs, so I can submit it to the repository.
  • Yes -- I had looked into making a translator for the Innovative Encore system, but I ran into some issues with the format of the records I could fetch... Since it seems that all such libraries have a "classic" catalog as well, I recommend using that…
  • The second issue doesn't make any sense to me. This translator has nothing to do with Google Scholar. I'll take a look at the first issue-- can you provide a few examples of broken citations to test on?
  • You will have to restart Firefox after installing the new version.
  • Please go to http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/AMS Online Journals - Allenpress.js and save the file to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory (http://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data). I haven't really tested it, b…
  • Can you provide the URL that you were accessing? That way other users can try to access it and see if it's specific to your setup.
  • The updated version should now work for you. Download and install again from the URL above.
  • The sign-in screen won't show because Zotero is accessing Google Scholar in a hidden browser. I don't know much about the proxy support in Zotero, but it may be possible for Zotero to log you in to the proxy automatically, so that Retrieve Metadata…
  • You need to upgrade to a newer version of Firefox and Zotero. Zotero 1.0 translators are not supported-- you'll find that many of them are broken. Upgrade to Firefox 3.6.3 (the current release) and Zotero 2.0.3 (the current release), and many, many…
  • I'll work on this-- I can't patch it now, but perhaps tomorrow I'll post a new version. One issue is that I'm trying to make a general translator for ContextObjects in XML format, so I didn't want to litter it with FreeCite-specific hacks. That said…
  • I'll look at it. This is a translator that I've patched more than once, without addressing some of its deeper structural issues. Expect an updated translator tomorrow.
  • Save http://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/master/journal-of-cerebral-blood-flow-and-metabolism.csl to a file and drag it to a Firefox window, and things should start working as you expect them to.
  • Do you get that even when you are not using your university proxy? I don't think I have Scopus access and I don't use a proxy, so I can't troubleshoot this very well, but my suspicion is that this is caused by an odd interaction with the proxy. @D…
