The message appears when a citation has been edited directly in the document, rather than through the Zotero "Add/Edit Citation" dialog. Clicking "No" will revert the citation to the automatically generated form, losing any changes made through the …

You should be able to do that, yes. Or move the document to Google Docs, again with live citations intact. Edit: (Oops, missed that. As Dan says below.)
-
I think that's the latest, yes. You may find that with this version you no longer need to set the main title as subtitle to get it to do the capitalization.
-
Are you using the en-GB locale? That has "para." as the singular and "paras" as the plural set as default. I don't know if that's right, others may be able to advise.
-
Which style are you using?
-
Have you tried selecting the APA style? It is an in-text style and definitely will not automatically create a footnote when you insert a citation. If it does, there is a problem on your system that will need troubleshooting.
-
I think in the end there would need to be some sort of support for these two-element entries in the UI, and in the Zotero database schema. Could maybe be done with a directional relation, when that becomes possible. Data could then be shipped to the…
-
The cs:alternative element is independent of multilingual field variants and multi-locale layouts, although it is compatible with the latter. (Support for the former will be possible if I move on a revised Jurism sync encoding scheme that's on the d…
-
An attraction of this approach is that it reuses existing style code, so reprint/translation forms can be added to an existing style without extra styling work and its associated maintenance burden. Also (not mentioned in the docs ATM), the type of …
-
CSL-M addresses this with a schema for supplementary fields and a pair of elements used to rerun the layout for the secondary item and join it to the main reference. Documentation on the elements etc is here. Edit: Jonathan Lewis has provided a tut…

Sorry, will stick a tag on it soonish. (The builds aren't fully automated, partly out of sloth, but mostly because the process is complex and sometimes fails for timeouts part-way through.)
-
Got it, thanks. Export/import is going to be eye-opening useful when it comes out. We'll recommend to our people that they upgrade their Mac Word installs.
-
Sorry, I should have given more details. On one system, attempts to insert a citation immediately triggered a "Do you want to replace this Zotero field?" pop-up. If "Yes" was selected, we next got the "Problem updating your document" pop-up after s…
-
It would be good to get RTL fixed. Can you provide the following information? * The correct form of this citation in the English locale; * The correct bibliography entry for this source in the English locale; * The correct form of this citation in …
-
Indirect experience here, but Jurism with the most recent Zotero beta additions to integration.js and the Word for Mac integration plugin failed on two student machines with older software (WfM ver 14.xx), although it worked fine on my own installat…

Jurism 5.0.66m58 just went up. If you have a recent version installed, it should update automatically within 24 hours, or you can update immediately with Help -> Check for updates. The new release should handle UN resolutions correctly (either i…
-
I'm not sure how the CSL mappings work, but there is only one value, and if both publisher-place and event-place are valid for an item type, it will be set on both in CSL JSON. I see what you mean about relying on the Extra field. It sounds like yo…
-
@bwiernik: The problem is that the Zotero database currently has only a single database column for "place." Addressing the issue in Zotero will require a schema revision. The Extra field key:val inputs are normally overridden by content in the corr…
-
(The fresh release will be out tomorrow, Monday, Japan time)
-
Working on it now. An update to Jurism is in the queue, and support for UN resolutions will be included in it. When it's out, I'll post a link here to a library that contains a sample, so you can see how the data should be entered.
-
@liam.mchugh.russell: There have been changes to singular/plural handling since these posts. I think this has been resolved - if that's not right, feel free to ping back.
-
Now available for testing via the Propachi plugin.
-
So if I understand correctly, the initial suggestion is to: * Parse & as at present, but localizing if possible and falling back to &; and * Recognize "and" in its en and non-en-locale forms, with or without comma, but to print the joining t…
-
Perhaps relevant to the choice posed above, the "symbol" form of "and" is currently defined in zero (0) standard CSL locales, and in zero (0) repository styles. So at present, at least, the risk of conflicting expectations over the value of this ter…
-
Reading the thread more carefully, I see there are two ways to go about this: Simple, but a hack: parse only &, but replace in output with the symbol form of "and" in the current locale if available, otherwise "&"; orFlexible, but less porta…
-
Thanks for the nudge. This is an easy one to test and fix, I was just pulled away by other tasks. Will post when a Propachi update is out later today.
-
Thanks, Brenton. No need for this item. I have a copy at work if I get stuck and need the inside skinny.
-
I think I have an answer. The quality of guidance on citing international materials is pretty spotty out there. OSCOLA 2006 just lists citation samples, without any information on citation elements or specifics on the materials cited. For more detai…

Let's work on first-reference cite forms first. So a cite to a Security Council resolution should look like this (without the year in parens at the end): UNSC Res 2417 (24 May 2018) UN Doc S/RES/2417 My question is about the roman numerals in the fo…
-
Great, thanks. Can you explain the semantics of these two examples? The first looks to be to the General Assembly Official Records. Is the latter form used in writing for publication, and if so how would you go about retrieving the text? UNGA Res 26…
