If you install the Zotero Item History plugin, you can open the item, navigate to its relations, and then select the items (and save them to a collection). It's a workaround, but may save you some time.
-
I can't speak to the keyboard issues, but ODF/RTF Scan codes work only with Open Document Format files (ODF). You can save in RTF first, but it needs to be converted to ODF format before scanning. The simplest way to do that is to use LibreOffice to…

I should fix this in the style. Can you post a sample showing the correct citation form?
-
Putting "nl" in the Language field of the Dutch items should do it. Alternatively, if the style has default-locale set to "nl", entries with an empty Language field will be treated as Dutch references for capitalization purposes.
-
@aurimas: MLZ borrows the logic of Zotero for this, but there is also a UI language selector in the preferences (in the Languages panel) that the user can use to fix things up if the environment makes an undesired choice. @ernzilver: Take a deep br…

That's actually good news, from a debugging standpoint: if you have a document that is "reliably failing," we can use it to get at the cause. It must be triggered by data that is sent to the processor from the document. By following the steps here,…

Can you predict when the failure will happen? That is, in failing documents, does every first insert attempt fail, or all inserts if a particular type of citation? Reproducibility is key for getting it fixed.
-
Rogena, To confirm, you are seeing this error? this.registry.registry[myid] is undefined If so, I'll need to reproduce the problem in order to find and fix the bug. If you notice a pattern to the failure, please post again.

You should start by going through the steps for Troubleshooting Translator Issues. If going through the steps listed there does not get you going, please post a URL of a page that isn't working, as requested in the linked page.

This should do it, if a solution based on the local Zotero client is sufficient: Zotero.userID

If I am reading the source correctly (which is not guaranteed), it might be something simple. @aurimas I've made a note in the commit.
-
That is exactly how a Zotero library or group works. Just create the subcollections (and subsubcollections etc), and drag the relevant items into place. (Edit: Ah, no, sorry, I didn't read carefully enough. You are suggesting that items added to on…
-
I suppose it would be possible, in a plugin, to add a blacklist feature for automatic tag imports. It would need to have a database to maintain the list, and some mechanism for displaying the blacklist and removing items from it -- a significant amo…

MiraNova: It is possible to use other browsers with MLZ by enabling a hidden option in Firefox. There is a description here. (With the option enabled, browsers will no longer be able to access Standalone, but if you are running only MLZ, that will …
-
This is a guess, so take it with a grain of salt, and without expectations, but it sounds as if you may somehow have two processes accessing (or apparently accessing) the database. Can you check the table of running processes to see if there are two…

Playing with the plugin again, I was initially worried that part of its functionality might no longer work. But thinking about your use case brought my memory of the design back into focus, and a bit of testing seems to show that it's still fully op…

The Zotero Item History plugin might serve your needs. I haven't worked with it for quite awhile, but it seems still to tie into Zotero's navigation within a given collection. You would clear the history, then you would need to navigate to each in a…

When accessed via that link, the site just reports that the session has expired (here, at least). If LN have crippled linking to things in their service, you might need to provide a top-level URL for the service, and then a set of hand-written instr…

Such adorable little things.
-
Aha. I guess I should look into that -- but it's great to hear that you're back on track. If you run into any other problems, just give a shout.
-
Meanwhile, I'll run a check on a Windows system later today (I normally use Linux). If this were a general Windows issue, we would probably be seeing multiple fault reports by now, but I'll check just to be sure.
-
(Just in case, before going through the steps to generate a report, you might try disabling any other plugins that you have installed, apart from MLZ and the Zotero Integration plugin for Word.)
-
I'm not able to reproduce that here, so we'll need to take a look at the debugging output. To generate a record of the error, follow the steps here, but at Step 4, revisit Preferences -> Advanced, and click View Output to show the debug log. Sele…

Yes, we don't seem to understand what the problem is. It's helpful if you can explain exactly what to do (or did), what result you expected, and what actually happened. On the seven-authors issue (which you explained in exactly that way), the answer…
-
[Y]ou are telling me, there is no way to tell Zotero that the citation being added is now going to be the first citation and that the author details need to be adjusted accordingly.As far as I can tell, you didn't ask about it before, but if citatio…

You can prepare a personal version of the style that works as you describe; but the distributed version of the style will have to stay as it is.
-
As I read the APA rules (and adamsmith's summary of them), it's supposed to do that.
-
There is no helpline; the forums are the best channel for help when you have specific problems that you can't figure out. The volunteers that provide support here don't have time to provide detailed individual instruction, but if you want CSL style…
-
Actually, it's ready. You can try out the revised processor in Zotero for Firefox with the patch plugin. The plugin can and should be disabled or removed at the next Zotero release.

Okay, it looks like we have code that covers all of these cases correctly. I need to do some cleanup to the formatting, but it will be out tomorrow.
