Use the Zotero Connector to add items from EBSCO in your browser. Zotero has lots of built-in cleanup logic for metadata from publishers/databases like EBSCO, but you can only take advantage of it if you add items using the Connector's Save to Zoter…

Fixed, thanks. Your Zotero Connector should auto-update within a few minutes, or you can update translators manually from the Advanced pane of the Zotero settings.

Could not remove the file at C:\Users\[...]\AppData\Local\Temp\Zotero\ABC News Australia.js There is some kind of problem with file permissions. Are you running any nonstandard security software on this machine? Any enterprise restrictions? You cou…

If the data is correct (no extra letters) in Zotero desktop and the Zotero web library, this is most likely an issue with Zotpress. You'll need to get in touch with its developer.
-
OK, what are the steps you performed to generate citations in Zotero and add them to this webpage?
-
(And see if it makes any difference if you connect some other way - for instance, if you normally connect via a VPN, try campus WiFi or a library proxy.)
-
It looks like EBSCO is taking a very long time (>15 seconds) to respond to some of the requests Zotero is making for citation information. It's possible that this is a temporary issue on EBSCO's end that will resolve itself soon. If you find a sp…

Is that screenshot from a PDF? If so, how did you create the PDF, and what are you viewing it in?

Change the Publication field to portal: Libraries and the Academy

@berilsarisakal, @elichten, @dunning: We've just pushed a fix for the underlying issue that caused items saved from the Connector to get a "Number:" entry in Extra. Items saved in the future won't have this problem. Your Zotero Connector should auto…

(And you can always see this in the right pane after selecting a library/collection/search: "[count] items in this view". No built-in way to see counts for all collections at once, though.)

That paper's DOI metadata includes the institution as one of its creators. I don't think we'd want to filter those out, since there are plenty of cases where a paper actually does have an institutional creator. Saving using the Connector from the p…

Thanks, we're working on a fix for this.

The database improvement that will allow us to implement this wasn't available for those past five years, but it will be in Zotero 8. We aren't able to provide estimates of when features will be available, but sometimes we just have to wait for some…

This is planned but technically difficult.
-
The "Right to Left" option in the note editor context menu would've done that.

(I don't believe we support MIT Press Direct, but we will soon. mitpress.mit.edu URLs will work now, though.)
-
Thanks! Fixed. Your Zotero Connector should auto-update within a few minutes, or you can update translators manually from the Advanced pane of the Zotero settings.
-
First update to Zotero 7 and see if the problem still occurs. If it does, could you send the file to support@zotero.org along with a link to this thread?
-
Thanks, I can reproduce this. We'll fix. For now, if you want to save web links, open Zotero Settings, and enable "Automatically take snapshots when creating items from web pages" under General -> File Handling.
-
Yeah, actually, it is possible that this is Zotero itself checking for updates at the URL that a plugin provided. I'm not positive, but that may occasionally happen even if the plugin is disabled. You could try going into your Zotero profile direct…
-
A Zotero plugin you installed is connecting to that domain, probably to check for updates.
-
Thanks, we're working on a fix.

@magcanady: Fixed. Thanks for reporting this issue! Your Zotero Connector should auto-update within a few minutes, or you can update translators manually from the Advanced pane of the Zotero settings.
-
It seems like there's currently an issue with saving from the PDF tab on ProQuest. We'll fix. As a workaround for now, click the "Abstract/Details" tab before saving. You should get a complete item with a PDF.
-
External tools should never modify Zotero's database directly. Zotero supports plugins and a read-write web API for use cases like this. There's no practical way to verify that the modifications that that program is making to your database won't lea…

Try restarting Chrome if you haven't already. If that doesn't fix it, remove and reinstall the Zotero Connector from the Chrome Web Store. Let me know if the problem still occurs after that.
-
Sorry, never mind, I missed the Report ID in the title.
-
We'll need a Connector Debug ID for a save attempt.

Yes, in Zotero settings -> General -> Open snapshots using.
