Okay. Next comment: I had Firefox open, so I got the following warning when I started the upgrade to 5.0: http://i.imgur.com/a1WBdOr.png The label "Check for Update" is a bit odd. "Retry" would be more logical.

@dstillman, I just did the "Check for Updates..." in Zotero Standalone 4.0.29.15, and while I'm offered 5.0.6, clicking the hyperlinked "View more information about this update" in the first screen doesn't do anything for me. macOS 10.12.6. P.S. Do…

Okay, thanks. This was on Windows 7. I'll keep an eye out for any other cases.

@mragab73, we ask people to provide formatted references for the exact two items described at https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/wiki/Requesting-Styles#requesting-a-new-style, an article by Campbell & Pedersen and a chapter by Mar…

That's a feature, not a bug. Some citation guides require that names that are repeated in subsequent references in the bibliography are replaced by hyphens. See http://docs.citationstyles.org/en/stable/specification.html#reference-grouping for some …

We're going to try to push out another build of Zotero 4.0 for Firefox A little off-topic, but are there any known issues with auto-updating of Zotero for Firefox in 4.0.x? I recently helped two of my colleagues and discovered they were still on ca.…

using the Firefox-embedded version is just not an option going forward. It will stop working some time this year (probably mid-November) as Firefox disables the extension framework it relies on. Users of the Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) 52…

@dstillman, would it be easy (and desirable) to offer Zotero 5.0 to users of Zotero Standalone 4.0 who manually check for updates via "Check for Updates..."?

Did you test the complete file with a JSON validator such as https://jsonlint.com/?

(the "Store references in document" checkbox in the Zotero document preferences was removed in Zotero 5.0, but this only affects the embedding of item metadata into the word processor documents, which is now always enabled; see https://github.com/zo…

(I think that the field order in the right-hand pane could be improved a bit to put more stress on what generally are the important fields for citations; the inconsistent naming of "Publication" and "Journal Abbr" is also confusing. But regarding th…

It might depend on your version of Office and your operating system, but in the past, I've been able to install VBA by modifying the existing installation of Office, without the need to run the original installer. In my case, Office 2010 on Windows …

@dstillman, coming back to this after reading https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/276648/#Comment_276648, there must be a lot of Zotero for Firefox users who will be switching to Zotero Standalone when 5.0 is released, and there might be qu…

(if you don't mind losing any (custom) citation styles you have installed, you can try resetting your styles via the Zotero preferences; see https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/advanced#the_files_and_folders_tab)

Which versions of Zotero and Word are you using?
-
what options do I have to/how do I import references from the field codes directly from my article? If you have .docx Word files, you can use http://rintze.zelle.me/ref-extractor/.
-
Ah, okay, missed that.
-
(using HTML-style tags for markup is really only recommended for marking up parts of a field, such as species names; italicizing whole fields should happen in the CSL style)
-
(@adomasven, perhaps it would make sense for Zotero to pop up the Document Preferences window if a user presses the refresh button in an uninitialized Word document? Seems like that would take care of this issue)
-
@nohxtk1, and just to double-check, did the editors of the handbook sent you that Word document, or is it accessible via the internet somewhere? We always try to include a link in the style that points to where the style guide can be found. (the st…

(in general, the most useful tags seems to be "blockquote", "code", and, for formatting references, "i" and "b")
-
You can tag people with @, e.g. @LiborA. Couldn't find any official documentation from the Vanilla Forums software on which tags are supported.
-
http://rintze.zelle.me/ref-extractor/ allows you to extract all cited items from your .docx Word document, and, if you select the appropriate checkbox before starting the extraction, will store the cite count in the "Extra" field of each item.
-
@fschelack, any progress on getting back better search (e.g. through https://open.vanillaforums.com/addon/sphinxsearch-plugin), as you suggested at https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/261826/#Comment_261826?

Does this extend to all actions? (insert citation, edit citation, insert bibliography, edit bibliography, refresh, change citation style, etc.)
-
https://www.zotero.org/styles loads fine for me right now.
-
@bwiernik, thanks. Will take a look at Zutilo.
-
One way both of these things could be implemented is allowing for customization of the action Zotero takes when left-clicking the connector button in the browser. E.g. Zotero could add a submenu to select the desired action, and show the selected ac…
-
Also, somewhat related, I would love it if Zotero made it easier to quickly get a fully formatted reference for a given webpage, for when I want to share an article with somebody. Currently, I would need to save the item to my library from the brow…

(you first have to click the "Raw" button and then download the style file; alternatively, download straight from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/damnation333/styles/patch-29/the-american-journal-of-surgery.csl)
