How much of a software bounty would we have to get together to inspire some intrepid person to update the extension? I imagine there are a number of people in the Zotero community who would be happy to chip in!
-
Perhaps it might be possible to identify one very broad description that is distinct from reprints, and then distinguish between fields in 'extra'. 'Original-date' could still default to 'Reprint' but one could instead specify 'Authorship-date', whi…
-
Not all original dates describe works that are reprints. For instance, the following work contains a lecture given in 1914 that was only published in a collection in 1934: A. Lawrence Lowell, “The Selective Function of Education” (1914) in At War w…

Love ODF scan — it's a huge life-saver for Scrivener users. One thing I've been thinking about as I approach submitting my dissertation: is there any way to speed up the time the scan takes? At present it can often take an hour or two for a scan to …

Bumping again!
-
How large a bounty do I need to offer to get this fixed in the near term? Maybe we could raise a small stipend to keep this plugin up-to-date? I'm not going to be able to turn in my dissertation without it.
-
Any word on this? Is there something I can download to make Nexis Uni compatible with Zotero? I'm using Firefox. Thanks!
-
Bumping this — would be extremely helpful!
-
Thanks! Just got this working. Greatly appreciate the help.
-
@adamsmith Ah, thanks! I use that feature so much that I assumed it must be a basic part of Zotero's functionality. I think this is the post I used in the past: https://zoteromusings.wordpress.com/2013/04/23/zotero-item-uris-from-client/ Unfortun…

I'm sorry if the answer to this is obvious, but is it still possible to create links to zotero items in 5.0? I'm not seeing "zotero select item" under the "Default Output Format" in the export settings. Thanks!
-
I've just been playing around with the 5.0 beta, which is awesome. I'm worried about fully converting to it, though, since I rely so much on RTF/ODF scan. I realize this is a hypothetical, and you guys are doing this on a volunteer basis, so I'm h…

Hi everyone, I've been using RTF/ODF a lot. It's awesome! One problem I've just run into involves abutting citations. In my document I have this: { | Elliott, 1937 | 507 | |zu:871534:9SJ9HPSZ}{ | anon. Proposed Revision of Entrance Requirements, 1…
-
A quick question, only kind of RTF/ODF related: Might there be a way to set a special keyboard shortcut to copy scannable cites? What I want to do is copy over the scannable cite to my document, and then separately copy the Item URI so I can tu…
-
Ah, cool, just thought I'd see if there were a setting hidden away somewhere.
-
Awesome, thanks! Using the final key for searches does work — that's a big help. Really appreciate your work on this.
-
I went through the document to try to localize the source of the trouble. It seems to be a citation that I had deleted from my Zotero library but that I had forgotten to change in the document. Here's what the scannable cite looks like: { | Rop…
-
Awesome, thank you! I'd strip things out myself but I don't even know what's causing the problems — I've been able to use links with the scannable cites in the past…
-
Okay, I installed JurisM and the RTF/ODF plugin. Now LibreOffice freezes when I run 'Set Document Preferences', no error message, although it does manage to change the names of all the citations to '{Citation}' before freezing. One othe…
-
Just tried with the new update and got the following error: "Zotero experienced an error updating your document. A field code in this document is corrupted." Thoughts?
-
Awesome, thanks so much guys! Will try the new version now. Can't say how much I appreciate this! Is there somewhere I can donate to the project?
-
Ah, I see — well, maybe it just can't be fixed then. Maybe I could send you my Zotero library somehow? Or give you the login?
-
Sorry, I should have been clearer: There's no single 10 page document, it's more like there are a number of separate pages throughout the document that seem to be causing the crash. I had a deadline for this a few weeks ago and so had to go thr…
-
I really love this plugin, because it allows me to use Zotero with Apple's Pages word processor. But I've run into trouble with a large document, a chapter from my dissertation. Here are a few links: Word version https://drive.google.com/open…
-
It seems you can't use "is" to search Notes, and so can't search notes for whole words only. Or am I missing something?
-
Any movement on this? I have a number of archival documents where the date is uncertain, and so I'd like Zotero to just output "1940?", but it always strips out the question mark. Is there a way to force Zotero to just print the plain text, and not …
-
Huh, that's a little better. At some point maybe we should put together a kind of 'Zotero basics for historians' document...
-
Did we ever figure out a way to make subsequent citations to a collection use an abbreviated form? For example, I want the first citation to read: H. G. Merriam to Dorothy O. Johansen, May 25, 1959, H.G. Merriam Collection, Series II, Box 4, Fo…
-
Thanks Dan and Adam. I hadn't realized I wasn't getting the standard Zotero behavior. It turns out what I was getting was due to a setting in the keyboard panel on the Mac control panel. I had "Full Keyboard Access" set to "Text boxes and lists only…
-
Thanks, Dan and Adam. I am using Zotero 4.0.9 on OS X Lion and the behavior I get seems to be a little different. Using just the tab key, I scan switch focus between: the library, the tag selector, the middle pane, and the search field. But that see…
