My observation was based on the output of an actual EPUB validation tool https://www.w3.org/publishing/epubcheck/ The file is not corrupted, it is poorly built.
-
Yes, probably. Items in different libraries (your own, one or many group libraries) are actually not the same, even if they describe the same actual document. Personal comment: I hope that this will change in the future, but I can see some non triv…

This EPUB file appears to be invalid: its internal structure mixes slashes (correct) and backslashes (incorrect) in file paths. This should be reported to the publisher so that they can fix it.

I would simply record the review as a journal article with its own author, and have another record for the reviewed book. You can decide to designate them as related items in your Zotero library https://www.zotero.org/support/related As for the cit…

Your own library and group libraries are separate (see https://www.zotero.org/support/groups#zotero_groups ), so no, your personal references (and PDFs) would not be available for your colleague unless you copy them manually to the shared library. …

https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/508669#Comment_508669 5th (or more) similar project announced around here. Imagine what you would achieve if you started working together? :-D

It's the 4th such plugin announcement I can find in this forum. I salute the enthusiasm, but maybe all the developers could get together, join forces and make sure the resulting project is well maintained? https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/1289…

Can you post a specific example where the problem happens? It is often easier to study practical cases.
-
For the examples, please use the exact documents listed in the instructions. Please read them carefully.

Please provide more details about the style, as explained in https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/REQUESTING.md#requesting-csl-styles

I have experienced the same problem, now the latest release feels much more solid. I've had to manually update it for some reason, but after that everything is running (and exiting) smoothly.
-
In order to be citable, there must be a parent item in Zotero containing the relevant metadata, see https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#pdfs In general I do not expect that Zotero will retrieve metadata for MSDS PDFs, so you need …

Good, it sounds like they eventually understood the need for more granularity! It's not really obvious, and the current translator doesn't seem to capture the DOI, but since it is available in the URL and somewhere in the HTML we could improve that.
-
I don't know why, but it seems to be the standard practice of at least one publisher (Routledge) to not assign a DOI to its book chapters, only to the ebook itself.
-
I can't find any mention of it in this thread (and I'm a bit surprised about this), but metadata updates are possible using a plugin https://github.com/northword/zotero-format-metadata
-
You can find the mapping from RIS to Zotero in the designated import translator: look for translators/RIS.js in your Zotero directory. The information is in the fieldMap structure, it isn't too complicated. I hope this helps - don't hesitate to rea…

I'm not a core Zotero developer (I'm working on a few plugins, metadata translators and text translations), but I was trying to get you to give more details about your request in a way that developers might be able evaluate. Your latest post certain…

I'm fine with the new keys, but it's certainly good to know for some other users. Thank you!
-
Thanks for your work, I don't have anything else to report: I have re-created all of my citation keys (or perhaps actually just repaired their visibility in Zotero) shortly after my first post in this thread.
-
1050 different values: right, no one wants to deal with that manually - I don't know if there are gaps in your sequence, but I suppose it's the actual order of magnitude. So yes, I'm suggesting to modify the RIS file using a text editor: replace al…
-
How many different values do you have? If you have just a few, you could export several RIS files and import them as distinct Zotero collections. If you have many, you could turn your label into a keyword (replace LB with KW in your RIS file) and i…

I understand how they can be culturally different, and I essentially agree with that. My question is how they would be different in the context of Zotero. Adding new item types is a complicated process, so there needs to be a very strong reason for …

As answered by a developer, translations happen on Transifex. Teams of volunteers handle each language, and the results are imported later into the Zotero code base. As for a Photo item type: I don't think the value of the object is the key factor…

Just to add a data point: on my machine I didn't get a prompt from BBT and all Citation keys were deleted. Not a big problem for myself, but I'm guessing this wasn't the intended behaviour.
-
I don't have the answers to your questions, but I can recommend one thing: be extremely careful to add significant delays in your code between requests to the same platform. Most licence contracts explicitly forbid massive downloads (with no actual …

You shouldn't have deleted the items in your library, if it's a duplicate you should merge the identical items https://www.zotero.org/support/duplicate_detection And if it is not a duplicate, deleting it will have no effect on your document - the re…

There isn't much metadata you can get from the page, unfortunately. But you can import some minimal information (title, authors, year) through the Endnote export of Google Scholar: https://scholar.googleusercontent.com/scholar.enw?q=info:QWtsPX3xNK…

Yes, the information is there. Maybe you are looking at the info pane of the parent item? The Indexed field is in the info pane of the attachment.

In other words: feel free to list the missing elements here! :-) If you are comfortable with Github, it can be slightly more efficient to open an issue there: https://github.com/zotero/translators/issues
