You didn't answer the question about the Zotero Beta. Can you check?
-
Sorry for the partial misunderstanding, and glad to hear that the Chrome fix will be deployed soon :-)
-
Well, Elsevier certainly designed this mechanism precisely in order to prevent the acquisition of a large number of papers. Massive downloads are generally forbidden by the license contracts, and technical work-arounds would be quite risky in my opi…

Important question here: does Zotero properly capture the reference (and PDF if you have access) when you resolve the captcha? Just checking whether I understand your situation correctly.
-
Did you follow the instructions to convert your document to a different word processor? https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/moving_documents_between_word_processors
-
You should explain what isn't working for you. The instructions https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/125257/troubles-using-zotero-in-google-docs ask for a Debug ID when no other steps have worked.
-
You need to take specific steps to save a document with Zotero references to a different format: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/moving_documents_between_word_processors

Progress :-) Now does this book cause problems if you add it by identifier (the original question)? It's working for me.
-
When reporting problems with metadata capture, always provide a link to the page where the problem happens.
-
"Interestingly, the data pulled over did not include the publisher or ISBN": again, please be more specific so that others can reproduce your problem. What book? From what exact page?
-
I agree that web pages where one can find books are not always the best metadata source (typically: library catalogs yes, major booksellers often yes, publisher websites sometimes, blogs and other review pages not so much), and when they're not it t…

I think it's always worth remembering that the preferred entry method is the browser connector https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#via_your_web_browser This being said, can you give a few specific examples? "add by identifier" inc…
-
If the documents are available or referenced on suitable platforms (document repositories, maybe library catalogues), get the metadata from there using the browser connector. Whenever it's possible, it's the best method - even for scientific PDFs it…

The instructions for style requests are available at https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/REQUESTING.md

Great! Thanks for the explanation.
-
Note that you wrote only about Firefox specifically, not about mainstream browsers, so my answer was perhaps not 100% aligned with your need. There's no official information about Zen or many other non-mainstream browsers, but in this forum there is…
-
Zenodo certainly supports other browsers than Firefox already, and there have been various reports on this forum from people who use it with Zen (which apparently accepts Firefox plugins). For example: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/48…

Thanks for the pointer! The translation teams will be happy to contribute when the time comes.
-
After a closer look at the Zotero source code, the fetch_xulrunner script actually uses these strings to modify some Firefox localization files (For the Mac version it would act on localization/en-US/toolkit/about/aboutAddons.ftl contained in Firefo…
-
Thanks, these details will be useful for the Zotero staff. As a fellow user, I wanted to put the most frequent problem out of the way.
-
Who is the owner of the 'Publis réseau RDI 2020-2025' group? The quota depends strictly on that person's plan, not the other group members.
-
Indeed these strings are apparently not in the Zotero internationalization files. If I understand correctly, the Zotero build process collects some Firefox files and modifies them. I can find "Manage Your Plugins" hard-coded in the app/scripts/fetch…
-
Which language is missing these translations?
-
Something like this? https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-pdf-translate

Préférences / Générales / Gestion des fichiers (https://docs.zotero-fr.org/general/) Le screenshot est encore basé sur Zotero 6 donc votre affichage sera légèrement différent.

I and many others understand the level of frustration and stress that writing one's PhD thesis can cause. We've been there, and I'm sure we all wish you a complete success with it. But... a hard time finding answers? The answer to this question and …
-
If you were using linked files, you might need to change their base directory https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/advanced#linked_attachment_base_directory
-
I'm not sure there is a simple mechanism for that but people with a deeper knowledge might know better. However: wouldn't it be easier for your web application to expose metadata in a generally recognized format such as COinS? There would be nothing…
-
Your issue isn't 100% clear, can you provide more details? See https://www.zotero.org/support/reporting_problems for the best way to describe your problem.
-
I have just tested Zotero's import translator for one book in my LT collection, it's actually working nicely with the embedded COinS metadata. However I don't see a multiple import while viewing my collection, so it can take some time to go over doz…
