• Thank you adamsmith for your additional suggestions. I decided to leave the technology behind and found a way to reference another Duffy. :-) Since the research is related it wasn't too hard and it leaves the technical troubleshooting for another…

  in in-text citation contains suddenly the unwanted first name. Comment by shuibregtse February 9, 2014
• adamsmith - as I mentioned I checked both of those situations. There is only one Duffy cited in my currently research paper and I verified all entries in my database and paper. Thanks for the suggestion.

• Okay, now this is an issue. My database has three authors with the same last name of Duffy, and I verified that the format for the first name of the author I am referencing is correctly entered into all entries. In my research I'm only referen…

• I recently started to encounter this same issue with one author. Deleting the in-text citation in one instance fixed the issue, but in another instances it did not. Next verified that the authors name was consistently entered in all entries i…

• Sorry to respond again, but I now have my references all cleaned up. This is exactly what I've been waiting for. THANK you! I now have set colors for the 3 themes in my research, included in literature review, not related to dissertation, and…

• Thank you very much, to both of you. This is exactly what I've needed. I now have a color that I will use to mark articles as read. It also helps with the theme identification as well. I've setup my three research themes so the color coding show…

• Awesome Dan. Thank you so much. That's exactly what I was hoping for, and it would be nice to move the search under my sub-collection but this will do perfectly. I three 3 themes that I need to easily at my finger tips. Thank you very…

• I backup Zotero, uninstalled, reinstalled, and redirected to my document folder. With a quick check my files are all back and when I type in the start of a word the search appears to be working again. Now that it is reinstalled do you have any…

• Excellent. Thanks for pointing that out. I misunderstood on my first read. My report ID is 110131266 and there were three messages at the end about recursion. I know that's not a good sign. This tells me that it is searching for something…

• I'm not seeing a "report errors" anyplace. When I did the "Check Database Integrity" it did not give specifics for any errors just asked it I wanted them resolved. I do have the data directory going to a custom location, which is in the "docum…

• Thank you for the suggestion. I wasn't aware of that tool. I ran it, it resolved the identified issues, but the searches are still running slow. I ran it again and no errors were found. I did think that maybe syncing with the online Zotero w…

• sikittle, Thank you very much for taking the time to expand the workaround you have found. As you mentioned, the process you describe is very time consuming and doesn't allow me to develop an extensive database with the quick references. I am re…

• Thanks. Is there an ETA of when the color coding will be released? It sounds like it could meet my needs. Especially if it displays on the opening window.

• Thank you Adam, but the tags feature that Mark talks about above doesn't meet my needs at this point. While working with the articles a quick reference on the opening window of Zotero is what I am referring to. The color coding that you mention wo…

• I'd like to add to the need for customizable fields by including a quick visual reference for read/unread articles. As I conduct searches for articles I export the citation to Zotero, but have not found an easy way to document which articles I have…
