Zotero is not exporting dissertations (type=thesis) from a database service (e.g. ProQuest) according to APA 6th edition. The manual states:

Aurimas has repaired the issue with non-English proquest GUI versions in a rather heroic effort. You can wait for 24hs for the translator to auto-update, or you can update immediately from the General

it's mostly safe, but inelegant and you'll have links to deleted files in Zotero - I'd recommend that you delete the snapshot in Zotero (attached to each Proquest item) rather than the files in the st

(I've done in total 3 bath import from ProQuest. It seems that each imported work generated an extra folder with HTML stuff)

Hi everyone, you were right my problem stems from using the French UI for the ProQuest database. I was able to succesfully import to Zotero both one article at a time and multiple articles from the Se

dominicv, you wouldn't happen to be using the French interface of ProQuest, would you? I can reproduce the same error if I switch to French. Try using English (there is a selector at the top).

Hi everyone, I'm also having trouble saving from Proquest.

I remember I saw this bug-fix for ProQuest - its sounds like this might be good to solve your issue. Also check out this Improvements to Proquest translator page, maybe you'll find something there.

The Proquest translator is no longer working for me (through the Columbia U. proxy).

Well, I kept trying around, and the problem is recurring now. Here is a log for an import from ProQuest:

qenghis: that ProQuest page won't work through a proxy at the moment, because the PDF is on a different domain from the page being saved. However, a workaround for this is next on my list.

This url for example: http://search.proquest.com.ezproxy.cul.columbia.edu/docview/144672462

we need to see actual URLs to say more. I believe proquest should typically work with Chrome.

Hi Adam, with JSTOR, pdfs are automatically downloading for me, but with ProQuest, they are not. I haven't tested other sites.

I failed to reinstall and am a bit confused. Harvard 1 preview shows the date accessed etc, but that never occurred before - unless EBSCO and PROQUEST have recently added those fields or the Safari "g

2. (This is what I do): You can use the webpage item type and put the database provider (Chadwyck-Healey, Proquest; Centro Traditio Litterarum Occidentalium, Brepols) as the website title. Since those

Acta Sanctorum: The Full-Text Database, Chadwyck-Healey, Proquest, 1999-2012

I can have a look - unfortunately, the proquest translator isn't as stable as we'd like to - and they seem to have the unfortunate tendency to change the tag names in their site structure.
