I am using Word 2004 and the most recent versions of Firefox/Zotero. I wrote an article for a book using Chicago style with footnotes. The book editor has requested Harvard style in-text citations.

I changed to Harvard IEEE using the 'Zotero Set Doc Prefs' button in Word and also clicked the 'Zotero Refresh' tab. New citations are Harvard-style in-text and a Harvard-style bibliography has been generated. The citations that I inserted before switching styles are also now Harvard-style, BUT they are still FOOTNOTES.

I would really like to automatically switch them to in-text. I have searched the support discussions, but have found nothing on this topic. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Nick. Cutting and pasting as you suggest does not work for me - I still get footnotes.

I also tried changing all citations back to Chicago footnotes, then to Harvard in-text. I did get an error, both when I changed it back to Chicago footnotes and back again to Harvard in-text. Moreover, when I changed it back to in-text, all of the citations were gone and in their place were notations such as this: 1/22/10 1:13 PM. The error message when I changed it back to Harvard in-text was: Zotero experienced an error updating your document. AttributeError: 'Keyword' object has no attribute 'startswith'.

Hello, I am having a similar problem. I am using Zotero 3.0.1 with Mac integration (though I'm not sure of what version of that) with Word for Mac 2008. My document is in Chicago style with footnotes (full note) and I would like to change my citations to Chicago style (author-date) in-text. However, when I convert them they change from the footnote style: 1.

Brubaker, “In Haiti: the art of resilience,” Smithsonian, September 2010, 42–49. To 1.(Brubaker 2010, 48), but it is still in the footnote and actually not 'in-text' and the superscripted footnote numbers are still in the document as well. I tried changing it with different styles and changing it back and forth as you suggested above, but nothing seems to work. Any help you can give me would be much appreciated. I'm also having this problem. I use standalone zotero version 4.0.29.5 with Word 15.31 for a MAC.

I inserted all of my footnotes using Zotero (never the word insert footnote feature), and I cannot convert my footnotes from footnotes to in-text parentheticals. There is no problem converting the within-citation formatting - i.e. From author-date to full note, or to something else altogether, i.e. But I cannot move the footnotes into the text. I have no difficulty with a new document and starting the citations in-text that way, but I'd like to be able to convert the existing 100 or so footnotes from this article into in-text parentheticals.

Hoping you can help and looking forward to your assistance. Problem switching from footnote citations to in-text citations. I use standalone zotero version 5.0.17 with OpenOffice 4.1.3 and with LibreOffice 5.3.6.1. Process: I use Scrivener and Zotero. I inserted all my citation in Scrivener as footnotes. I exported the Scrievener document as.rtf, then opened it in Word and saved it as.odt. I had to do this step because I couldn't see the footnotes in the document when I saved directly as.odt from Scrievener.

In Zotero, I used the RTF Scan option to convert the citations. In OpenOffice, in Zotero Toolbar: 'Set Document Preferences'- no matter what citation style i use, the footnotes don't convert to in-text citations.

I tried the above step in LibreOffice and the footnotes did not convert to in-text either. Has anyone found a solution to this? Or will I have to insert the citations one-by-one again in the final OpenOffice or LibreOffice document?

Hi, I encounter the same problem. I am using windows 10, office 2013, and zotero 5.0.17.

I tried it with chicago manual styles. First, I added full note citations.

As long as you do not close ALL office programs, converting works fine. However, if you close ALL office programs, and re-open the documents, converting from full note to author-date do not run properly. As said above, zotero converts full notes to author-date citations, but in footnotes. The result seems like: citation1 citation2 - 1 (Aquinas 1960, 15) 2 (Clerk 2005) I am not sure the problems comes from zotero or office. I may run take the risk to re-install the office. edit: Close the office documents, while the citation is full note. File format is docx if you mean it.

I have made some more attempts. Firstly, I opened a new office documents. I set 'Chicago manual of style (full note) as style. I added two case citations using Zotero. I converted it to different styles. It works fine. Then I closed, opened, closed and opened the documents.

Conversion is always successful. Then, I opened the second office document.

Now, there are two open docs. One is only two footnotes while the other has much more.

And this second document was using another style, and could not convert full note to the author-date style. Then I closed all of them, and I re-opened the first document. It only used Cms full note, and never used lesser known styles. However, this time it could not convert the document properly. So, it seems to me that the problem is with the these lesser known styles.

These styles corrupt both the document that used it, and the documents that is open at the same time.
