Description
The Zotero-OpenOffice plugin provides the facility with OpenOffice Writer to manage references in your Writer documents. It provides five basic functions:
- Add Citation
- Edit Citation
- Zotero Insert Bibliography
- Refresh - updates your references to any changes in your Zotero collection.
- Document Preferences - allowing you to change your bibliographic style on the fly
Plugin details
The Zotero-OpenOffice plugin was Modified by Ian Laurenson under contract to the University of Southern Queensland for OOo Writer.
The macros integrate Microsoft Word (MSWD) or OpenOffice.org (OOo) with Zotero - a Firefox bibliographic extension.
The extension is available from the Zotero site.
The code is written in Python. Details about the coding and packing of OpenOffice extensions is available from the Extensions Wiki pages.
Issues
- Support: The developer of the Zotero-OpenOffice extension/plug-in is no longer able to support the code. We urgently need a volunteer to take this important work on.
- We would like to move the promotion and support of the Zotero Plugin to the Extensions repository site. But we can not do so untill we have a code maintainer!
- There are some improvements in both fields and extension support coming soon in OOo. More at:
- There are some bug reports which should be investigated and fixed:
- Zotero plugin in Openoffice crashes by changing citation style
- OpenOffice extension not working This one has a fix ready to be made to the plugin.
