WordPress HELP!!

This group is for neophytes to WordPress who are trying to use it as a Bbd alternative and have questions that “everyone knows” the answers to already. Except those who don’t. Quick answers to specific questions is what I envision here, so we can set up our courses without spending hours trying to find out a simple answer. Of course, we NEED EXPERTS in the group to actually answer the questions. All experts and neophytes please join this group!!

Zotero feed widget

Posted by Maura A. Smale (she/her) on February 14, 2011 at 10:15 am

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to use the Zotero feed widget on a sidebar and after pasting in the feed URL I’m not seeing any items. I’ve tried this on the Twenty Ten and Cutline themes so far. The feed URL seems to work fine in my Google Reader.

Also, I’m wondering whether it’s possible to display my Zotero feed on a page rather than in the sidebar.

Any ideas are most appreciated!
Thanks,
Maura

Hi Maura – I will take a closer look tonight – but I couldn’t get it to work either. I noticed that the plug-in doesn’t seem to be in WordPress.org anymore – but I did notice that there were 4 other Zotero-related plugins available. Check out
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=zotero&sort=
If we can’t get the one we have to work, maybe we can get one of these installed.

Thanks Scott! I’ll take a look soon and see if there’s anything particularly well-reviewed.

Hi Maura – I tried again, but unless I’m missing something, that plugin is just not working. But I like the looks of Zotpress – it uses configurable short codes that seem really easy to use. I’m going to open up a ticket to get this one installed. Let me know about any of the others, and I will include them on the ticket as well. Thanks for getting this going – I really like Zotero – itll be great to get a working plugin!

Hi Maura – ZotPress is now available for use. I wrote a post about it in the Codex –

Hi Scott, thanks for writing this post. Zotpress looks great — I look forward to taking it for a spin.
