When I try to drag-and-drop, instead of a citation key I get the bib entry. For example, where I would expect to have the inline text \cite{darwin_origin_1859} I get the entry @book{darwin_origin_1859, title = {On the {{Origin}} of {{Species}}}, publisher = {{London: John Murray}}, author = {Darwin, C. R.}, date = {1859}}.

My settings in the Better BibTeX tab are:

  • Citation key format: [zotero];
  • QuickCopy format: all options drop the bib entry, including LaTeX and Cite Keys;
  • LaTeX command: cite.

My settings in the Zotero Export tab are:

  • Default Output Format: Better BibTex.

Drag-and-drop worked as expected a couple of weeks ago, and I don't think I have changed much since then. I have switched every setting in those tabs back and forth, restarting after each attempt. Thanks

Linux x86_64 Linux x86_64, Firefox 52.0.2, Zotero 4.0.29.19, Better BibTex 1.6.96.

Setting the quick copy format to Better BibTeX Quick Copy should do it.

For those who have no idea where to find the "Better BibTeX Quick Copy",
Edit->Preferences-> Export tab -> Default Output Format

Thanks for the nice add-on!

Hi for the latest version, I just cannot find the option as you mentioned above, could you help me to find an updated path? Thank you.

Edit->Preferences-> Export tab -> (not sure what this step is) Default Output Format

It's still in the same place:

QuickCopy
