Welcome to the Zotero Issue Tracker

Guidelines

1. This is primarily a developers' tool, not a discussion forum or feedback medium. Comments should generally be limited to those that provide new information or offer concrete implementation ideas. Larger/ongoing discussions should be carried out on the dev list or in the forums.
2. New ticket creation is restricted to core developers and admins. If you believe you've found a bug or have a feature request that isn't already in Trac, please post a note in the ​forums.
3. Patches to be incorporated into the official codebase will need to have an associated ticket and be reviewed by a core dev before they can be committed. If you don't see a ticket for a patch you've written or would like to work on, drop us a note on the dev list.
4. Don't modify other people's bugs. This applies in particular to the priority, target milestone and assignee fields. If you'd like to suggest a change or offer to work on a bug owned by someone else, add a comment instead.
5. To quote ​Mozilla's Bugzilla Etiquette page (which is also worth reading): "Some of these rules may not apply to you. If they do not, you will know exactly which ones do not, and why they do not apply. If you are not sure, then they definitely all apply to you."

Comment Access

Only authenticated users can add comments and modify tickets. To request a Trac account, please fill out the ​SVN/Trac Access Form.

Source code access

Code for standalone Zotero and the Zotero Firefox extension is hosted at ​GitHub. You can check out the latest version of the code with git using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/zotero/zotero.git

This will create a new zotero directory with a "working copy" of the development trunk. For instructions for running Zotero from a working copy, see ​SVN and Trac Access.

Note: If you're not planning to make code changes and just want to try out updates to Zotero as they are committed, you can use the ​development XPI rather than an SVN install.
