Installation

Install by downloading the latest release, and then in Zotero:

  1. In the main menu go to Tools > Add-ons
  2. Select 'Extensions'
  3. Click on the gear in the top-right corner and choose 'Install Add-on From File...'
  4. Choose .xpi that you've just downloaded, click 'Install'
  5. Restart Zotero

After the initial installation, the plugin will auto-update to newer releases, so you should need to perform the process described here only once.

Note that the default setting of BBT will generate different citekeys than Zotero would itself generate; the keys from Zotero are not always safe for use in bibtex/biber. If you want to get the stock zotero keys, set the pattern in the preferences to [zotero].

Note that BBT needs to be installed in Zotero, not Firefox. There used to be two versions of Zotero, one standalone, and one that was installed in Firefox. BBT is a Zotero extension and lives where Zotero lives; Zotero is no longer available as a Firefox plugin, only as standalone.
