I believe that it would be beneficial if we have an option for color coding the text we are reading.

Mendeley 1.4: Since upgrading this afternoon Word cannot open after refreshing with the plugin
Hi there,
After a few years of happy Mendeley use I have a encountered a problem I do not know how to deal with.
I upgraded this afternoon to 1.4. After adding a couple of references to the paper I am working on (in Word, using the plugin), saving, and quitting Word, I received a nasty surprise when I tried to open the file again:
The open XML file blah-blah.docx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents or the name of the file might contain invalid characters (for example, V).
Details: No error detail available
Location: 2
Thereafter I am asked if I want to recover the contents of the document.
I have tried everything, including uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin. No joy.
I also rechecked the references I was working with to ensure there was nothing funky.
Then I recovered (with Time Machine) a previous version of the file from this morning. No problem. It opened fine. As soon as I pressed Refresh in the plugin: BAAAAM, the same issue again.
I am pretty desperate, as this is a major bummer.
I hope you clever guys can shed a light.
Many thanks,
Jorge

Grouped references
Hello everyone,
I've been working with Mendeley for some time now. However, in a paper I'm writing they asked me the following format:
[1] a) Author, A., and Coauthor, B., Adv. Mater. 2006, 18, 1-3; b) Author, A., Coauthor, B., Coauthor, C., Adv. Funct. Mater. 2006, 16, 1-5.
Which means that one reference should contain several others instead of the typical [1-5] and then list the 5 references separately... I've been unable to find or create such kind of format. Does anyone know how can I manage to do it?
Thanks a lot!

Citation of manually entered book.
Hi there,
I recently entered a couple of books/bookchapters manually to my Mendeley Desktop. When I try to insert them into my document using the word plugin, nothing happens. All the regular pdf files are easily imported though.
What can I do?
I'd appreciate your help.

web of science importer failure
I want to populate my new Mendeley desktop.
So I go to web of science and search articles.
But the importer doesn't work!
For example, at this page, when I try to Save to Mendeley, it doesn't see the (obvious to me) bibliographic data on the page.

removing duplicates in a Bibliography
Hello, I am in the librarian certification program, and when creating my first bibliography in Word, it has generated multiple listings (a, b, etc.) when I have cited the same paper more than once (APA 6th doesn't do this in the alpha-date bibliography listing). I found one question with a "we will get back to you" answer from 2013 in the support group, but no other solution.
I'm happy to attach the word file, but it doesn't seem to be allowable in this interface.

How to get a List of Literature in Harvard Business style of all your sources?
Dear participants,
I would like to know if there is a way to get a "Literature List" of all your articles chronologically sorted by alphabet in Harvard Business Style or other citations styles. This is always necessary for you paper.
Otherwise it takes very long to make "Literature List" manually.
Please let me know if you know how to do that.
Best wishes and regards

Chicago style with footnotes in word
I cannot figure out how to cite in word using the Chicago footnote style in word, that is, in mendeley I select "Chicago Manual of Style 16th Ed. (note)", but when in word, the whole reference shows up in the text, instead of a footnote. Is there a tutorial about this I can resort to, or can anybody help me?
I am using MS Word 2013, windows 8.1, and references are stored in Mendeley Desktop and then retrieved from Word 2013.

Suppress author using Word plugin (Mendeley Cite-o-matic)
I need to suppress the author in a citation. No options come up if I right click on the citation, and if I go into 'Edit citation', the only option is to add a second (or third, etc.) citation on.
Is there any way to do this, beyond just deleted the author within the Word doc?

quotation
Hello,I am a new member here. I need to ask you an info regarding quotation.
I am currently writing an ebook in which I use some parts of other books or pdf files as bibliography (sometimes all the ebooks, sometimes only few parts of them).
Through mendeley, I discovered how it is simple to create a bibliography by simply drag and drop the pdf file I want to quote in your software (mendeley desktop).
My question is the following: how can I quote by mentioning only the chapeters, sections or pages I really used for writing my ebook? for instance, in my ebook I used some chapters (2 and 3) of a reference book and some pages (45 to 57) of another reference book. How can i create a bibliography in which compare these references with the exact chapters and pages I used (and not all the books)?
Thanks for now

Import/Download from publisher
Is it possible to set up an interface (possibly using the 'save to mendeley' bookmark) that, in addition to saving citation information to Mendeley, it also allows importing of full text PDFs direct from the publisher, if you enter login information (institutional/personal) that grants pdf access?
Thanks

Editing Citation Style Not Working
I am trying to edit the CSE numeric style to fit the requirements of the Journal of Developmental Neurorehabilitation.
The only changes is the addition of square brackets to the in-text citations and making them regular size and not super scripts. However, when I go to the visual editor and make these two changes to the citation, it no longer works and shows up as a strange format...
