Yes, the BBT settings in the Zotero preferences pane are provided by BBT,
but that preferences pane is mostly a passive GUI. The Firefox base that
Zotero builds on listens for changes in those fields and then changes the
settings on behalf of Zotero/BBT. That path only gets triggered if the user
makes changes in the GUI. There are a few other places where BBT actively
writes to the settings, but none of those places write to the "asciiBibTeX"
settings that is discussed here.

*Thanks everyone for their helpful comments. Finally, I was able to find a
problem in the Better BibTeX. Some update must have caused the
export settings to go off. It disabled the "Export unicode as
plaint-latex commands" option. Pretty bad bug, I think. This together with
my document not being set to utf8 caused a mess.*


Last release of BBT was 18 days ago, so if some update was a cause it
wasn't necessarily BBT.

If there's a problem in BBT, please report on the github issue tracker. I
currently can't think of a place in BBT that even could change settings --
not even the preferences pane. Those changes are managed by the base
platform that Zotero builds on.

 Hi,

Do you track the problematic file in version control (e.g., git)?  Is it
stored on an online service like Dropbox?  If not, I don't have a
suggestion, but either of those facilities should give some historical
perspective.

Thanks!

Yes, it might be worth trying to check whether a previous version of the
bib file fixes the problem. Sometimes Better BibTeX introduces problem.

As for the documents. Unfortunately there are quite a view documents
involved. Would you recommend downloading the previous version, accept
all changes in the document, and do a diff?

I am actually also using git. But I too rarely create commits. So, that
would be searching for the needle in the haystack, I guess. I need to
get a better commit routine, like once a day.

Yes, it is possible, but you have to write a script.
The change is recorded as a number (seconds from JAN 1 1970)
On unix it is easy to determine the value , say 1 day old:
$ date +%s --date=20200429
Here it gives 1588197600
Every number bigger than that in the lyx file markes the newer change.

Thanks everyone for their helpful comments. Finally, I was able to find 
a problem in the Better BibTeX. Some update must have caused the export 
settings to go off. It disabled the "Export unicode as plaint-latex 
commands" option. Pretty bad bug, I think. This together with my 
document not being set to utf8 caused a mess.

Hi,

I am hunting down some encoding error possibly to do with my 
bibliography which is created via Zotero and Better BibTeX. If I remove 
the bibliography from my document it works fine. I am unable to create a 
minimal example because I don't know which entry is causing the problem. 
Is there a way to show the tracked changes I made by date so I can go 
through all the changes I made today in order to find the problematic entry?


It is, unfortunately, urgent.

Kind regards,
Daniel
