# InTextBib Shortcode Bug

 * The InTextBib shortcode is displaying seemingly random citations for sources 
   that are not being cited in the article. Additionally, it seems that things that
   were highlighted in Zotero (in PDF’s for example) are being displayed in text
   under the bibliography.
 * This “highlight text” as we are calling it seems to be exactly the same across
   all instances of the InTextBib. The two articles below illustrate this. Each 
   article has different cited works, but the random text in the bibliography are
   the same.

 * I believe that because the InTextBib shortcode isn’t working, the citations are
   also not working (showing the gear icon). They were working before.
 * Is there a setting in Zotero that could be causing this? We are on the latest
   version of the plugin, and all of the plugins on our website are up to date.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fintextbib-shortcode-bug%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Sorry to hear about this. Can you please try to clear the Zotpress cache for 
   the account on the Zotpress > Accounts page? That seemed to work for others.

 * Please see the thread “Zotpress has worked fine but now messed up with listing
   the wrong references”. (sorry that I started a new thread instead of continuing
   on this one).
