Hello,
I have put together a simple plugin for Zotero that does little more than just inserting citations to LyX documents. It's been inspired by Lytero, which I wanted to improve, but ended up starting from scratch (with some help of Lytero code). Hence the new name.

My ideal for LyX/Zotero plugin was:
1. no need to export to bibtex every time I added articles to Zotero
2. automatic updates of the bibtex database
3. no need to specify the document and bibtex file every time I close Zotero or LyX
4. custom keys

Hope others will find it useful.
Please see: http://www.klubko.net/?page_id=945 for details and the installation file. I have tested only on Windows XP, Firefox 3.5.6. It seems to be working quite smoothly, but more testing and some improvement will follow. Please let me know about any problems you encounter and comments/improvement ideas.

Hello,
I have cleaned up the plugin a bit and added some new functionality. It can now update the bibtex file with any changes made in Zotero. Currently the cite keys are customizable, but I am thinking about removing this feature. Are there any serious reasons why custom cite keys are important? I want to keep them readable, so the LyX dialog can be used side by side with Zotero, e.g. to change text before and after, because this cannot be done through the pipe (only insertion is possible).
