I'm experiencing something similar to what was reported in http://support.mendeley.com/customer/portal/questions/12829363-citation-key-inconsistency
I found that importing documents in Mendeley Web via drag/drop of the pdf, generates a citation key in the form of SurnameYearFirstWordOfTitleLastWordOfTitle. For example:
For Krinke, J. "Is cloned code more stable than non-cloned code?". DOI: 10.1109/SCAM.2008.14
The key generated is "Krinke2008IsCode".
When I review the document in Mendeley Desktop, and lookup the data based on the DOI, the key is changed to Krinke2008. This happened for all my citation keys when I started using Mendeley Desktop. As you can expect, this was a huge pain since this broke all my citations in my Overleaf documents.
How can I make Mendeley Web generate the correct citation key? Or can I change it manually?
