Info panel (right side) does not correspond to opened item

edited December 19, 2022
...when opening an item, the info panel is often for a completely different item. Editing this will then mess up the metadata for a completely different item. Compare, for instance: https://imgur.com/a/ZouUhiE
  • (You mean right side.)

    Can you provide a Report ID? If you're running any third-party plugins, does this happen if you disable them?

    Can you provide a Debug ID for Zotero startup through reproducing this, using the "Restart with Logging Enabled…" option, and also provide the exact steps you're taking to do so?

    I have been seeing the same problem for a while too, but put off trouble-shooting it until now. Today I found by disabling all add-ons, and then adding them back in one by one, that I could trigger it reliably with the otherwise-great Night for Zotero (currently v0.4.20; Windows 10). It may or may not be relevant that I have 9 PDFs open in tabs at the moment. And so when I click on a new item to open its PDF, I get the correct PDF opened but I get the Info panel from one of the other open PDFs. Clicking on the tab for one of those PDFs and then back to the one I just opened then gets the correct Info panel.

    But looking at the OP's screen shot, Night is not enabled there. So there may be more than one way to trigger this problem ?

  • Enabled add-ons:

    Night for Zotero (0.4.20.)
    Zotero Tag (0.3.0.)

    Report ID: 2078085863
    Debug ID: D1133514973
  • Right, so it's the Night plugin. There's already an issue for it:
