Upgrade StorageZotero Connector blocked by the 12VPX extension
I am using this extension to use the VPN 12VPX on a filtered list of websites, so that I can get direct access to publishers pages (university access), but still use the VPN on other websites that are blocked from China.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/12vpn-firefox/
When the extension is running, it blocks the Zotero Connector:

Even if I set the extension to use the direct access to the webpage, and not use the VPN:

Is there any way to get them work together? Otherwise, I have to disable the 12VPX extension every time I want to import an article.

dstillmanThe Zotero Connector talks to the Zotero app by making HTTP requests to 127.0.0.1, which is a special IP address for the current computer (the "loopback address"). That extension seems to be redirecting/blocking such requests (503 means "Service Unavailable"), which no properly behaving tool should ever do. You'd have to talk to them.
