Rename tags

ghibbli

Hi
I've 1K Zotero tags on 31K PDF
All tags start with "#"
To remove "#", I replaced "tags" table in SQLite DB with a new table

```
[bad SQL removed — D.S.]
```

It works and I have backupped original table
But the new table is slow to show, while the original table loads quickly

Alternatives?

Don't modify the database directly. Use the web API or JS API. You won't receive any support for Zotero as long as you're using a database you've modified.

From Direct Access to the Zotero SQLite Database:

Generally, the SQLite database should be viewed as an internal database that has the benefit of being externally readable for people who want to get the data out in other ways.
