D285274088: Zotero Connector: Save to Zotero (Mastodon)

The Mastodon option is the default in a clean Firefox profile that's used for testing.

For the same URL in my everyday default profile: no Mastodon option.

For a different URL at the same server in my everyday profile: the Mastodon option is the default.

Try disabling other extensions in your main profile and see if the issue disappears. Also see https://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues

So far, not reproducible following an update of Zotero Connector to 5.0.162. Up from 5.0.160, if I recall correctly.

I can't remember which URL I used for D285274088, so I tested two mastodon.bsd.cafe URLs that I added to a library before the report, one of which was likely. Both OK: snapshots were saved.

Also successful: a snapshot of https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@grahamperrin/114350792510694190 – not a perfect snapshot, but enough for me to treat D285274088 as fixed, if you'd like to close this topic.

I see: Comparing 5.0.160...5.0.162 · zotero/zotero-connectors, I guess that this was the fix:

Fix snapshot saving failure on Firefox. Closes #540 · zotero/zotero-connectors@c9a53b1
