[Plugin] Reading Flow v1.3.0 — Reading Statistics and Resume from Recent Progress
I’ve released Zotero Reading Flow v1.3.0. It turns the existing reading-progress columns into a dashboard you can review and use to return to a paper.
Release notes: https://github.com/Moonweave-Research/zotero-reading-flow/releases/tag/v1.3.0
Install the XPI: https://github.com/Moonweave-Research/zotero-reading-flow/releases/latest/download/zotero-reading-flow.xpi
Dashboard screenshots and short demo: https://github.com/Moonweave-Research/zotero-reading-flow#quick-demo
WHAT’S NEW
• Open a modeless Reading Statistics dashboard from Tools → Reading Statistics or the Reading Flow item context menu.
• Review Current View or Entire Library, then refine the same scope with the Reading set (tracked) / All papers (inventory) paper-set, status, and history-range controls.
• See reading status, progress distribution, known remaining pages, an activity calendar, first completions, and Recent Progress.
• From Recent Progress, choose a paper deliberately: Show in Zotero selects it in the library, and Resume uses the existing saved-page Reader path. It never chooses or opens a “next” paper automatically.
DESIGNED TO STAY INSIDE ZOTERO
Reading history uses bounded daily summaries (up to 366 retained local-calendar days) in item metadata. There is no server or external database; unrelated Extra content is preserved, and PDFs and annotations are not modified.
It’s tested with Zotero 9.0.6 and supports Zotero 9.0.*.
Thanks to @aliphys for the detailed feature proposal that helped shape this release. I’d love feedback on which historical views, filters, or daily reading workflows would be most useful next.
