Having multiple zotero users on same computer
Hello
I'm about to create a Zotero group for a research project. We have four public computers in the office that need to be shared by multiple users (up to 12), who will all have separate personal zotero accounts in addition to the shared group library. We have not been able to figure out how to log in and out of our personal accounts on the shared computers. Right now, anyone can access the personal library of the person who originally added zotero to the Firefox located on the computer, even when we 'log off' on the zotero homepage. Can this be solved by creating separate profiles on Firefox, or is there an easier solution using zotero?
Thanks

ajlyonSeparate Firefox profiles would be sufficient, so long as you don't need them to be password-protected. There is not a way to do this from within Zotero (although you could do something really messy by changing sync credentials and the location of your data directory from the preferences, but don't -- it's bound to be confusing and inconvenient).
