How to get rid of import folder without loosing the imported items?
Whenever I import Zotero RDF Files I got a new collection in my library. I want to integrate these imported files into my library and then to get rid of the import folder (collection). But whenever I delete the collection all the imported items are also gone.
I moved the items explicitly to my library collection or to other collections. But again: If I delete the imported collection folder all my items are gone where ever I have moved them.
The only way - I figured out – is to copy all the items. But this is an tedious task as you can only copy one item by one item.
Maybe I'm getting something wrong. I'm sure there should be an easier way to integrate imported items seamlessly.

But ZotPress has problems to sync my relatively huge Zotero Database (about 3.000 entries). Maybe something wrong with German Umlaute or a similar problem? I spent nights to find the problem together with the plugin author. So I decided in the meanwhile to open up a new Zotero account and to export/import my about 200 publications entries by a punch of 5-10 publications and to see if ZotPress synchronization still works.
I tried with Zotero to share a group and to synch between the two accounts, but – because of many PDFs – I'm getting over the size limit of my new account and don't want to pay for two Zotero accounts.
I know: Not "a typical workflow". Maybe there would have been better solution but I'm running out of my spare time (Holidays) and I really have my publication list done.
