Create a "show in Google Scholar" link

How can I create a link or right-click menu entry that searches a Zotero entry in Google Scholar? Or is there a plugin that already does this? If not, I would volunteer to create one if someone gives me a little bit of guidance.

Main motivation behind this is to be able to quickly access the list of papers that cite a paper, i.e. the "cited by" link (or the "related articles" one), which is IMO the main reason I use GS.

My current flow is to copy-paste the title of the article and search it in google scholar.
  • Click a journal article item, and then open the Locate menu (green right-arrow icon above the right-hand pane). If you don't see Google Scholar Lookup, choose Manage Lookup Engines, and then double-click Google Scholar Search in the list.
  • Thanks a lot! I've been using Zotero for years and I have totally Ignored that right-arrow menu! Do you know if I can assign a shortcut to it?
  • No, there's no shortcut available for locate.
