Back-button and History for views

Karl Hegbloom · April 16, 2016

When I select an entry, and click around on it's "Related" items, or use "Tags" to change the viewed set of entries, I often want to go back, like I can when browsing the web. Sometimes I also might even like to use like a middle click, to open a view in a new tab.

So: Back and Forward browsing history for Zotero views, and tabs for multiple views would be awesome features.

I want this feature. That can be very useful.

The desire for this seems to increase with experience. After some years of using Zotero, I seem to regret the lack of "back button" about every 5 minutes of usage now.

I just made a plugin for this https://github.com/jdfinch/zotero-navigate

maybe helpful?

Thanks James for this plugin.

I can now navigate hyperlinks to other notes or books and back.

(I use Zutilo to copy the zotero://... links, and then create inline links inside of notes)
