Until today, I did not encounter any problems with beta 5. Today, however, I found something strange: Newly inserted cross-links between entries tend to disappear mysteriously after a few seconds (If I link entry A to entry B, the link appears in B and then often vanishes. Sometimes it vanishes only in B, sometimes even in A) (version: 5.0-beta.177+d8fed09 on Linux).
1. disable auto-sync. 2. insert into entry A relations to entries B, C, D 3. check whether relations remain stable and are shown also in B, C, D (they did!) 4. sync manually 5. check whether relations are still stable 6. --> find out that relations in B, C, D are in fact gone.
Just as an update: Problems with relations still remain in 5.0-beta.184+d527c34 E.g., after deleting in entry A a relation between entries A and B, the relation still shows up in entry B (before and after sync). (Clicking on the relation in B does not have any effect, though.)
Upgrade Storage
Do you see them after restarting Zotero?
I still fail to see when exactly the problem occurs, I cannot find any pattern up to now.
I just did a test (see D778066731):
1. disable auto-sync.
2. insert into entry A relations to entries B, C, D
3. check whether relations remain stable and are shown also in B, C, D (they did!)
4. sync manually
5. check whether relations are still stable
6. --> find out that relations in B, C, D are in fact gone.
