Zotero Connector fails pretty often to recognize loaded pages ID: 996650386

Hi.

Not an English native speaker. Forgive my mistakes and correct them if you wish.

I'm using Zotero 5.0.22 in Ubuntu 17.04 (64 bits). I use Firefox with the Zotero Connector extension (v. 5.0.24).

After opening the browser, the first page I visit can be saved with the tool-bar button (wich looks activated) provided by the Zotero add-on, but then the other pages I open in other tabs (from news or blog entries to bibliographic entries) can't be saved with the button (wich then looks grey). If I reload the page, the add-on button will work. That means I have to reload every page after being loaded once. Something really annoying when you have tens of tabs.

I know I could use the links from the address bar of the browser, but that's not as effective and fast as the button.

I appreciate the help to fix this. I'm sort of a heavy or power user of Zotero. I'm also familiar with software and programming. I'll help in what you say, If I can.

Thanks.
  • Sorry about this, we have some fixes in the pipeline for the issue, but haven't pushed them out to the public yet. Expect Zotero Connector 5.0.25 to address this, which should come out within weeks.

    Sadly, now I have 5.0.26 but the problem persist. I'll try to update Zotero and I'm going to restore my Firefox to see if it helps.

    Thanks.

    Update: It works perfect now. Thanks.
