Items are automatically removed from collection ??

ChristianZimpelmann
Hey,

I have a problem with my Zotero Standalone 5.0.33 for Ubuntu:

When working within a collection, the selected item is sometimes removed from the collection without me wanting to do so. I have the feeling this happens especially after I assigned new tags.

Do you have any ideas what might cause this behaviour?

Regards!

    Just to be sure, the collection is not ordered by date modified and the item is simply moved to the top (or bottom) of the list, right?
    The item should still be in the main library. Can you confirm if the item has the new tags? Also, if the same item is in multiple collections, it is removed from only the active one or all of them?

    Thank you for the fast answer!

    The collection is ordered by year and it is not simply moved to the top or bottom.

    The item is indeed still in the main library and the new tags are attached.

    I am going to find out if it is also removed in other collections and keep you updated (it doesn't happen all the time).

    Also a clarification: The item is not removed immediately after I attach the new tag, but a few seconds later while the item is still selected.

    If you are able to capture this with a debug ID, that would certainly help, though I understand that might be hard:

    Are you using syncing with Zotero on multiple computers at all?

    **Updated: Ignore this and provide Debug ID as suggested by adamsmith**
    If you can recreate the issue, please provide a Report ID which helps Zotero developers see what's going on internally in Zotero.

    (Debug ID is the way to go here. I doubt that an error report will help)
