Adding a tag to many entries at once
I started organizing entries into collections before I realized that they would not be portable. Now I want to switch to tags. I would like to be able to select all the items in a given collection and add a tag. Documentation suggests that I should be able to select a group of entries and drag them onto a tag, but when I select multiple entries at once, the tags disappear. In fact, all the content in the right-hand pane disappears. I think I must be doing something wrong. Any ideas?

fcheslackYou need to drag the items onto a tag in the Tag Selector (https://www.zotero.org/support/collections_and_tags#the_tag_selector) which appears on the left side, below collections/groups. If you don't see it, it's probably collapsed and you can open it by clicking on the bar just below the collections.

LTER NetworkGreat. Yes, it was hidden. I kept trying to open it by dragging the divider up, but nothing happened. Just needed to click. Thanks!
