How to convert/move a "Group Library" back to "My Library"?

jc.debarros

Hi,

I'd like to convert/move a large "Group Library" back to "My Library".

I've tried to drag-&-drop but does not work.

I've look at the Zotero console but no option.

i've look at my Zotero web account, but no option too.

His there any way to do this?

Thanks,

Best.

Drag and drop does work — it's just a little inelegant right now. Select all items in the group library and drag them to My Library, and then drag each top-level collection. (The collections will automatically use the items that you dragged.) We'll make this easier in a future version.

Note that, if you previously dragged items or collections from My Library to the group, you'll need to delete those in My Library and and empty the trash before dragging them back from the group. (This, too, will be improved in the near future.)

Hi dear all,

has there maybe been an update on this topic? If so, I would really appreciate a link to the documentation. Thanks is advance :)

I tested the workflow suggested above, and there were conflicts with the duplicates which I had to resolve case by case. There seems to be a lot of manual work to move my extensive and multiple groups, with the itemswith annotations, relevant tags, connected papers properties and notes.

I have already extended the quota of the group space, and am paying for the extra space - but even that is not enough.

I would really want to be sure I will have the contents for my private use. Would it be easier for me to export the stuff and create a new account for my new project?
