2057133209 Trouble adding lookup engines

seeingtheforest · March 11, 2020

I added the lookup engines contained in this link https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bwiernik/zotero-tools/master/engines.json to my engines.json file and now am having issues - sometimes no engines show up, sometimes only the defaults, sometimes the option to manage the engines has disappeared, but I've never seen any of the new ones. I've restarted Zotero a few times, and haven't noticed a pattern. I deleted the engines.json as well as the locate folder and that didn't help either.

Help please?

In case you manually edited 'engines.json', did you validate your json, e.g., using this online tool? (Paste and click "Lint".)

Oops - turns out I had for some reason changed my data directory to be a subdirectory withing Zotero. So I changed a json that was not even being used. I updated the actual one and it works now. Sorry! Not sure how to close the Report ID for this
