How can I find some items I have read recently

celanxu

HELLO,I often open several items at the same time to work.At the end of the day, I always close all the item.Next time I use the zotero, how can I find these item quickly? Where I can find these items I have opened recently?THANKS.

My version of zotero is 5.0.97-beta.35+a5902fc46.

Like a function of Mendeley: Recently Read.I think it is a very useful tool.

Along similar lines, a navigation "history" window would be very useful. I often find that a particular reference sets me off on a line of investigation that takes me from one reference to another to another etc in my various collections. And then eventually wanting to find my way back to the reference I started with. Or go back to a reference somewhere along the path I followed. That's difficult without a record of where I've been.

Agree on the usefulness of such a feature! Would be great if it became implemented in future versions!

I agree. While zotero remembers the recently opened tabs, this is not synced between devices, and also the iOS version does not (yet?) support tabs. One way to increase functionality even beyond "recently read" would be to allow saving & sycing tab sessions, like browsers do nowadays. So all papers for this project open -> session1, for that one -> session 2, etc.

It seems this feature request has been around for a few years. I agree, I would love the ability to quickly see which PDFs I opened recently, however it is done. One of the reasons I use Papers parallel to Zotero is because it has this feature. This small addition would greatly improve a common workflow.

Yup, just want to echo what others have commented here. Having a 'recently viewed' or 'history' function would be an amazing addition for Zotero.

celanxu

How many people desire this function! I hope it can be improved soon!

epannini

Agree - the 'recently added' and 'recently read' functions would be a great improvement. Many people who want to switch from Mendeley in this period are used to those features and would be more easily convinced if they were available here as well.

I think it would be very useful - I just accidentally closed one paper and now I am struggling to find it.

Plus one, this is a crucial feature.

However as a workaround you can already add the column Date Modified and see what document you annotated or added last.
