Tried to add Better Bibtex citekey column to Zotero 6 but now I can't see any of my papers

punkrockewok

Now when I start Zotero, it shows my papers briefly in the center pane, then they disappear and I can't see or access them. The collections pane folders seem empty, and the center pane is blank.

I removed Better Bibtex, restarted, used sync to try to restore.

It was working great! I just wanted citekeys back in my columns!

Can you open an issue on the BBT GitHub repository?

punkrockewok

OK, I've done that. My current version of Zotero no longer has the add-on.

I deleted bbt so it's difficult for them to troubleshoot since I can't create an error report. My Zotero Report ID is 1891320183.

If the problem persists with BBT not installed, it must be a Zotero issue, not a BBT issue.

@punkrockewok: Not clear what you're reporting at this point, but if you're still having trouble with all extensions disabled, we'd want to see a Debug ID for Zotero startup through to getting the error, using the "Restart with Logging Enabled…" option.

Debug ID: D1167369692

Upon start up, my Zotero parent/child files appear in the center pane for a few seconds, then disappear. My collections are listed on the left but are empty like nothing is tagged. Sometimes on start up, the parent/child files appear in the center pane, but there's nothing in the left hand pane (info/notes/tags).

You still have extensions enabled in that Debug ID.

I removed all add-ons and restarted Zotero and I think I'm back up and running. Thanks for all help. It seems it might have been the PubPeer add-on, not BBT.

It appears I might have had the same problem a few weeks ago. Does this ring a bell?

It was the PubPeer add-on for me. This only happened on one of my computers otherwise set up identically, so it is a bit weird.

Just reinstalled PubPeer plugin, and reproduced the issue.

@dstillman any clues in the log as to what the pubpeer plugin may be doing wrong?

@emilianoheyns

I saved the log (746973528) with all other plugins removed or disabled, except Pubpeer. Here is a link:

The error console also has a lot of messages like this:

This specific issue with the Pubpeer plugin just got fixed in version 0.0.14, so thank you!
