Search or filter collections

bovender

Hi,

I'm a long-time user of Zotero and I absolutely love it. Over the years, I have accumulated a lot of collections and sub-collections. This makes it a bit cumbersome to locate the collection that I need for a given project.

Is there a way to search for or filter collections? Or alternatively, declare some currently used collections as "favorites" that are sorted to the top?

Well I guess this question is really a feature request :-)

Thanks!

To sort to the top, you can add a character like "_" at the beginning of the name.

Thanks very much and sorry for not finding the original discussion. The leading underscore is an interesting trick, I use it sometimes for files but it did not occur to me to apply this to Zotero ;-)
