working with saved searches

Two feature requests:

1. Sometimes I need to create a more narrow saved search from an existing one. It would be great if it was possible to duplicate the existing saved search--adding one or two search conditions would be faster than recreating and narrowing the search from scratch.

2. Suppose I have a saved search on a bunch of tags (i.e. tag=ch1 and tag=south america). If I select this saved search when adding items from online databases, it would be great if Zotero could automatically add these tags to the newly added item, so the item would automatically appear in the collection.

Thanks!
  • I see this is an old thread, but it's requesting exactly what I just came here looking for - has the ability to duplicate saved searches been added since Feb.? If not, is there a work-around anyone could recommend?

    Many thanks!

    There is now a ticket for this.
