can only export 1st page of my library

cadvanlei
hello,

apologies if this has been dealt with before - couldn't find anything on the subject:

on (Linux) Chrome>tick off top of the library list to select all books on library page>click on the export icon

only works for the first page of my library (ie, it opens a new tab, i copy & paste the content into a .txt file, save it, and import the .txt file to Goodreads): clicking on the export icon for any other page results in an empty page = new tab opens in browser but no content.

is this a bug or am i doing something wrong? is there any way to do a bulk export/select all the titles in my zotero library for export?

thanx!

    Please move this into the "webpage" category (by editing your first post and changing the category on the left) to clarify this is about the online version of the Zotero library and to make sure fcheslack sees it.

    I can reproduce the problem with export from anything but the first page of the online library.
    Steps to reproduce:
    1. click on an arrow to go to the 26th -- 50th library item
    2. check any or all item boxes
    3. click export & select bibtex

    Expected outcome: the page servers a .bib file to me
    Actual outcome: the page opens a new tab and nothing happens
    (FF 18.0.2 on Ubuntu)
    is there any way to do a bulk export/select all the titles in my zotero library for export?
    Not online, no, but you can export your entire library from the client - i.e. Zotero Standalone or Zotero for Firefox.

    previously clicked on wikipedia - first page: opens a new tab with a txt list of titles; second page: opens a new empty tab.

    just tried to click on bibtex - first page: downloads automatically to my desktop; second page: opens a new empty tab.

    ...any idea? I'm trying to download the zotero standalone but i'm in the middle of nowhere on an extremely slow internet dongle, etc...

    typically fcheslack fixes these types of issues within a couple of days, there's nothing you can do on your side.

    Should be fixed.
