Does zotero recognize an already archived web page/item

Hi,
I'm new here.

I'm wondering if Zotero has that capability to recognize and let us know (by a mark or highlight) when a web page, an item or even a note has been already archived into a collection showing us that we already have been there and to avoid saving (archiving) the same page/item or note again.

Having a big and multiple collections would make that feature necessary, remembering paths of our research/browsing and also to avoid unneeded duplicates.

Wired-marker doesn't archive but makes that very simple by permanent highlighting the desired saved selection so you know you already been there.

Thanks.
  • no it doesn't - this goes under the larger heading of duplicate detection which is one of the big not yet implemented but planned issues
  • Hi,
    Since duplicate is now implemented, does Zotero is able to detect and notice us "this item/file is already in your librairy, what do you want to do?"?
    Thanks
  • no. You can see here for a plugin (Firefox only) https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!searchin/zotero-dev/preflight/zotero-dev/yJLUTttGMXk/J9ZhaRJyDn4J and some discussion on the various difficulties of implementing this properly across the board
