Display URL in middle column

bjohas
Hello,

it doesn't seem to be possible to display the URL in the middle column, it's not part of the fields that can be selected for display.

It would be good if that was possible, so that URLs can be quickly checked (and to see which items have URLs).

Is there a reason why particular fields have been excluded? It woudl be good to exclude as many as possible, as they are tucked away under "more columns" anyway!

Thanks!

    the criterium for inclusion is/was that something could conceivably be used for sorting, which is why URLs weren't included.

    For instance, I added a number of webpages to Zotero, which were all from the same site, and all had the same title (across that whole section of the site, say "learning"). So I had 20 entries in Zotero, all called the same.

    On the site itself, the entries had a hierarchical structure, e.g.

    /learning/topic 1/page 1.html
    /learning/topic 1/page 2.html
    /learning/topic 2/page 1.html

    etc. I then looked to show the url in the middle column, precisely for sorting, so that I could put pages back into "reading order".

    Hope that makes sense, and a case for including URL as something I might want to sort on!
