[5.0 Beta] My Publications (probably) not syncing perfectly

Continuing from this thread: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/274260/

The new system for "My Publications" is much better but I am noticing a sync issue between the local and online versions of My Publications. My local version has 7 journal papers, 4 conference papers, and 24 presentations. However, the online version is showing 5, 1 and 16 for those categories, respectively. See https://www.zotero.org/gurdas

I am not sure if this was the case already or something that happened after I installed the latest beta (5.0-beta.177+8a7d405).

  • I'm seeing the right number of those items. Are you still not?
  • Oh, actually, I think I know what the problem. I'm guessing you're seeing the right thing now, but there's something here we'll need to fix. Thanks for reporting.
  • Thanks, Dan. Yes, now I am seeing the correct numbers in the online version. Other observations:

    1. (somewhat major) Is there a way to pick the sort order for the online list? For example, I would like the items (within their respective item type) sorted chronologically with latest on top.

    2. (minor) The last listed journal article title does not show a hyperlink, possibly because its URL field has "dx.doi.org/10.1080/10962247.2014.990587" and the "http://" part is missing. It works fine when I click on URL in my local Zotero. I added the http in my home computer local copy (Zotero Firefox 4.0.x) and will check if it syncs with the 5.0 Beta on my work computer, and then subsequently updates the online version of My Publications.

    Yeah, we noticed that and are working on a fix.
  • Updating the URL field in my home Zotero 4.0.x copy updated the work 5.0 beta, which in turn updated the entry in My Publications (local and online).
