Is it possible to Delete *all* automatic Tags
I've used Zotero for about 3 years now, and I didn't really know what I was doing for most of that time (I started in Undergrad.) Since Starting my PhD I've worked out a pretty comprehensive Tagging system that works for me, but I have a *huge* backlog of automatically added tags I'd like to get rid of, and then re-tag each item in my own system.
Is there a way to delete all old automatic tags? I noticed they show up as a different colour, so must be stored with some identifier. I've worked out how to stop new papers from adding tags.
On the other hand, I don't want to delete all tags as I have a number of papers (at least 100), using my own tagging system, and I don't want to have to re-tag them all (Especially since I will be re-tagging so many from before I made my own system.

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
If Firefox, you can use the Zotero Javascript API with the Execute-JS plugin to delete all automatic tags: https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/client_coding/javascript_api#exampledelete_all_automatic_tags
There is no easy way to do with with Zotero Standalone, sorry.
EDIT: I've found it.
I have one question, can be this functionality (pop-up menu) available by right-clicking on the white place in the tag part of the left column too.
