automatic permissions with new Firefox upgrade

JodyStark
Hi. I have upgraded to the stand alone version of Zotero and as I am searching for articles on the internet, I seem to have to go back to my institution's library subscriptions to log in, find the journal and number then the article... Is there a way to have these permissions happen automatically as it used to with the old Zotero add-on to Firefox?

    That should already happen (it's the "Proxy" tab in the Zotero connector for Firefox preferences). If you don't mind, could you post a URL for an article as you see it after going through your library?

    It's seems to have worked itself out. I opened the page in Firefox and had to do something to sign in to ProQuest through my institution and now all appears to be well. I guess I just wasn't signed in? I'll get back in touch with a URL if there is other funny business. Thanks so much for your help.

    So this information used to be stored in the Firefox add-on, but I don't think it's currently being transferred to the connector, so you'll have to redo this through the library once for every resource/publisher, but then it'll work exactly as it used to (actually slightly better).

    Okay thanks.
