Download Supplemental Chrome

jazzlw · April 15, 2018

There is a hidden option for the translators to download the supplemental material along with the main PDF from supported Journals. According to the github issue, this has been ported to Chrome as far as I can tell. (https://github.com/zotero/zotero-connectors/issues/84)

However, I tried to enable this feature, first through the advanced config in the standalone Zotero App, and then by adding the preference in the Chrome Connector configuration editor, both by making extensions.zotero.translators.attachSupplementary
set to true (I had to add it in the connector config)

But neither of these seem to produce the desired result of downloading the supplemental info (tested on Science, Nature, and Cell Journals). Can someone tell me why this doesn't work and how to fix it?

Much thanks

The translators for those specific sites need to be updated to support supplemental material. Can you give a specific example URL at each journal that has supplemental material?

Thanks, I'm happy to do that. It seems like this might be a problem with the option just not working though, since I tried it on several sites that it theoretically works on. But here are some URLs
