managing lookup engines : adding an engine

jcmeunier · April 20, 2019

Is it possible to ADD a lookup engine ?

When I go to "manage lookup engines", it only shows two lookup engines, apparently the only possibility is a MINUS sign, which means I could delete one of the two, but cannot add any other.

Is this a bug ? Or is it normal ?

Currently the only way to add engines is to edit the engines.json file in the “locate” folder in your Zotero data directory: https://zotero.org/support/zotero_data

See here for some example additional engines:
