can't snapshot medium articles

kundeng
after snapshotting medium.com articles, I can't open them. It just prints errors "article not found".

I tried to save medium.com pages in onenote by manually copying and pasting, it works fine except that all images are empty.

    Sites like Medium that do complicated things with JavaScript often don't save well. Zotero's snapshot functionality is based on the save functionality in Firefox, so there's a good chance you'd see the same thing if you used Save Page As there (or in Chrome, which works the same way). We're planning to replace the snapshot functionality in a future version with a process that can save the static final version of the page without being affected by scripts running on the page.

    As I just have encountered the same problem. For me the Firefox Plugin "Save Page WE" by DW-dev https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/save-page-we/ worked well.

    It saves one big HTML file, which can then be added to Zotero.

    Until Zotero stores the static final version of the page, this could be a workaround.
