Feature Request: Sync Desktop Settings

jamesdg
I have recently set up Zotero on two work computers and have been frustrated that even though. I can sync files, my settings do not sync. Ideally I would love to be able to sync all of my Zotero preferences across machines, including plugins and plugin settings. If that's too much, then even base Zotero settings would be a great start.
Thanks for considering!

    This is occasionally requested, but I'm not convinced it really works. Various preferences are computer-specific and just wouldn't make sense being synced. Marking every single preference — the dozens or hundreds of them that exist — as being global or not could address that, but I'd be worried it would create more confusion. And people likely have different ideas of what preferences should apply to all of their computers and which shouldn't, for reasons specific to their own workflows.
