Upgrade StorageCopying links from proxied article page: how?
I love Zotero's proxy function, which helps me to quickly access articles through my university proxy. However, I run into troubles when I need to retrieve the article's original (un-proxied) DOI or URL, which is relatively often.
The problem here is not only that the URL in the browser's URL bar is proxied (it is www.university-something-publisher.com instead of www.publisher.com). The problem is that in every single place in which the article's URL or DOI is mentioned in the webpage, said URL/DOI is replaced with its proxied version. So, there is nowhere to copy the article's original URL/DOI from.
So my question is: is there a way to copy-paste the (unproxied) article URL/DOI that I am missing? Or do I really have to manually fix the URL/DOI every single time?

*However* Zotero is able to help you with this: The URL and DOI of items you import to Zotero is automatically unproxied, so you can copy from Zotero's info pane.
You are right that copying from Zotero is an option, I didn't think of that.
It may be quicker than the manual fix when I want to save the paper; when I don't, it may be easier to simply fix the URL manually.
Without Zotero, you'd have to go through your library website every time to get remote authentication using the same EZProxy service (or you'd have to manually rewrite the URL, which is what I do when I don't have Zotero on a computer).
Thanks for clarifying the details though <3
