Upgrade StorageSynching content (notes, attachments etc.) betw My Library and a Group Library
Hello, I am still new-ish to Zotero and figuring things out. I have the desktop and online versions of Zotero and mostly use the online platform for adding items or more content to the items. In addition to My Library, I have some Group Libraries that I populate by dragging items from My Library.
I often add notes and attachments (pdfs) to my items. I have done that to items in either My Library or a Group Library indiscriminately, as I had assumed they would sync. However I just realized that if I add a pdf attachment to an item in the Group Library, for instance, it does not synch with the same item in My Library, so the pdf does not show up in the latter.
Is there a way of synching between My Library and the Group Library items so all content within any item is the same?
Thanks, Lorraine

Only way to kind of do this is to delete the item in the group, empty the group trash, and then re-drag it from My Library. Obviously that's a one-directionaly 'sync' only. Getting updates from both libraries isn't possible at all.
I also hope this feature will appear in the future.
