Zotero automatically exports collections

kerstinbeer · July 21, 2023

Hi!

When I open Zotero it automatically exports collections in local folders. I found this option in the settings somewhere some time ago. Now, I want to redo this setting, but I can't find this option anymore. I also deleted or renamed collections, but it doesn't change anything.

Could somebody give me a hint?

Best wishes!

That would be some plugin you installed.

Most likely the BetterBibTeX add-on

Indeed, it is the BetterBibTex add-on. If disabled, the problem disappears. However, I reinstalled it from a new downloaded file and the problem is back. Where can I find the setting files for such add-ons?

I believe the BBT preferences are a tab in the Zotero preferences.
