Feed clean-up

xavier.la.rochelle · July 28, 2022

Hello,

I used an OPML file to subscribe to what I thought was a single journal's feed but I ended up subscribed to nearly a hundred feeds. I was wondering about a quick way to fix this without having to go threw the hassle of unsubscribing to every single feed one at a time.

Thanks!

Run this in Tools → Developer → Run JavaScript to delete all feeds:

var feeds = Zotero.Feeds.getAll();
for (let feed of feeds) {
    await feed.eraseTx({ deleteItems: true });
}

Thanks for the quick response!
I don't think it's working tho. After running it, I've got this message :
Error: Feed 53 has been disabled

I also tried to close Zotero and open it again but the Feeds are still there.

*** Update *** Actually it did work! I just had to wait a little while. Thanks for the help.

Restart Zotero and try the above code again.
