Bulk Editing in Zotero

edited June 19, 2024
Due to the lack of built-in bulk editing or batch editing in Zotero, I've developed a script that enhances and expands upon Schoeneh's Zotero Search and Replace script.

You can find the script and detailed instructions (with pictures) here:
https://github.com/thalient-ai/zotero-scripts/tree/main/zotero-bulk-edit

This script enables users to bulk edit record metadata in Zotero with a user-friendly prompt system for searching and replacing field values. It supports regular expressions, suggests field names, handles both fields and creator entries (author names), and offers the option to edit selected items or search across collections or saved searches.

The script is designed to be easy to use.

I use the script in Zotero 7, but I don't see why it wouldn't work for older versions.
