"Adding notes to attachments is no longer supported"
A follow up of https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/118116. I have upgraded to Zotero 7.0.8, but why "adding notes to attachments is no longer supported, but you can edit this note by migrating it to a separate note"?? This is a serious compatibility issue, because I add notes to attachments very frequently - more frequently than on a daily basis.
@dstillman, Could you please restore this functionality??

You can also add note annotations from within the PDF reader, which will show up under the attachment in the items list in a future version.
So how can I do this at least similarly in Zotero 7??
By the way, I couldn't save snapshot from web.archive.org using Zotero connector: it will create an item in Zotero, but the webpage's snapshot was never saved into Zotero. Could you please debug this? Thanks.
Update: I tested adding some note annotations to the saved web page's snapshot, and when I single-click on the webpage's snapshot to select it, I can see a list of note annotations on the right panel. This is somehow similar to viewing the notes added to an attachment as in Zotero 6 and before, *however*, I cannot edit or copy the information from the note annotations in the right panel, instead, I have to double click on the web page's snapshot to open it in a tab or window, and then click the note annotations on the left panel in order to edit or copy some information from them. So could you please make the note annotations editable or copiable from the right panel when single-clicking to select a snapshot or attachment?

The URL should appear on the Snapshot attachment if you have imported it from the browser:

Could you illustrate with screenshots to explain if this would not work for you?
There is a translator for web.archive.org.
Have you checked the option to attach snapshots when importing from web pages?

Otherwise, you will need to provide more information, following these instructions: https://www.zotero.org/support/troubleshooting_translator_issues

In Zotero 6 and before, the space in the right panel occupied by "Annotation" in Zotero 7 (as in the screenshot above) is a large space for adding and editing attachment's note - specific to that attachment only, but in Zotero 7 as in the screenshot above, there are no notes and it's impossible to add notes, instead, I can add annotations, but to edit or even simply copy some information from the annotation, I have to double click the attachment/snapshot to open it it a tab, so that the annotation can be shown in the left panel for me to edit it or copy some information:
