Reading List plugin lost

Eva_Ommert
Dear all,

I have just discovered that my reading list plugin vanished from my Zotero installation.

I first thought it was because of my recent transation to a new computer, but I have checked and it's the same on my old one. So I suppose it must have to do with some recent updates of either the plugin or Zotero. But I am also surprised that I don't find any other post here on the issue. It could have happened at any point in the past two months.

So first question, what could have happened here? (Mainly in order to avoid it to happen again)

Second question, how can I get my reading tags back? I see that apparently the plugin sets an extra field for this information and this is luckily still there for all items that I had tagged that way. But is there a way to integrate this "old info" into the new installation of the plugin? It won't automatically pick it up.

Glad for any help and suggestions!

    For problems with a plugin, you'll need to contact the plugin developer.

    Assuming this is the plugin you mean, you can update directly from github. Apparently the plugin's auto-updating was broken at one stage ... which might have left you with a version that is no longer compatible with a recent Zotero update you did ?

    Thanks for your answer!

    I don't really know how but now it works. It picked up all the old info and displays them in the way I had configured the different tags.
