I think the zotero database structure already has a lot of advantages over other databases that would be very useful for additional annotations support. I am particularly thinking about the fact that child notes are independent items. They can be ta…

@jamesnicholson: I would start with the standard things: (a) restart FF, (b) restart you computer, (c) reinstall zotfile. Can you do these things and follow up here again? @theed: Someone else reported that the moving sometimes fails. Maybe you are…
-
@mark: Thanks for the wording suggestions! I will think about a way to transfer the zotfile setup across computers or also from Zotero for FF to Standalone. But that will certainly come a little later. @Watari: I have updated the compatibility of z…
-
@sergiomf & romanov-umich: I have put your suggestions on my list. I will most likely implement the first point, probably the second too but I am not sure yet about the third. Note that all updates will take some time because I am pretty tied up…

@mark: I was waiting for the hassel with the one menu to come up. I am not sure about that either and was hoping to add an option about this. But I am not able to figure out how I can control menu items in the main right-click menu. Sure, I can add …

yes, it does. Thanks! Nothing about the file and the line I guess? Usually FF also lists that. I will look into this for sure and follow up here on the forum. Just might take a while before I find the time.

hi Tom, I guess that the zotfile function crashes at some point after the pdf got moved but before the tag gets added (when a zotfile function crashes FF and Zotero are unaffected). That would explain why the tag is sometimes missing. Can you check …
-
@theed: I will think about your first and second point and might implement some changes in a future version. Probably not for 2.0 though. Meanwhile, you can move individual attachments by clicking on the attachment and not the zotero item. That shou…

@Jeff: Someone else reported problems with the scan reader function on windows. I will look into it but it probably is going to take some time. To help me pinpoint the bug, can you be very specific on what you are doing? Something like 1) Move file …
-
@theed: I will look into the first point. Just have to find a windows pc. About the second point: The foreground/background option is now hidden (you can access it through 'about:config' 'extensions.zotfile.tablet.mode'. 1 is background and 2 is for…

No one followed up on any of the bug reports so I assume that the problems are solved. I was going to move forward with zotfile 2.0 and submit it for review at mozilla. Just wanted to check in with the about 60 users of 2.0 whether they have any is…

@jones: When you use subfolders based on zotero collections, your 'Manage Att.' menu should look something like this: http://www.columbia.edu/~jpl2136/zotfile_files/subfolder.png (with the stuff below 'Move to Subfolder' reflecting the subfolder you…

@tom7320: You should take a look at the 2.0 beta: http://www.columbia.edu/~jpl2136/zotfile_200b3.xpi Someone else reported that files did not get renamed but I think I solved that problem. I am not sure right now what happens with the file in zotero…
-
@romanov-umich: That's currently not possible. I agree that it should though and I will add this option. Might take a while though. Meanwhile you could use the Zotero renaming rules but they don't allow you to use the volume...
-
@ zanger: I am not completely sure what you are doing so can you be more specific? How did you set up zotfile reader? Are you using the background mode? Are you using sub-folders and which option exactly (collection based or user-defined)? How did y…
-
@mat-in: Great! I have put all the stuff with some instructions in the zip file below. You should start with the 'read-me.txt' file. My compiling knowledge is very limited but let me know if you have questions or need some other files. http://www.…
-
@zeynep: well, that's essentially what zotfile reader and now the zotfile 2.0beta is doing (I would go for the 2.0beta). Or am I missing something? You can also batch move all your attachments...
-
@sidies: zotfile works with Zotero 3.0b, I am using it myself... the duplicates detection also works fine with it (in 3.0, the 'debugShowDuplicates' preference was removed). So it seems to be only a problem with the trial implementation in earlier …
-
Some bug fixes, code cleaning, and new features later... http://www.columbia.edu/~jpl2136/zotfile_200b3.xpi This should be much better! A saved search is also now created automatically (and can be done manually from the pref window). New Feature…
-
I finally decided to integrate zotfile and zotfile reader. You can download the first test version of this effort below. Another goal was to make things easier and reduce clutter. So I cleaned up the preference pane and integrated all zotfile funct…
-
I am integrating zotfile and zotfile reader right now and also make the preference pane much cleaner so that it should be easier to use and set up... I think that should easy a wider adoption... ps: Here is the first version: http://forums.zotero.o…

I don't think it's that easy or at least for someone who doesn't have compiling experience. It took me pretty long to get the mac version running (I don't have compiling experience). ajlyon already gave it a shot for linux and didn't succeed. He mig…
-
Annotation extraction is currently only supported on mac (for which you need to install a separate program from the zotfile preference pane). I neither have a linux nor a windows pc so that I rely on others to compile the extractions tools for these…
-
Here is a beta of the next version. A lot of the new features are currently only implemented as hidden options (accessible through 'about:config') and have not been tested thoroughly. So any reports about testing them (unsuccessfully OR successfully…
-
I have resolved some serious bugs in the annotation extraction tool (it didn't work with the updated pdf expert 3, for example) and added one feature (line breaks in note annotations now carry over from the pdf to the zotero note). The update mecha…

- 1280x800 (13 inch macbook) - yes, I mean the left column. But know I realize that it needs more space when you expand multiple subfolders. I also realized that (at least from my point of view) the behavior for selecting collections is not optimal.…

I have to say, the new library website is great!! Here are some comments after playing with the new library website: - I would like some way to enforce one row per zotero item. On my laptop, most items go over two rows for one or two words in the t…
-
@mronkko: Skipping items with two or more attachments is actually super easy. You just have to change one line in the 'getSelectedAttachments' function (in zotfile.js). Change for (var j=0; j < attachments.length; j++) attIDs.push(attachments[j]…
-
It's there for sure (at least right now)... I see it and just tried at another computer... Maybe the site is cached on your computer... (my ftp client is making problems right but i will try to provide another link later)
-
mmmh, I am almost sure that the version was there... Anyways, I uploaded it again: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/zotfile/versions/ Let me know if it disappears. Then I will upload the xpi file somewhere else until the problem with…
