  • If that's what it's supposed to say, I didn't catch that. It just says that they are shown in the item list, not that they are displayed within the title column. For coloured tags, the text is clear: "Colored tags appear as small colored squares ne…
  • @poettli, thanks for sharing that link. Yes, adding the information to that section would be a good place to add the info. Maybe something like "Emoji tags appear next items' titles in the center pane."
  • OK, that explains things. Thank you. Maybe that information could be added to https://www.zotero.org/support/collections_and_tags?
  • OK, that makes sense. I suppose that my tag doesn't have a colour, then. Why did I think it does? Because it is shown as part of the title (in the title column) and my understanding is that for tags to be shown there, they have to have a colour. I…
  • I realize I wrote my post too hastily. The problem is not in the first step (which my screenshot shows), but in the second: https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u107415/8w5nau1gx6b1gyo23da5.png There is no "Remove Color" option.
  • I have an issue that may be related: according to the Zotero documentation (https://www.zotero.org/support/collections_and_tags), "You can remove a color from a tag by right-clicking, choosing 'Assign Color…', and clicking 'Remove Color'", but when …
  • So is https://gitlab.com/GullumLuvl/bibloids still the (best) only approach to writing metadata from zotero into the actual pdf document?
  • @dstillman I sent the document to the support email address. @grahamperrin The title of the book is "Analyzing Causual Conversation" by Suzanne Eggins and Diana Slade.
  • Ha! Removing the quotation marks yields the same results as quick search with quotation marks. - Very confusing. So, advanced search is using quite a different search logic than quick search and is not so advanced after all, in that it takes every…
  • Thanks for explaining the meaning of "Everything". Based on that, your suggestions makes sense (though it would obviously be nice to have the "everything" option also in advanced search). Unfortunately, the result is not as expected: https://s3.ama…
  • Thanks for clarifying this! It looks like I can adopt the code from ”Example: Item Field Changes” on the API page you linked to. Make NewValue dynamic, based on the Created time in the extra field, and it should work. If ”Date Added” uses ISO format…
  • I would also love to have the original year as a column in the list pane. Or rather: A consolidated column that shows the original year if available, otherwise the year... BetterBibtex does an excellent job in recognising "2014 [1897]" as year and …
  • It follows the system language/region, not any custom system date format. If the language is set to "English (US)" and/or the region is set to United States, it will use the US format. If you don't want to adjust your system settings, you can overri…
  • I tried using Zotero-Chatpdf and it is extremely buggy and basically unusable (very weird stuff going on, such as flickering UI elements and the modal sticking to your mousepointer so that the only way to get back to normal operation is to disable t…
  • Two things mostly: 1. Open in my TTS reader app 2. Open in Adobe Acrobat to remove cover page and fix page labels
  • I’m not aware of a plugin for Claude but there are several for ChatGPT. The most usable one (according to me) is called ARIA.
  • @jeapordy I actually like that the abstract has been separated from the bibliographic information and placed further down. So, I think the takeaway is that users have different preferences regarding the ordering of the items, which is why it makes s…
  • For me too, the first thing I bumped into after upgrading was also that the citation key moved down. I figured that others will have noticed that too and so it was. Thanks for bringing this up @tom_mclean. Looking forward to moving the citation ke…
  • Here is what has been met with "we can add that": - Markdown - mark Zotero staff, or maybe even subject-matter experts for particular topics ("badges") - better search - image uploading - featured answers - thumbs up - add a line to the notificati…
  • Interesting. Do you know what the rationale of those styles is, for discouraging ibid (and thereby encouraging repetitive references, even within the same paragraph, if I understand you correctly? Or is it just the use of the abbreviation "ibid" th…
  • > you'll have to at some point either believe Zotero devs when they say they have evaluated discourse and don't like it for your purposes I don't think anyone is in doubt about whether the people running this forum like discourse or not. They do…
  • I was just using these examples to show that the claim "the notification system works" is untenable. I don't delete any emails and none of the notifications that I get from the Zotero forum have so far been classified as spam, so it is very unlike…
  • > I don't know why you didn't see the notification The problem is that I didn't get an email. When you say "notification", do you mean "notification without email" or something? If you are saying that the system sent me an email for that @-men…
  • @ford17 Why would you want to duplicate your attached files? To me, that strategy is a recipe for disaster (or at least confusion). Anyway, from what I can see, the only way to achieve that would be to manually create a new attachment > @haug, …
  • On Discourse it is transparent when you get notified (even vBulletin (or was it phpBB?) tells you that you won't get any more notifications for that thread until you visit it.) and on Discourse you can choose for every topic whether you want to get …
  • Adding to the wish list: - backlinks - ability to reply to specific comments - ability to select text that you want to respond to which will automatically be quoted in your reply - quotes from forum posts include a link to the source - ability to qu…
  • Yes, of course, if the admins of this forum don't see the benefits of migrating, then that is the main reason why it wont happen. But I wont assume that until they say that.
  • I assume that one of the big things that is holding back devs from migrating the forum is that it requires some work. Even finding out what exactly would need to be done is work and I can see how that keeps getting pushed down the list of priorities…
  • being able to search collections would be really great. If a genuine search for collection is not a priority, perhaps it would be possible to modify the advanced search function so that it is possible to search for items whose collection contains …
  • Indeed! Easy solution that I shall try to remember. (Searching "Everything" is a bit misleading in that respect.) Thanks for your assistance!
