Oh, I see. So if the parent item has been modified (or if it was added by someone else), the only way to add a pdf attachment from another library is to navigate to the pdf in finder/explorer and drag it onto the parent item?

It's not working for me: https://share.cleanshot.com/l1PxRL

I'm the owner of the library, so no problem there. Nut this might be it: > you can't drag the same item twice So how do I copy an attachment from an item in one library to an existing copy of the item in another library?
-
OK, thanks for clarifying. I'm not currently on campus, but I connected to the campus net via VPN to see if it changes anything but it doesn't. So I guess it's Elsevier, once again, that's making access unnecessarily difficult. I believe there is …

We are already sharing some pdfs, so I assume the settings are correct: Group Type Public, Closed Membership Group Library Anyone can view, only members can edit So maybe I'm doing the copying wrong? I just drag the item from my main library to th…

Excellent! No. 1 is what I was looking for. I had a vague memory of that feature but couldn't find it. When I check again now, I notice that some records have this option in their right-click menu and others don't (even though all of them have a URL…

Pcloud is notorious for its badly performing WebDAV interface. I have been struggling with this for years (I have a lifetime plan, otherwise I would have left pcloud long ago) not with Zotero, but in a different context. I have to say, though, that …

Excellent! You guys rock!

Excellent! Because if it hadn't shown that screen, I'd have guessed it was a sync problem.
-
OK, good to know that this likely was not an issue with the app (and that we still squashed a bug by the by). I wonder, though whether the app could issue different error messages for 4xx errors vs a corrupted file? Or is that the bug you fixed?
-
I agree that the shift-doubleclick (or shift-Enter) is worth noting here. I was not aware of it and it almost solves the issue on desktop (however: I would have expected the pdf to open in another Zotero reader tab, but on my Mac it opens in Previe…
-
Yes, when the problem occurred, I was able to access the file from desktop Zotero via the same WebDAV. I also did try to check directly on the storage and I did see a zip-file with a last modified date that corresponded to when I saved the file on d…

@michalrentka do you mean the provider? That would be pcloud.

@dstillman linked here from this thread about split viewing pdfs: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/405162#Comment_405162 but I don't think this thread is quite about the same issue. As I understand it, this thread is about a technically …

I guess the feature request should be something like "skip to references in pdf" or "allow split view of pdf", but I agree: this would be very useful. BTW: it's pertains not just to references but also endnotes. In the meantime, my workaround is to…

@michalrentka I use WebDAV storage.

I am having the same problem (ios 15.4.1) and I’m using v 1.0.2. My debug ID is: D2064589820

Linked files and ”storage files” (stored files) are not at all the same. See here: https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files#stored_files_and_linked_files

I asked the same question from a different angle here: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/95814/difference-between-using-webdav-and-e-g-dropbox So this is useful: > with WebDAV specifically (instead of Zotero Storage), some of the benefits of…

Thanks @martynas_b for clarifying where the tags are stored. Regarding your question: I am not 100 percent certain which pdf viewer I used for testing this. I was going back and forth between Preview and Highlights, so I think I tried it with both…
-
Oh, so the tags are only stored locally? I was assuming they were exported into some metadata of the pdf-comment or so. So if the tags are not saved to the pdf, that means that when I re-import the annotations, the tags are re-matched with the re-i…
-
Yes, in terms of protocols, that is obvious. But in order to store attachments on Dropbox & Co, it is not necessary to support their protocol because files can just be saved locally...

It looks like I found a work around via Alfred using the Zothero workflow (see https://github.com/deanishe/zothero) It would be great, though, if the filter term could be persisted across collections. If clicking on a different collection for some …
-
Oh, I see. In that case, a possible improvement would be to keep the search/filter terms while changing the collection. That way, you can easily apply the same filter to different collections.
-
I completely understand why zotero strongly discourages keeping your data directory in the cloud. The time that otherwise goes to support users with corrupted databases is better used to deal with other issues. Having said that, I would like to bet…

you also get the "date added" when exporting from citavi (via the citavi backup file, as described here: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/import-from-citavi) See also here: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/74658/failure-to-import-xml-file-from…

> relations, I'm fairly certain that's a general problem on Zotero import, nothing to do with this specific translator. So this is something that needs to be fixed in Zotero itself? Am I right in assuming that this wont happen in the near future?
-
Thanks for the clarifications. I might give this a try once the broken relations import is fixed. Since I have almost no programming knowledge (especially not in javascript), so I would need to start from code that works. Or do you understand which …

>The importer should already preserve relations This is excellent news! How about the direction of the relation (which item is referring to which)? Is that also preserved? Another challenge I encountered is that all my most important notes/anno…

> For the files, not item 4. here: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/import-from-citavi Oh, sorry about that. I had seen and followed that previously but somehow I forgot about it again. My import using the modified Citavi 5 XML.js also seems …
