I noticed that the blog post / web page items don't have "organisation", and in the list 'publisher' remains empty. (While for other item types the 'publisher' column in the list is sometimes filled with another appropriate field, e.g. institution).…

Another one: - Ability to drag links from a web page onto a zotero item, to create attachments. E.g. here, https://creativecommons.org/2017/01/20/state-department-publishes-open-licensing-playbook-federal-agencies/, the connector gives me the blog p…

Hi @dstillman - just checked this in the latest beta, and it's still not working for Chrome... Should it be working?
-
@adamsmith - thank you so much, very helpful to know!
-
To add: - move between collections (rather than copy + then delete) - extract of date from PDF metadata (see other post)
-
@fmuro makes a very important point - expressing appreciation for the great work that is being done! THANKS from me also!
-
I agree with Mark about the additions, but not the removal/renaming of report :)
-
+1 for preprint and +1 for a separate image item type. Is there a guide in the Zotero help pages somewhere for "I have an item that type X, how do I put it into Zotero?" That would say: "Posters? Use Presentation, add type: 'poster'"?
-
Great, that's excellent!

What would be a sure-fire way of including a DOI, so that the PDF recogniser recognises it? I tried to get this recognised, https://zenodo.org/record/1195743, but it didn't work.
-
Just adding note from https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/8014/no-doi-field-for-books here: DOIs for all items are planned.
-
Ah right - thanks for clarification, so it's by design. Btw. I noticed this as I was trying to add a number of webpages from a set of URLs, so yes, at times people may want to add manually, rather than going via a browser (especially in low bandwi…

Thanks, for the response - good to hear, and thanks for correction as well!

Cross linking to this discussion on field types: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/15636/changes-to-fields-and-item-types-for-zotero-5-1/ Given that the DOI is used by Zotero for retrieving metadata, and given that a DOI is an object identifier …

Amazing - thank you for that tip - I had not realised that the API was read/write, but it makes total sense (at least with hindsight!) - had a quick look at pyzotero, and it will solve - thank you! Points about UI appreciated too - doesn't look lik…

I'd be happy to contribute to a crowd funding drive (= contribute financially but also help organise). Clearly it needs to be done so that it doesn't overload the developers, and perhaps some extra capacity on core tasks could be built in, to reduce…
-
A command line API would be even better. The only reason I was interested in the js api is that it allows the creation of multiple items, and I occasionally need to create sets of items programatically. Why would a "duplicate" on the saved search b…
-
Ah, I see that's helpful! Regarding js - sorry I meant in Zotero 5, which you have answered, thanks! Would it be possible to build a plugin with the sole purpose to expose the JavaScript API for testing? Any thoughts on duplicating saved searches?
-
Hi Mark, thanks! I'm not suggesting that the list would inform priorities for the existing devs. It would be more of a case to say: This is on the road map (soon), but this is further away, or not on the roadmap at all - in which case we can try to…
-
Thanks for the posts - very interesting. Is there a "wish list" somewhere? We could have some community discussion around new features, and then see what's on the roadmap, and what needs more funding? I'll start a new thread with this as well (https…
-
Ah yes - indeed. Sorry, I was confused between OSF projects (that only have one DOI, and DOIs for files within projects aren't available) and OSF preprints, where you have a DOI per preprint (... which of course can be used in projects, and thus tha…
-
> Rather than researchgate, I would recommend http://osf.io for a non-commercial place to get a DOI for free. Btw. just to add: it seems that osf.io only offers a DOI per community, rather than per publication.
-
Great - thank you for the heads up!
-
Another question: Given that you're inviting people to use the beta, I assume it's (reasonably) 'safe for work'? We're working on a literature review at the moment, so it may not be a good idea to try the beta at this stage (on our main library)? At…

| (File hashes are often useless due to watermarking, though.) Yes, agreed, e.g. for journal papers. However, what I've got in mind is grey literature in the international development space, where there's only one version, with a canonical URL (or …
-
That sounds great! I wonder what to do with PDFs that aren't recognised. My understanding is that recognition is "first few pages of text using extraction algorithms and known metadata from CrossRef, paired with CrossRef and ISBN lookups in the cli…
-
Ah yes - thanks. Though I would like the reverse process: Suppose the file has come from local disk, and doesn't have a URL, then how do I add one? I suppose locating the documents online, and then re-adding from the online source is possible, but …

+1 to this - is this available yet?
