The trash only contains items that are deleted, not collections. (This is because collections are essentially virtual folders.) The items that were in your subcollection will still exist in your library; but you will have to recreate the subcollecti…

@frank, I understand that it is complicated and certainly didn't want to retract from that. I was attracted by semantic transparency first, and only secondarily by styling possibilities with CSS — much like what Dan says above.

and is only relevant for HTML output. I would submit that "only relevant for HTML output" is actually quite a big relevancy. The easier it becomes to cite stuff from within Zotero libraries across the web, the more important it becomes to present th…

The page frame loads okay indeed, it's just that the jquery wheels spin for a long time on first load. That gives me the feeling it is loading/checking a lot of data behind the scenes.

* in Library, date field is not standardized, giving me every variation from 2010-09-21 to 2011/07/26 to 11/2010 to 2010-07. Probably something to be fixed together with sorting by date. The display issues remind me a lot of the date field problems …

@MG6, you don't have to have Zotfile changing the filenames; you can also let Zotero handle that (see Zotfile preferences).
-
* My Library is pretty slow on each first load (could it have to do with size? I have 40+ collections, 80+ tags, 6000+ items). Perhaps some options for a default view would help here, for instance: 10 or 20 most recently added items, some Tag, or so…

@ragan, also note that you can already do #1 by starting your search with " (a double quote mark).

Also always do notify the makers of EndNote of these problems. It is a real issue for their paying customers. As their customer, you have the right to ask them to deliver at least the service of consistent and standard export formats. (Ask your libr…

Well, for instance because: 1. There is no guarantee that PDF filenames are unique 2. PDFs are not the only attachments; web snapshots consist of multiple files and for these separate folders are needed (and if you search around the forums and the d…

Nope, it isn't. Though if it's just for sharing your personal library, you can already make that available on the server. See the Settings > Privacy page on your profile.

Came across this cross-site scripting vulnerability reported for ZotPress 2.6 — can I assume that this has been fixed in newer versions? The proof of concept given doesn't work for me in Zotpress 3.0 (or whatever is the newest version).
-
Sleek! A question, now that I'm seriously trying it out: what happens with the ordering when I do a "select all items in history?" All seems scrambled.
-
Ah, yes I would appreciate a simple interface for user-defined folders in Zotfile Reader. I've been using the item type tag for folders, but obviously that is not ideal, and quite limited.
-
I see you point. I was thinking of a personal library. Collaboration situations are a different matter indeed. You can't force everyone to use a brand new reference manager if they're used to working with good, manipulable files in folders.
-
Felipe, is it possible that you are trying to accomplish something in your file manager (with the PDFs) that might actually better be done in Zotero (with the database of bibliographic items)? I also once had a huge collection of PDFs in folders, r…
-
Great, that feed URL works. Given that it works, I assume it should be no problem in principle for ZotPress to retrieve items from that group using that key. It would seem that I ran into a current limitation of ZotPress — according to the FAQ it on…
-
Nope, not yet unfortunately — see related threads here and here.
-
Hm, this does look quite strange. I just tested it with some items in my library, and those journal articles that have a "date accessed" field in Zotero come up with this "cited" date in the bibliography. I guess the style should be adjusted so th…
-
What do you mean by "cited date"?
-
Well, there is no way to automate copying over items from your personal library to a group library. But if syncing is what you want, why don't you do just that? Items in your personal library are synced to the Zotero server too, if you enable syncin…

Is it possible that the plugin doesn't work in FF3.6? I don't get anything showing up. (ah, reading through the thread, I see that you noted this). Guess I have to wait until I'm home again to see what those arrows look like...
-
What does your folder structure look like? Can you replicate it using the Zotfile renaming and folder system? If not, I'm afraid you're asking for functionality that is not there yet. Zotfile either (1) organises your PDFs itself or (2) imports them…
-
Cool, thanks! (I do hope, for aesthetic reasons, that you've picked one of the arrow pairs I suggested. I find the current arrows somewhat spartan and unsophisticated, even if turned. The proportions aren't right.)
-
Try the preferences: Gear menu > Zotfile preferences. There you can conveniently set all options.
-
Hey Frank, just want to know whether you saw my proposal. No rush though.
-
On the main topic, I agree that a drag-and-drop interface would be highly desirable. I've observed many Zotero newbies dragging items (for adding to the citation box and for ordering them within that box) only to find that they, huh? whats this? oh!…
-
@bengilna, that's a very different issue. Please open another thread for your issue where you document what you did to get that (include Zotero version and citation style used).
-
Here's a useful thread: scan for missing attachments. Including a script by krueschan which I haven't tested for a long time, but which might still work. Though I'm not sure whether it can handle linked files as opposed to attachment. Also see this …

References in tables are a notorious problem in Open Office and co., for reasons Zotero cannot really help.
