@pukeko.nz because the new notes editor is not html based it will be necessary to export the notes by generating a report. The saved report is html. I previously used Docear and have experimented with Freeplane since Docear was discontinued. I would…

Hi jsta. Your script would be very useful. Could you explain how to use it for a newbie?
-
All the best with you note-taking, Adam.
-
As you say, Adam, a major downside is that notes in Zotero are not plain text. Zotero has some advantages such as Open-source and cross-platform. Works very well on Linux, Mac, and Windows. Integration with LibreOffice, LyX, Word, and Google Do…

The regular search box will find notes to which you have added your own heading if you use "All Fields & Tags" to search for the heading. Another way to approach this would be if developers were able to add "Standalone Notes" as an Advanced Se…

Wow. You got it in one. I have been using espanso to paste templates into the note pane and I guess they are seen as one plain text paragraph despite all the blank space etc. Hang on ... now ... if each note is a paragraph, when a multi-note report …

Thank you for your quick reply! Yes, several hundred MB several times a day is less than optimal. I did have Duplicati set to back up to Jottacloud daily but I enabled their (pesky) two-factor authentication and I'm waiting to see if they will tell …

Great. It works! Thank you!
-
OK. Cheers. I'll put it out of my mind. Happy new year to you and yours!
-
Thanks Dan. Tried to reproduce but no luck. Is it OK to leave debug output logging on in case it does reoccur?
-
I am having a similar problem except that Advanced Search finds "Creator contains" perfectly well but does not find anything with "Creator is" - the drop-down under the box to enter Creator appears but is empty. Debug log ID: D483859753 Zotero 5.0…

Permissions were messed up on the MacBook. Had to deleted cache folders under /var/folders/ but not the zz folder itself. The issue is addressed on apple.stackexchange.com/questions/266821/how-can-i-fix-permissions-for-files-in-the-var-folders-zz

Hi Dan, Changing PDF setting to Preview and back to Skim had no effect. Config Editor value is extensions.zotero.fileHandler.pdf;/Applications/Skim.app I will try a system reboot. Thanks, Chris.

Hi Nelson. I think what you are describing is the functionality provided by Bibliographix. See http://www.bibliographix.de/ The software is provided free as is the code. Unfortunately it is only in German and lacks some of the capabilities of Zote…
-
Thanks for that clarification, Dan - and for the code providing the function :) It still seems that, assuming one uses ZotFile, in order to open the pdf at links (e.g. imported chapter headings), one will need to adjust the ZotFile advanced settings…

This thread on Stackexchange links to a script for helping with embedded notes: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/211428/need-script-to-automatically-export-skim-pdfs-with-embedded-notes/237587#237587
-
Zotfile advanced settings allow you to make Skim the default reader.
-
If you export a pdf With embedded notes from Skim these can be extracted by Zotfile. When I do this I add an _N to the end of the file name (so that it doesn't overwrite the original pdf), make sure it is saved in the storage folder it came from, ma…

Thanks, Dan. Working nicely with 219 now.

I get a blank page when I click "generate report from collection" but "generate report from items" works. Report ID: 681537030 Debug ID: D8407085 Zotero 5.0-beta.218+f2cc2204c Mac OS X 10.10.5
-
I would like to thank you, Dan, and all the rest of the team - and make a request: When zotero cannot locate an attachment (File Not Found) it gives the option to manually "Locate ..." Would it be possible to integrate this function with search tool…
-
Don't forget that some add-ons do not yet work with 5.0-beta. It may be better to test it with a new profile.
-
@emilianoeheyns My linux machine is still running Zotero 4.0.28 and has downloaded the server data which was uploaded by my mac running Zotero 5 beta. AFAIK the database can be moved between these systems using a USB stick, so one could revert back …

When you download RTF/ODF-Scan from https://github.com/Juris-M/zotero-odf-scan-plugin/releases/tag/v1.0.33 it will be in your Downloads folder. To "install from file" you may need to navigate to your Downloads folder to choose zotero-odf-scan-v1.0.3…
-
Right! Works after restart. Thanks.
-
Just installed Zotero 5.0 - looks great! Many thanks to all :->
-
OK. Thank you for that clarification. Looking forward to Zotero 5.0. Edited comments again.
-
Completely different from merging items. Edited my comments above so as to try not to spread "alternative facts."
-
Oh. I see from you reply above that I am misunderstanding the "merged object" - it appears to default to the most recently edited version. I guess it is only a "merged" object after manual merging (?). Still, when I am resolving conflicts I simply h…
-
I thought that the merged object algorithm is intelligent enough to always include all the information from both the local and remote versions. But is merely a view of the more recent of the two versions (remote or local). However, sometimes the loc…
