It is possible (and I don't know without further testing) that the Scrivener editor instead of Word could be configured to achieve this required separation of Chapters and bibliographies. Scrivener .. http://literatureandlatte.com/ .. is designed t…

I must agree. I cannot find any method in Zotero stand alone to choose the target collection (or sub-collection) to save an item from the browser. The saving goes into last highlighted collection. A menu similar to bookmark saving would be usefu…

I have also tried papermachines plugin but it does not meet my requirements. .. in an ideal world .. would be a recommendation engine that queries Google Scholar using the existing references in a library, suggesting new ones based on what's alread…

@gurdas I am learning more about translators as I read the docs. One wild idea I have parked is to use Zotero to extract training corpus to be injected into IBM Watson. i.e. the training corpus is a collection of items in Zotero. About 500-1000 …

I'm still experimenting on how to create collection children nodes in exported json to be compatible with D3.js json input as posted earlier. i.e. to place child collections in an array. "children": [{ ... }] Meanwhile, to "beautify" the export…

@laurence.diver Thank you for that translator script as a baseline for developing other ideas for navigating Zotero libraries. I had been trying to parse the export output files from existing translators (e.g. Zotero RDF) not realising that a custo…

(a) Protocol is to refrain from using CAPITALISED words in posts. (b) You need to supply more information on your OS, Firefox version and Zotero version (c) Try pasting "Installation could not be completed because an error occurred. Please ensure …

I have recently been diving inside Zotero stand alone code so I will give you some guesses on how to customise your version. Caveat: I am only a Zotero user, not on the developer team. Assuming that you have Zotero installed in a location such as…

You could try an alternative PDF annotator. As I wrote earlier I found that ZotFile extracts annotations from Foxit Reader. https://www.foxitsoftware.com/products/pdf-reader/ I use Zotero stand alone on Ubuntu. A bit of tweaking of mime types wa…

On the subject of upgrading the notes editor I have documented my recent experiences here (including starting with reference to above 2009 thread). https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/zotero-dev/nmtCLEb9zLA https://forums.zotero.org/discussion…

@Dan This may not be the appropriate thread to discuss this but as I explained I have been testing out some ideas by just unpacking zotero.jar and hacking notes editor (as a convenient entry into Zotero). I found this to be a very quick method for…

@Rintze, I don't have in mind developing Electron based plugins (at least not yet) but instead breaking into (hacking) the existing zotero.jar structure. i.e. a hybrid of existing Zotero + Electron. That is the theory. I'll let you know later if …

@Rintze, thanks for that tip. I think I'll start now developing in Electron.

Thanks. Further reading unearthed this explanation of deprecation ... https://github.com/willsALMANJ/Zoterodactyl https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/zotero-dev/yy4-q_ZUA4M So all roads now lead to stand alone.

@adamsmith wrote ... "I'd also say that making the add-on work with Zotero 5.0 might not be a great investment since it's fairly likely that Zotero will switch to a Standalone-only model some time in the not-so-distant future, and the add-on as it …

@bwiernik - No, I'm talking about external tools which do not require any internal coding of Zotero (or other such GUI's automated). The choice of automation tool is influenced to a degree by the host (Windows, Linux, Mac) but I can point to some I…

In the absence of an internal solution perhaps you can apply automation scripting to the Zotero GUI?

I will experiment with ZotFile 5.0 on my Zotero 4.0.29.10 stand-alone until Zotero 5.0 is ready. I have one opening question for ZotFile version 5.0 development. When capturing highlighted text sections and associated notes is it possible to captur…

Zotero users might find Hugo add-on very useful for searching within collection documents. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hugo/?src=cb-dl-toprated Results open in browser sidebar.

All have key options to launch Zotero so a workflow can be easily scripted. In Ubuntu Firefox, Zotero is launched from Ctrl+Shift+Z keys. Presumably these keys differ across clients so there could be a simple pre-test to establish each student's c…

You might find Sikuli Slides useful for such "automation" of a Zotero workflow. http://slides.sikuli.org/ Basically you first need to capture images which are the targets for the automation script. I use a Firefox add-on QSnap which does this quit…

FloatNotes does have a sync feature. Look at Tools > FloatNotes > Preferences Enable synchronisation (requires Firefox Sync). Of course each client Firefox needs FloatNotes add-on installed. .... If you prefer to roll your own I suspect t…

You can achieve first feature by using Firefox add-on FloatNotes. This add-on overlays notes on web pages (but not PDF files).
