Could you post a screenshot with the console open? From the sound of it, it’s most likely caused by a browser plugin or some security software on your computer. Does it work if you use a different browser?
-
It usually means that the web library is loading, but some data is taking longer to download. Try reloading the page, and if that doesn’t help, see if any errors are printed to the browser console.

In your screenshots, your Attachment Info pane is collapsed, so it’s very hard to understand what the problem is. If you select one of the attachment items and expand the pane (the little downward-pointing chevron next to the “Attachment Info” heade…

Thank you for reporting the issue. This should be fixed in the latest beta.
-
There appears to be a bug in the current beta regarding the recognition of changes to authors. Thanks for letting us know — we’ll fix it.
-
Only the primary file is renamed - the one that would open if you double-clicked on the parent item.
-
Parsing of the date depends on the language Zotero is configured to use. You can change it in Zotero preferences. For example, setting it to “English (UK)” will parse the date as dd.mm.yyyy.
-
These features (except for the first one which isn't planned) have already been implemented and are coming in Zotero 8. You can try it for yourself — it’s available at https://www.zotero.org/support/beta_builds. The database structure is unaffected …

Use this button: https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u3978561/drqewo6tzdoajhbh6l66.png If you’re on a mobile/tablet, this icon appears at the bottom of the screen when at least one item is selected. The web library can currently gen…

How many collections are there in that library? Could you please load the web library with the browser console opened, the Network tab selected, so that 429 errors (and the URLs it tries to load) are visible, and post a screenshot here? Again, sto…

The web library is never “blocked” and will work regardless of your storage status. The only thing that storage is relevant for is file syncing — if you don’t have enough quota, some files might not sync to the web library. The screen you’re seeing…

There is no “chat” in Zotero. You can invite other people to group libraries on the groups page (there is a link at the top of this page), and once you both configure syncing on your machines you will be able to see and manage the shared library.
-
Since you’ve confirmed that the data is not present in the web library, the problem is on the device where the data originated. Follow the debug steps listed at https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/changes_not_syncing

It should be possible to upgrade a MacBook from 2016 to macOS 12 without any third-party patches. See if you can find your particular model here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/103260. With macOS 12, you will be able to upgrade both Chrome and Zot…

That’s worth considering. That being said, it’s possible with the current system — you can use match to check the content of one field and then decide to use it or fall back to another. Here is an example where journalAbbreviation is used if present…

Zotero Storage works on a subscription basis, similar to other services (Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.). You pay for a set amount of space and can use it during the active subscription period. If you don’t use all the space before your plan expires, …
-
I believe it’s the other way around. Desktop Zotero uses a more recent version of the .csl file responsible for how the citation appears, while the web library still uses an older version. I’ll let others comment on which one is valid and whether th…
-
I thought I could use \p{L} to include all unicode characters defined as letters, but it doesn't work. With the u included in regexOpts as you did (we will consider making this included by default), this template should work. In fact, I copy-pasted…

In Zotero for iOS, bibliography generation is accessible from the “share” icon when items are selected. The Android version of Zotero might not have this feature yet, but it’s coming soon.
-
In the web library, you can use this icon from the toolbar to generate a bibliography for selected items: https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u3978561/6yzc4ltmw7mbjo4z38iq.png This works regardless of whether you access the web libra…

You can disable dark mode for PDFs while keeping it for the app using the application menu: View → Use Dark Mode for Content. This will also disable inverted colours for images. Is there a plan to change this? Yes, the current beta supports customis…
-
Thanks for testing. We missed a case when there is only one library in that menu - should be fixed in the next Beta. Also added an icon for "New Collection".
-
There is currently no way to adjust what firstCreator takes into consideration; this is always the same as the Creator column you see in the items list. One way that could work in your specific case is to prepare the template in such a way that it …

In the web library, this function is available from the three-dot menu in the thumbnails view in the reader: https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u3978561/vlu88twcmsau7a4f7g8o.png
-
Yes, multiple improvements to the reader, including continuous scrolling for EPUBs, are coming soon to the reader in the web library.
-
This has nothing to do with Zotero. The behaviour you're seeing is caused by the XDG Desktop Portal, which attempts to sandbox an application's access to the filesystem. You’ll need to either configure this behaviour on your system or install the o…

Thank you for helping debug this issue. It appears there is a bug in date processing-we will look into fixing it. It would be very helpful to have access to the problematic .ris file. If possible, could you please send it to support@zotero.org with…
-
In the main web library view (not the reader view), if you click the cog icon next to the search input, there’s an option called "Use Dark Mode for Content" - make sure that’s unchecked. This option only applies if the web library is using dark mod…

How many items does this .ris file contain? Does the web library import some of the items when the error is displayed or none at all? When you import the file, are there any errors printed to the browser console (with the console open)? If you try…
