I would like to add another observation that may give a clue into teleporting issue. I was recently adding many PDFs to Zotero and organizing my collections. 1) I noticed sometimes I had a difficult time dragging and dropping PDFS into Zotero. Whe…

Edit 1 Zotero 5.0.66-beta.4+2f43ea82f. Debug ID: D1885338345 I can confirm I saw the teleportation of a collection into another collection. The collection "Polymers - Conductive polymers (1)" teleported and became a subcollection of the collect…

@AucMGris 1) You will need to configure zotero-collection-tracker plugin (collection-tracker.path) to save the log to a specific location. 2) I have been trying to replicate the issue of disappearing subcollections. It still hasn't happened to m…
-
I tried to replicate issues reported by @AucMGris and @shakyegg. My subcollections didn't disappear BUT I did notice that few of my subcollections were duplicated. If I close Zotero and reopen it, then the duplicated subcollections disappeared and r…

@dstillman That seems quite slow — testing here, I can import 90 items in 11 seconds. Does this computer have an SSD or a hard drive? We do have further speed improvements planned, though. Among other things, part of the import time is also takin…
-
@dstillman Awesome!!! Thank you very much for this long awaited new feature. I really appreciate your hard work!!! I tested out a fresh import from Mendeley with file handling set to "Copy files". The process ran pretty smooth, but took ~15-30min …

@StefanK1 I recently switched to Zotero from Mendeley, and initially I shared the same concerns as you. Below are my opinions regarding to your question. Decide if you want to want to store PDFs as "link to files" or "stored copy of files". With "…
-
@dstillman Sorry, don't mean to bump this thread. I was just wondering if the feature to have an option to 'store all files' during Mendeley migration will considered for implementation. If your team agrees, do you know if it will be happening in ne…
-
@dstillman Thanks for the clarification. Yes, I think giving an option to 'store all files' would be helpful so that users can decide if their priority is syncing or maintaining a folder hierarchy of attachments locally. This would benefit first t…
-
@dstillman @adamsmith In retrospect I realized that feature I am requesting is a very niche case to be considered as a core feature of Zotero. However, it be possible to incorporate this feature in the Mendeley import feature (https://forums.zotero…
-
How would that be different from just copying the group items to a folder in your personal Mendeley library first, as you did? I had a relatively small group library, so I manually created collections (folders) in My Library that reflected the coll…
-
@emilianoeheyns Wow, thank you very much for taking the effort to create this translator plugin. This is exactly what I was looking for. Although this translator is a pretty niche use case, I think many other users would find it beneficial. I have u…

@bwiernik Thank you for letting me know. You guys are doing a great job! I love Zotero! Thank you for all your efforts.

@adamsmith Thank you for letting me know. You guys are doing a great job! I love Zotero! Thank you for all your efforts.

@emilianoeheyns Thanks for all your help :)
-
@bwiernik @adamsmith Any plans of this feature being in the future roadmap? I think indicating which collections an item belongs to more visually apparent, through persistent highlight of collections, would be a great user interface improvement. …
-
@adamsmith Any chance my previous comment can be considered? Thanks :)
-
@bwiernik I looked in to ZotFile's "Send to Tablet" feature. It doesn't properly work. To maintain the hierarchy, I have to manually have to go through each collection (folder) and sub-collection (sub-folder). You can read more her: https://forums.z…
-
@bwiernik Just out of curiosity, how difficult would it be to write a Zotero plugin that would export a selected Library or Collection into the format of files in folders while maintaining the hierarchy? I think I can easily do it with Python by q…
-
@adamsmith Thanks you for response. 1) Zotero does not force user to rename the files. Under Edit >> Preferences >> General >> File Handling, I have the ability to disable "Automatically rename attachment files using parent metada…
-
@adamsmith I tested out your suggestion, however, it ZotFile did try to rename/move the files, but it only does it to one item even though I selected multiple items. ZotFile does recognize that I am trying to move/rename multiple items and it even g…
-
@emilianoeheyns You're correct, I must configure the "Linked Attachments Base Directory" before zotero-link-local-files plugin can silently make imports as a "Link to file".
-
@adamsmith Assume my library structure as show below. My Library ---- Folder A ------ Item n1 ------ Subfolder A1 ---------- Item n4 ---------- Item n5 ---- Folder B ------ Item n6 ------ Item n8 Under Tablet Settings I enabled the radio button th…
-
@ysayed Can you clarify how you did it using Zotfile? I have installed ZotFile and it seems I have to use the "Send to Tablet" feature. However, it won't properly create the hierarchical structure. I have manually go through each collection/sub-col…

@emilianoeheyns Its located under Edit >> Preferences >> General >> File Handling. https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/general

1) @emilianoeheyns thanks, I tested your plugin but files are still being attached as a copy instead of a link to file. I am using Zotero v5.0.55 and v5.0.1 of your plugin. 2) The checkbox in File Handling settings "Automatically attach associated…

@dstillman Any possibility of this feature being considered?
-
@dstillman I re-tested the migration with Zotero 5.0.49-beta.7+cfbb3d3d4, it worked very smoothly along with the star tags.
-
@dstillman I was able to smoothly migrate from Mendeley to Zotero 5.0.49-beta.5+2831e8be3. Feature request: If a Mendeley item contains a "Star", is it possible to automatically add a tag to all items containing a star during migration? Maybe th…

1) In regards to migrating group libraries in Mendeley. Is it possible to automate copying group library items to local library items prior to using Zotero for migrating? My entire Mendeley library resides as part of a group library, thus I was unab…
