  • Some of those abilities already exist in some form: 1. You can long-push the collections on the left pane and get the context menu, which includes Download Attachments. Seems to also work for "All Items". I also remember seeing in the Forums that t…
  • When you left-click on the highlight and hit ctrl/cmd-C, it copies the text (with quotation marks around, as you would while citing scientific text). You can click and drag the annotation to an external editor to copy similarly. And as you discovere…
  • I should have explained better. If you drag your mouse over text (previously highlighted with a color) *while* hitting shift, it select the text, not the color highlight. Then you can ctrl-C/command-C (Win/Mac) or right-click on the selected text, w…
  • Hit shift when trying to highlight text already colored in the PDF reader.
  • No problem. I think most of these issues will be resolved when Zotero turns on metadata updating (which is apparently already implemented and may come relatively soon).
  • @mgrelon But you are right. It does not auto-update an item, unless you change something in the item, or add it as a new item from a source that does not provide PMID/PMCIDs. I see this is mostly useful at the moment of adding new items or updating…
  • I just checked the auto key, and it works for me. Within a few seconds of deleting PMID and PMCIDs of any item from the Extra field, they get repopulated. As a quick sanity check, you are looking at the "Extra" field when you said "They are not in …
  • You can manually add PMID and PMCID to the Extra field like this: PMID: 29377013 But if you are already saving from Pubmed, these are auto-populated, so you have to do nothing. If you have items without PMID/PMCIDs, and want them added without typi…
  • The item fields (like Extra) are in the column on the right-hand side. If you are using the Turkish-localized version, it would be the İlave field under the Bilgi tab.
  • @nbzy1995 What do you mean by "many basic tools"? I use Zotero's pdf reader for annotation, which works fine. You may get more help if you stated what basic tools you need for reading and annotating. This is the place to make feature requests, and s…
  • Attachments aren't cited. Items are. Deleting an attachment under an item should not affect any of your citations in your word processing documents. You can place many attachments under an item in Zotero, delete them, move them and remove them.
  • On an up-to-date Mac (M1), I can't reproduce it either. Getting the item+pdf via DOI. PDF opens fine whichever way I open it. I vaguely remember Dropbox not liking accented characters from Zotero in filenames a long time ago. That has long been res…
  • Assuming you are using the desktop app, left-click on the highlight and hit delete on your keyboard. You can also right-click on the highlight, and choose "Delete" at the bottom of the color list in the context-menu that appears. Make sure you are …
  • Oops, I was logged into Transifex, hence the link is working for me. You need to get a Transifex account, and then go to the Zotero page, I think. Or try this, https://explore.transifex.com/zotero/zotero/
  • Would you consider joining the Czech translation team for Zotero? It appears they have fallen a bit behind (15% of strings not translated). I do not know how quickly they respond requests to join as a member, but if they do, corrections are not hard…
  • To be accurate, an item can be in multiple collections. That does not make it separate items at all. It actually makes sense that a user would want to associate one single item with multiple headings, topics, etc. The problem is that you may actual…
  • I think the same has been happening to me within the last year. After I grab an item, I usually add it to additional relevant collections. A fraction of the time, the drag-and-drop action to additional collections results in a jump to the new collec…
  • I can confirm that there is some odd behavior here: Copying from Word to the Zotero Note Editor converts tabs to spaces on a Mac, but they are conserved if copied to TextEdit. TextEdit (plain or rich text) to Zotero Note Editor does preserve the tab.
  • The database will sync, even if you don't have Zotero Storage. Your attachment files will not sync through Zotero. But the symlinking strategy does allow your Storage folder/attachment files to sync between your computers. The annotations on those a…
  • That's not a particularly large library. https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/86136/how-big-can-a-library-get
  • Select All under Edit works when you click on any of the fields in the Info pane. I think it is only intended for selecting text from these fields. Not sure why, especially when the ctrl-A shortcut on items does work.
  • Also for Q1, read this short page: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/transferring_a_library (which includes Sync as the easiest option as bwiernik mentioned) Google doc files should stay linked if you open them in a browser on another computer (i.e…
  • Did you try turning on the Styles pane from the ribbon? Only some styles are shown in the ribbon above (and Bibliography is not there), but I can see Bibliography when I look at a list of all styles in the Styles Pane, and modify Bibliography as I l…
  • even if I change the journal name to 'Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America', Zotero still cannot handle it correctly for New Phytologist. For this, did you try hitting the Refresh button in the Zotero plugi…
  • Welcome to Zotero! This is the first line on PNAS' Author's page: "Submit to the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) and have your research discovered by millions of researchers in the Biological, Physical, and Social Sciences." …
  • I suggest you complain to PNAS that they have their journal name wrong throughout their entire webpage and how they register it, if this is a problem for you. They may disagree. For a solution within Zotero, you can do the manual change, or maybe s…
  • I believe Zotero is simply respecting the data source here. PNAS, on its webpage, calls itself with the shorter form (without the USA). If you look at the Page Source of their paper pages, the metadata there is also the short form. If you enter the…
  • I have 198 PNAS articles in my Zotero library all with the correct name that disagrees with that. What shows as the publication term in Zotero items is a function of where you saved the data from. All my entries are from PubMed, which has high-qual…
  • Saying this as a Zotero user for 15 years... Computer (and citation) illiteracy among *graduate* students (and probably undergrads) and researchers is a real issue, and anything that can improve the user interface and onboarding would really help wh…
  • That's to all be expected. Did you see this before switching formats/word processors? https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/moving_documents_between_word_processors and make sure to read this too: https://www.zotero.org/support/google_docs#collaborat…
