Android version of Firefox does not support XUL, wich is used for defining user interfaces. (http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/10/15/mozilla-set-to-ditch-xul-in-firefox-for-android-in-favor-of-a-native-ui-better-performance/) For this and many othe…

Posted an update and a link to screenshots here http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/20588/ipad-application/#Comment_111621

I have posted some description and screenshots of the applications here: http://sblsrv.org.aalto.fi/zotpad/ (I was a bit constrained with time, so sorry for the typos.) The release of ZotPad now depends on the following things: -Fixing one small …

I will be posting more info into that thread tonight including screenshots etc.

This is called name disambiquation. It can be a confusing feature that many would like to be disabled. The solution to this problem is to check that the author first name is always written in the exact same way. Also, it can be disabled on a per-sty…

1) Any supported browser. This includes Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. 2) This is done automatically. You can even use standalone and firefox plugin in parallel. 3) Yes. You can do that by setting up a new firefox profile. There are probably instructi…

The collections are not same as folders. In fact, they work exactly same way as tags: an item can belong to several collections but does not need to belong to a a collection. If you want to assign a tag to an item, just drag it over a tag instead …
-
Would this be the same as being able to search by parent collections as well? Are you aware of the recursive collections preference? It might do what you are explaining, but I am not sure. http://www.zotero.org/support/hidden_prefs

39) Provide a notification that item attachments were not transfered when dragging an item with attachment to a group library where attachments are not in use instead of silently discarding the dragged attachments. https://github.com/zotero/zotero/…

On Mac OS X 10.6 spotlight is a really good way to find PDFs, but it will just show you which files match. Then when you open them in preview, the matches are highlighted. But you still need to open one file at a time. I have not tested Papers much.
-
Zotero does not show the actual PDF text that matches. I wish that it did, but this would be very difficult to implement in a way that would work on Mac, Linux, and Windows.
-
I agree that the user interface could be more clearly indicate that the links are tabs instead of bread crumbs. How would you like group settings to work when the library type is changed? There are many ways how this would work, for example: 1) Do …

You can delete a citation by highlighting it and pressing delete. This may or may not work depending on what exactly you want to do. You need to be more specific about your question to get a better response.

Zotero will construct a full text index of N first pages of the documents. N is maybe around 10. Someone who knows better than I can give you a more accurate answer. If crashing is a problem for you, you should import the PDFs in smaller batches. M…

I can reproduce this problem with the steps described above, but I am not sure that this is a bug at all. The problem here seems to be that when you create a public library, it defaults to "File Editing ": "No group file storage" in the library s…

As you suggest yourself, you should post to zotero-dev to get help about development related issues.

Undo feature is generally very difficult to implement properly if it has not been built into the data model of a software. Zotero does not have undo built into the data model, so including something like this would be a major change. To contribute t…

The first version will be a one-way street because Zotero does not support file uploads from third party clients. Once this is added, I it will be a two-way system. How this will work is that ZotPad will register itself as a receiver for PDF files …
-
How iOS works is that Applications can register as being able to receive documents of certain type sent from other applications. ZotPad will send PDF documents to any application that can receive PDF files. (It would be more difficult to try to re…

I do not think that that is necessary, but if you want to, use XML style if available.

Sorry, I meant to write http://pastebin.com/ pastepad does not share pastes with others.

Just a short update. I will work on this some between christmas and new year, and hope to submit the app for review once Apple app store staff come back from their christmas break. The app now has most of the "difficult" parts implemented now, but…

Copy paste the content of the whole CSL file there so that people can take a look at your modification to see why it does not work.

I am not sure how CSL localization works, but you can help the people that do to help you by posting the entire CSL file after your modification online: http://pastepad.net/
-
I doubt that anyone disagrees that it would be nice that there would be an easy to use user interface for editing CSL styles. The problem is CSL is quite complex making an easy to use editor difficult and time consuming to program. Since the CSL pro…

The easiest way to copy the citations is to drag and drop all the citations from one group to the other and then sync. For Zotero 2.X you would then need to create the collections in the new library manually, but for 3.0 beta you can drag and drop c…

The current development version supports offline use for reading. There is still a couple of days worth of work left, but it is possible that we can submit ZotPad to app store before the end of the year. The first release will not support annotati…

About 36: Manually added attachments should not be autorenamed, because there are valid reasons to keep the original names. For example, I have several books that I have scanned and stored as separate chapters. For example one of my items has the…

Zotero is coded in Javascript. The GUI part would not be the biggest problem here in terms of coding effort. To get the ordering to synchronize with Zotero server would be the hardest part. I personally consider this nice to have feature, but not …
