  • Option 1: Yes, it could be current tab. If you want to do this for one item, you can already do so by right click -> View Online. Then download the file and use Zotfile to add it to the current item. This is three clicks and takes about the same …
  • I directed this request here because I thought that it was about the bookmarklet. There is currently no way to add any file from your iPad to your Zotero account. You currently have three ways to edit files on your Zotero account using iPad. 1) Se…
  • If you do not how to program, then how would you know that something is easy to do? For example, the step "open url" is not as easy as it seems. What would it mean, anyway? Option 1: "Open a tab, then load an ULR in that tab": When applied to mul…
  • I think that the way to go with the Android app is just to code it and sell it then. I do not see price as an issue 10 or 25 is a lot for an Android app, but it is not much if you consider it from other perspective: A piece of software that you use …
  • While fine in theory, I have some reservations about this feature. The main thing is that this sounds too complex for the typical user, so the effort for implementing this may not be justified considering the number of users who would potentially us…
  • If you want to work with a group library and value your time, you should really use the file storage service provides by Zotero. Other alternatives are to use ZotFile to rename and move the files to one folder, which can be a network drive. Some u…
  • Javis: I am not sure if you can rename a file without importing it, but I know that the following workflow is possible: 1) Import a file and rename it 2) Make the file a linked file by using the "Export to tablet" feature (You need to specify the t…
  • Sounds like some of these sources are in firstname - lastname format instead of using a single name filed. See the section "names" here http://www.zotero.org/support/getting_stuff_into_your_library#adding_items_by_hand
  • Depends on how you would like to cite it. I would use audio recording for audio CDs and Video Recording for DVD. But this depends on what the content is and how do you want to cite it.

  • Zotero Standalone does not have a PDF reader, but uses external software for reading PDFs. What you see may be the default reader in Windows 8. (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/reader-faqs) You can configure a different PDF reader as a…
  • Does your question refer to Zotero Reader (https://secure.zoteroreader.com), or something else? If so, you can probably contact the developer for support. I do not know if they read these forums frequently.
  • Not possible at the moment.
  • You cannot share your library. What you can do is to create a group, as you did, and then drag and drop the content of your library to the group.
  • Yes, the free storage has been increased from 100 to 300. If you are happy with that, then there is no need to renew. And you can purchase more storage later should you need more than the free 300.
  • If you have 200-400 people adding items to a group, it will need a lot of management or it will be a mess. If this is just mostly read-only access, then I do not see a problem.
  • The practical size is probably more limited by how large group you want to manage than by any technical issues.
  • This feature would enable a writer to check and to be sure that all citations have been properly acknowledged and correcly generated in the bibliography. This feature would also help to convince those who are new to citation software that Zotero han…
  • If I type "lme" in the QuickFormat dialog, the page number is not added. If I type lme4, it is added.
  • Everyone agrees that this would be nice feature and it is indeed planned. It just has not been implemented yet, but will be some day.
  • I do not think that that is supported by Zotero because there is no data field for shelf.
  • grieth: Use Zotfile and its extract annotations feature http://www.columbia.edu/~jpl2136/zotfile.html ZotPad 1.3 will include built-in annotation capability and may include a feature of automatically creating notes from the annotations.
  • captaindare: You are more likely to get help if you explain how it did not work for you. What did you do and did you get an error message.
  • The dav.box.com address is a different service than www.box.com. I recommend keeping the www.box.com in the documentation. The dav.box.com is a SabreDAV server and www.box.com is nginx server. The nginx should be much more efficient because it is n…
  • Also you should consider whether you want to do that in the long run. Storing the files in Zotero will automate the management of the files resulting in less work for you.
  • dalivasilic: Try installing a new version here and let me know if it fixes the problem. https://github.com/mronkko/ZoteroQuickLook/raw/master/zoteroquicklook.xpi
  • None. You should checkout autozotbib, though http://www.rtwilson.com/academic/autozotbib
  • ZotPad 1.3 will fully support links to relative paths if the paths is inside Dropbox folder. Currently (version 1.2.x) there is very limited support for linked files. There is some information here http://zotpad.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/…
  • If you are who you think you are, the reason for your ban is not your opinions. The reason is that you were wasting other peoples time. Your opinion has been heard and it is clear that the developers and people who contribute to the forum do not agr…
  • Is the library accessible through the online library https://www.zotero.org/groups/ If you can provide the name of the library, the Zotero team could check what has happened to it. I know that this advice is late, but considering that you can g…
  • Those files have nothing to do with the sqlite database, so calling them "mini sqlite" files is confusing. They just contain cached information about the attached files. You can view these files in a text editor to see what they contain. What you …
