[quote]Well, it would seem you synced in March, at least. That's when the 1380 items are from.[/quote] This is a partial sync only. I started using Zotero by importing my endnote library of approximately 4000 items. [quote]We're working o…

I agree with you that it depends on the context. I for example store entire books in Zotero as scanned chapters (very handy!). But for 99% of cases when I drag an item to Zotero, I would like to have it renamed. For me the optimal solution would be…

The second one was a stupid user error. I did not understand that group libraries are not part of my library. I assumed that they would work like a collection. In other words, when I was entering a citation my library was chosen as a default and nat…

This is not a big issue, but just something that I noted and consider unwanted behavior. You could generalize from this to all types of fields: if you can insert a field in the middle of another field, there is a possibility that the fields are corr…

Any ideas on what might be going wrong here?

Rinze: thanks for replying, but this is not quite what I am looking for. The issue is that the webdav server used for this kind of sharing would need to be open to public and this is probably not a feasible option in most cases. I assume that "trans…

There is a nice plugin called zotfile for that. It takes the latest PDF file in your downloads folder and attaches it to the current Zotero item.
-
Yes, that did it. Thanks.

I am using FF 3.5 and my colleague is using 3.0.8. Neither browser can import the file that was created by Zotero . 1477746144 Mikko

There is a preference called zotfile.import or something similar. Change this to false.

This does not seem to work with Linux. Moving the file causes some kind of error. I created a patch that can be used to replace one code block to get the import functionality working on linux. Linking does not work with this. http://rafb.…

If you feel like throubleshooting this yourself, you can download Venkman javascript debugger and run profiler to see what takes so long with your system. Steps to do: -Install Venkman from https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/216 -Choo…

I also have performance problems, but my database has 4744 items. With this, I have noticed delays only when I do something that causes the item list in the middle to be updated. I am using the latest beta, so switching to that might help you. One p…

You need to do the notes with our PDF reader. Most PDF reading software enable you to do this. Zotero cannot annotate PDFs. Mikko

External desktop search has the advantage of covering a lot more file types that Zotero can. For example Google Desktop can do OCR for PDFs. One way to do this would be to create temporary database table of the search results from desktop sear…

I would vote for the same feature for tags so that you can easily identify tags that are just "outliers" in your library. Mikko

I would vote for 4 and have that as a global setting which defaults to 2. Mikko

I have spotlight set up to index my zotero data directoty. What I would however like to accomplish is searching through full text index of MS Office files in Zotero, since not all files are in PDF format. Using an external tool for this would be use…

This issue turned out to be a "stupid user" -error. I deleted the tags from a database under my firefox profile, but had previously relocated the Zotero database. Mikko

I have done the following: 1) Use SQLite Manager firefox extension to run "delete from itemtags" and "delete from tags" from /zotero/zotero.sqlite under my Firefox profile 2) Restart Firefox Still the tags show in the tag selector. The tags…

This is how I am currently doing it, but it is a bit slow to switch between mouse and keyboard to rename tags with names that already exist. A warning dialog would definitely be needed. Mikko

Deleting tags is very slow with my database. It takes 5 to 10 seconds to delete a tag. I have 4600 articles in the database and rougly 3000 tags. Removing a single tag results in approximately a thousand SQL queries. I posted the log wit…

I have a small enhancement proposal. The future versions of Zotfile could use Zotero functions to create the filenames instead of implementing another mechanism to determine the name for the PDF. Replace this line filename=this.createFilename…

It indeed removes the orphaned tags when I reopen the zotero pane. Just out of curiosity: Why does it work like that? Mikko
-
What I mean when I say that deleting tags is slow is that when I delete a tag from my large library, the software freezes for a second or two. To clean my tags faster, I went to delete them from the database. The idea was to first delete all un…

That indeed does it for tags. Thanks. Cleaning of authors seems to be an open issue? Mikko

I played around with Spotlight last night and got it to index custom attributes that I have placed in PDFs from command line. I have currently implemented author, year, and publication. If I can get some help in integrating this to Zotero, I c…

kerim: I have exactly the same problem and I am working on a solution of reading the author and title information from a PDF. More information here http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/6129/translators-for-pdfs/ Mikko
