Yes, this function is currently missing in ZotFile. I think it's implemented now in Zotero's own renaming function, but if you need to use ZotFile, you can get something that should work in most cases with ZotFile's user-defined wildcards: {"1": {"…

If the toolbar has focus, it would be great if pressing Esc could return focus to the items list. Currently, it's difficult to exit the toolbar navigation. Similarly, when editing a field in the item Info pane, it would be great if pressing Esc onc…

- Ctrl+Shift+T to show/hide the tag selector This Zotero shortcut has been removed. In Zotero 6, Ctrl+Shift+T is used for reopening closed tabs. We could perhaps add a customizable Zutilo shortcut for toggling the tag selector, but I'm not sure it i…

Yes, I meant appear and disappear. This might indeed be a regression. I think there was some work related to the keyboard accessibility.

I've also experienced this issue in the past when using Zotero 5. It happens when you try to open an unsupported zotero:// link such as zotero://data/ and then check "Remember my choice for zotero links" in the prompt described above. I noticed that…

[...] I would like to get the merged item selected after merging, so that I can finish the manual editing after the automatic process. I think it would be nice if the merged item could be selected and remain displayed in the "Duplicate Items" collec…

However, if the PDF has pages of different width, the zoom to page width seems to focus on the current page. If that page is the widest of the PDF, then the arrow keys will work for moving forward and backward pages. If not, then the arrow keys will…

There's a related issue on GitHub, so the Zotero developers are considering such a feature. Currently, tags in Zotero can have space characters and the hash symbol # isn't excluded either. Perhaps it's better to use something like my tag, as sugges…

You can use the context menu key or Shift+F10 as an alternative to right-clicking items.

I'm not sure if the Duplicate Items collection can be easily added as a search condition in Zotero's advanced search. In Duplicate Items, potential duplicates are grouped together. You wouldn't expect that in an advanced search. Rather than adding …

How about a modified PDF icon, e.g., with a pen, similar to the new Preprint icon? Here's a related discussion: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/96173/zotero-pdf-reader-how-do-i-know-whether-a-pdf-has-annotations

You could try using the Zutilo add-on or Zotero's JavaScript API for batch editing of multiple entries. See this discussion: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/85593/editing-multiple-items-at-once If there are some translators you'd like to have…

I'd also prefer to keep the shortcut for view-only rotation. It's quicker than editing individual pages in the PDF. There are also cases when you don't want to edit the PDF file. For example, if there's a figure in a paper that can be viewed in two …

@dstillman: I think the issue arises on macOS with an external PDF viewer which is called using AppleScript in Zotero's openToPage code. If you click zotero://open-pdf/library/items/5RTYM25B?page=22 to open the "physical" page 22 which corresponds t…

Any way to add chemical formulas too? Zotero uses prosemirror-math, which is based on KaTeX. There's a chemistry extension for KaTeX, so perhaps it's possible to add support for chemical formulas. These should be the currently supported functions: …

@RonnenLevinson: The Open in External Reader context menu option is already available through this plugin: https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-open-pdf

If you copy over the prefs.js file in your profile directory to the new computer, this preference will be kept. https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/profile_directory

Just in case it's unclear: search for "extensions.zotfile.wildcards.default" in the Config Editor, right-click the preference, select "Modify", then paste in the value given above.
-
I wouldn't wait for the PR to be merged. It's unclear if or when that might happen. So simply open Zotero's Config Editor and change the "extensions.zotfile.wildcards.default" preference. (The PR has the same effect.)
-
@hsiangyu_wong: Thank you, this is quite interesting. It would be nice to have the wiki on GitHub pages.
-
@PNDPermitting: You can fix this issue by changing the preference extensions.zotfile.wildcards.default in the Config Editor to this value: {"a": "author", "A": {"field": "author", "operations":[{"function":"exec","regex": "\\w{1}"},{"function":"toU…

To avoid this, this function would need to ignore related-item relations to either all book sections or to book sections where the title matches the book title. (The reason to do the latter would be to allow book sections to inherit relations to oth…

On the question of whether book sections should automatically be related to other book sections: it makes the list of related items very cluttered, and as far as I can see unnecessarily so. I also agree with this. Usually, I add the book sections as…

I also noticed this on Windows some time ago. This wasn't the case in the past, I believe. I'd also prefer the previous behavior.

I haven't tested the Zotero Tag add-on, but I think it would be nice if Zotero could add an improved version of such a popup natively. The option could follow the behavior of the Labels button for selected messages in Gmail. You'd be able to add or …

@emilianoeheyns: Thanks for the plugin! I would just add a warning to the GitHub readme that modifying PDFs outside of Zotero (e.g., deleting, moving, or rotating pages) may result in inconsistencies with Zotero-created annotations. I added this war…

I would request to improve the detection mechanism so that it will be able to introduce much fewer "false duplicates". @livey_liwei: Yes, this was also my main point. The suggestion was to make the criteria for the duplicate items detection adjustab…

Thanks for adding this function! I think the PDF page rotation labels could be improved. Currently, the labels are: Rotate 90° Rotate 180° Rotate 270° I'd like to suggest the following instead: Rotate 90° clockwise Rotate 180° Rotate 90° counter-…

@ipwars: I'd recommend trying the annotation functions in Zotero 6. Double-clicking "Page" in the annotation bar on the left side allows you to edit the page label. (If you know how to work with ZIP files, it's not very difficult to modify ZotFile…
