@bruderj Please read my post right above yours carefully. E.g., your point 2 is already answered. Zotfile does not automatically grab files from the Download folder. For troubleshooting the main issue, you could follow these steps: A) If you right…

Please check Zotero's documentation on stored vs. linked files, backups, syncing, etc.: https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/advanced#files_and_folders https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files https://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data h…

@bschofie As a workaround, you could save an advanced search e.g. with title "search" and edit it each time you want to use an advanced search. You have all columns available for a saved search. At the moment, however, there seems to be an issue wit…

Zotero has some basic keyboard shortcuts which can be set in "Preferences" -> "Advanced" -> "Shortcuts": https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/advanced#shortcuts The interface can also often be navigated using "Tab" (forwards) and "Shift…

I noticed the following, using LibreOffice on Windows 10, without groups. With the default settings, ODF Scan works properly with: { | Smith, (2012) | | |zu:0:WQVBH98K} Setting "extensions.zotero.translators.ODFScan.useZoteroSelect" to "true", I g…

You could check if this helps: (a) Enable Zotfile's automatic renaming of new entries. This setting might be somewhat difficult to spot in Zotfile's settings. It can automatically move attachments to a custom location. See "Tools" -> "ZotFile P…

As explained here, one workaround would be to run chrome with Code Integrity disabled: chrome.exe --disable-features=RendererCodeIntegrity. For other options, see the thread linked to in the previous post.
-
For a workaround, you could use the ZotFile add-on, which adds a "Attach New File" context menu for items, accessed by right-clicking. You could also make use of the Zutilo add-on, which adds keyboard shortcuts for Zotfile.

See here why this would be problematic for Windows.

If you are running Symantec Endpoint Protection, see here: https://support.symantec.com/us/en/article.tech256047.html According to the Microsoft page above, there are also issues with Avast and AVG anti-virus products.

Are the issues here all for Windows 10 version 1903 or 1909? If so, they are likely the same issue as this one: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/80845/unable-to-open-zotero-on-my-desktop-after-window-10-update-to-version-1909

There could also be some issue with your security software in Windows 10. You could try this: 1. Update your anti-virus software. 2. Run programs in compatibility mode for Windows 8. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-information/sta…

@Joscha Auto-update seems broken for 5.0.14. The Error Console shows these messages: [JavaScript Error: "XML Parsing Error: prefix not bound to a namespace Location: moz-nullprincipal:{...} Line Number 4, Column 5:" {file: "moz-nullprincipal:{...}"…

@sdflewrit783 This is working for me with Zotero 5.0.81. You can test it quickly using the Zutilo add-on. Select an item with multiple creators and use Zutilo's "Copy creators" function. Paste this into the creator's last name field for a new empty …

@lgoldmann Regarding your two remaining questions: 1) You could perhaps look into adapting Emiliano's Zotero SeekTable CSV export translator. It exports BBT citation keys. An example translator for zotero://select links is https://gist.github.com/n…

Version 5.0.81-beta.13+aef198d6b resolves the issue for me as well. Thanks a lot! I've increased it to 50 in the latest beta It would be great if the full autocomplete list could be shown again in some later version. This useful feature was working …

The issue is actually only partially fixed for me on Windows 10 in the latest beta 5.0.81-beta.12+5a1e32961. It is fixed for a new advanced search. However, for a saved search it is still there and easily reproducible. Saving an advanced search, reo…

I had the same issue. The issue is fixed for me on Windows 10 in the latest beta: version => 5.0.81-beta.11+12ccbf45c, platform => Win32, oscpu => Windows NT 10.0; WOW64, locale => en-US. @chabanneifelyon I guess it would be helpful if …

In the Zutilo context menu, you can "copy item fields", then paste to a text editor. The itemType for the given item will be in these data.
-
For changing field entries, I would recommend using the Zutilo add-on, see here. For changing item types, you could try this script. Note that when changing the itemType of an item A from type1 to type2, there can be fields that are non-empty in A …

I can reproduce the advanced search error in 2). Here is some debug output logging: https://pastebin.com/N7wS3CUW

Thanks a lot for the quick fix! This issue is resolved in 1.4.2.

Yes, there were multiple attachments for the item that produced the error. (I shortened the debug output for readability.) I'm now actually using a different custom viewer that opens all pdf attachments in tabs. Could you please preserve the behavi…

I think a good solution would be to just allow "Convert Linked Files to Stored Files" for items in the Trash folder. At the moment it says "You cannot make changes to the currently selected collection." The procedure would then be to move items to …

The issue is resolved in Zotero 5.0.80. Thanks a lot for the quick fix! BTW, I had a minor issue when updating from 5.0.78 to 5.0.80. The first time I updated, the update window seemed stuck at the end of the process with Software Update Download…

Possible workarounds 1. Type a few characters starting from the second character of the tag, then add the first one. The autocomplete search should have much fewer results and the issue doesn't occur. 2. Dragging an item to a tag in the tag select…

I don't have any problems with Zotero 5.0.78 and BBT 5.1.164. The problem seems to be with BBT 5.1.165 and higher. Thanks for the announcement. I could disable BBT auto-update in time.

@dstillman Maybe you could consider a second trash function in the item context menu: "Move Items to Trash (incl. Linked Files)" = "Convert Linked Files to Stored Files" + "Move Items to Trash"

@liuhaijin I think you just have to accept that linked files will not be deleted by Zotero currently. For pros and cons, see e.g.: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/79899/deleting-removing-item-should-remove-ask-to-remove-any-attachments You co…
