@dstillman: I just successfully tested the script on two Windows 10 setups that don't have Cygwin installed, Enterprise 21H2 and Pro 21H2. I'd guess you're not running Windows Home. So perhaps Cygwin is the culprit? You could try redirecting standa…

Do you only get this with many PDF reader tabs? Try closing some tabs. This might be related to other issues with many open tabs. I noticed that the item count can move out of the displayed area. https://github.com/zotero/zotero/issues/2232 https:…

If your question is about sorting tags in the tag selector by, e.g., frequency, I'm afraid that's not currently possible.

The Zutilo add-on provides some related shortcuts. See Attachment functions and ZotFile functions -> "Attach new file". On Windows, you can drag, Shift+drag, or Ctrl+Shift+drag, which will "copy", "move", or "link" attachments, respectively. Zot…

Is it possible to list the whole list or search results according to some criterion? See Sorting, Searching, and Tags in Zotero's support pages. I'd recommend setting up saved searches.

Redirecting the debug output logging to a file should work on Windows. Maybe you're getting issues related to space characters or due to using a portable version of Zotero. I'm using this batch script on a Windows setup for starting Zotero and savi…

... what I need is the ability to either see the unique ID for any single item, or the ability to create one @mmarek58: If you install the Better BibTeX add-on, you'll get a Citation Key column. The citation keys can be customized. Maybe that's what…

If you're on a new setup, make sure you've installed the Zutilo add-on. You might also have to set up your Zutilo preferences again, see "Tools" -> "Zutilo Preferences…". Make sure "Copy select item links" is added to the user interface. (BTW, t…

Many names of PDFs are renamed wrongly even I choose not to rename attachments. If you can reproduce this, please report it in a new discussion.

Using "View" -> "Layout" -> "Tag Selector" is working as expected. I'm actually still getting the same visual bug when using the View menu with the keyboard to toggle off the tag selector after selecting an item in the items list. Steps to re…

Thanks for the fix!

Any way to select all PDFs and remove parent items in batch? You should be able to do this by following these steps. The issue with Zotero's beta version has been fixed in the meantime.
-
The Zutilo add-on provides some functions that might help you with this, see here. You could use Zutilo's "Show attachment paths" function to figure out your current situation. It seems that the Linked Attachment Base Directory isn't set up properly.

I'm know that the citekey string isn't part of the `item` properties @daeh: You could make it part of the Extra field. With BBT's autoPinDelay option, citation keys will automatically be written to the Extra field.
-
If you're running Zotero's stable release, see this discussion. You could try these steps. (The "Create Parent Items..." dialog seems to be broken in the current beta version.) Also note that it's possible to edit multiple items at once: https://fo…

I can reproduce this issue on a Windows setup. The plus and minus buttons to the right of the author field in the Info pane disappear with too many PDF reader tabs. There's a related issue on Zotero's GitHub: https://github.com/zotero/zotero/issues…

I agree with you. "Automatic Zoom" should be the default in my opinion. https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/93153/issues-with-built-in-pdf-reader

https://www.zotero.org/support/collections_and_tags#removing_tags_from_items You can also hold Cmd (Mac) or Shift (Windows/Linux) while dragging items to a tag in the tag selector in the bottom left to remove the tag from all of those items. You can…

Thanks! It's working well.

This should work. Zutilo's "Paste non-empty item fields" option only shows up if there're valid JSON item data on the clipboard. Use "Copy items fields" before using "Paste non-empty item fields". See this discussion for more details: https://forum…

Add by Identifier, e.g. can be assigned a keyboard shortcut. Yes, the "Add Item(s) By Identifier" function is called "Lookup item by identifier" in the Zutilo add-on. Zutilo also provides shortcuts for most of the other functions, e.g., "Open new it…

A shortcut for "View online" could be added to the Zutilo add-on. There's a related open issue on GitHub. It would be great if the Zotero developers could have a look at this pull request, which would make it easier to create a Zutilo shortcut for …

The Zutilo add-on provides some batch editing functions. If you want to try using them, install Zutilo. Then go to "Tools" -> "Zutilo Preferences…" -> "User Interface". Add the "Copy item fields", "Paste into empty item fields", "Paste non-emp…

The "Resize automatically" option doesn't always work. The PDF reader in Zotero's beta version is based on pdf.js, which is also used in Firefox. While the default in Firefox is "Automatic Zoom", the default in Zotero currently seems to be "Zoom to …

Note that the kuroshiro option should work as expected for your initial example: I'm not using the kuroshiro option, but in a quick test it first didn't seem to work. I then had a look at this issue and realized that my usual citation key format was…

I think you were misunderstanding this: 5. If Better BibTeX plug-in creates an incorrect romajization, right-click on the item, and choose "Better BibTeX" -> "Change BibTeX key...". Manually enter the correct citation key and click "OK". Alterna…

@Darren%20McDonald: If the kuroshiro option isn't working for you, you could consider opening an issue on GitHub to debug this further with @emilianoeheyns. I'm not using the kuroshiro option, but in a quick test it first didn't seem to work. I the…

You can't directly edit the the "Citation Key" at the top of the "info" pane. Write a new line with "Citation Key: test" to the Extra field at the bottom of the "info" pane. This will pin the citation key. BBT provides options in the item's context …
-
Zotero's items tree has a find-as-you-type function. Sort the items list by the citation key column and put the focus on an item in the list. You can then type the first letters of an author's name to find citekeys that start with, e.g., "Aut..".
-
If you install the BBT add-on, you'll get a citation key column. Use a format such as Author2021 for your citekeys. Then sort by the citation key column. https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/83188/sort-by-first-creator-year-for-the-middle-panel
