What I want is to remove the "accessed" field @EA-Wiki: To clear the "Accessed" field, copy {"itemType": "book", "accessDate": ""} to the clipboard, then use Zutilo's "Paste all item fields". In general, you will get all the relevant field names if…

I also noticed this issue about a year ago. Back then I thought this might be intentional, since numbered tags could be treated differently. But I agree with you that this is currently inconsistent, there probably shouldn't be a difference between u…

@dstark: The issue you're facing shouldn't be related to what has been discussed above. There's no general issue when using Zutilo and the Zotero beta. Please explain what you did providing more details. Are you a new Zutilo user? There are some op…

manually moving imported files from the storage directory into my Base Directory […] breaks the links in the references @urbanizationist: Yes, you really shouldn't do this. Zotero's storage directory is managed by the Zotero desktop program. Never m…

The script above shows you properties of selected linked files. Linked files have a chain symbol in the attachment icon. It seems that some of your broken attachments are actually stored files, which don't have a chain symbol. Please see Stored File…

Before running the code, you currently need to select "Run as async function". The check box is in the top right of the code window. (I created a related PR.)

@hidetonakamura: You could try replacing the initial path "\directory\. " with "\directory\". But please read through https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/363117/#Comment_363117. @urbanizationist, @hidetonakamura: Here's a script for checki…

If this happens again, you could try the following: Check your export settings: https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/export Change your shortcut, e.g., to Cmd-Shift-H: https://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/advanced#shortcuts Even witho…

The script currently shows "Values for last broken item", but you should realize that the "new full path" is only saved to the database if it is the proper path of a file. If the new filename seems to be the correct one, your problem is most likely …

I can reproduce this issue in a fresh installation of Zotero 5.0.97-beta.28+1daf4b041. The issue occurs in both the TinyMCE and ProseMirror modes of the beta version. Zotero 5.0.96.2 doesn't have this problem. It seems that the beta's note editor in…

@mtonkins: Before making any changes, back up your Zotero data: https://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data#backing_up_your_zotero_data You can use Zutilo's "Show attachment paths" function to figure out your situation: https://forums.zotero.org/dis…

@urbanizationist: I updated the script. The output is more verbose now.

The same Zutilo-related issue has been reported here: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/89971/batch-rename-of-linked-file-attachment-paths-for-collection-pdfs

The script expects that the directories of the selected items are already correct. You can check that with Zutilo's "Show attachment paths" and use "Modify attachment paths" if needed. See my posting from August 27, 2020. Once you've verified the in…

It would also help if you could check which version of Zutilo you were using. See "Tools" -> "Add-ons". Did this happen with the latest Zutilo version?

it also removes the first letter of the filename @urbanizationist: This issue with Zutilo has also been reported here: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/84006/moving-the-linked-files-folders-to-a-different-drive Do you remember whether you click…

@hvalim1: You might be using a sandboxed third-party package of Zotero. If that's the case, try adding an exception to the sandbox. Alternatively, install the official Linux tarball or the zotero-deb package instead. The latter should be easier to i…

Closing the PDF tab seems to preclude onMouseOut: https://github.com/zotero/zotero/commit/74b9604c7b57b2460952c1b8017a78a436d1e963

@dstillman: I'm also seeing this. I tried to look into the issue by running a line from the tooltip code in the Run JavaScript window in different situations: var tooltipElem = document.getElementById('fake-tooltip'); tooltipElem; The problem seems…

In this discussion, it was suggested to also add access to the list of related items in the right pane when using the PDF reader. The current "Related" tab in the library viewer shows item titles only. A more verbose presentation of the related item…

The Zutilo add-on provides several batch editing functions. See this discussion: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/85593/editing-multiple-items-at-once

This is a ZotFile issue. I created a pull request with a fix: https://github.com/jlegewie/zotfile/issues/530 BTW, Zotero's beta version comes with a new PDF reader, which you might want to try: https://www.zotero.org/support/pdf_reader_preview I'…

@Mart: Use Zutilo's "Paste item type", not "Paste non-empty item fields". https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/85593/editing-multiple-items-at-once

I'm pretty sure about that. There's no reason why existing collections would be used. If you want to keep the parent items, you could use the Zutilo add-on to clear all item metadata. Add all bad parent items to a collection. Then create a new empt…

7. Using the "Folder Import for Zotero" add-on […], presumably putting them all into the pre-existing collections. Most likely, this will create new collections with the same names. You will have duplicated collection trees.

For structured filenames, see this discussion: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/89460/importing-files-with-structured-filenames-title-author-year-pdf (You could drag the attachments out of Zotero and import them again through a RIS file.)

I have many attachments whose metadata retrieval failed, so I'm left with many parent items with useless names. I'd like to rename them as the filenames. @seeingtheforest: You could try this: A. Separate pdf attachments from parent items: 1. Add i…

@iagogv: You could try using Zutilo's "Copy item fields" and "Paste all item fields" for this, see here. Edit the creators in the JSON data with a text editor or a tool like https://jsoneditoronline.org/, which allows dragging and dropping.

@Mart: If you edit the JSON text, you need to keep the itemType name/value pair as explained in the Command reference's description for the "Paste all item fields" function: To edit specific item fields, select a source item and use "Copy item field…
