I use saved searches for a number of things that I would otherwise be manually re-entering advanced search terms for often ... - key authors/research groups whose work I often need to look at - key topics that are find-able in more than one way (ta…

There are no right or wrong answers to library organization questions. You have to decide what approach works best for the knowledge domains in which you work. And what makes intuitive sense to you. Just make sure you understand how the Zotero colle…

Regarding narrowing this down further, Zotmoov/Zotero does work with linked epub files stored on a regular local drive. So if you were to test a linked epub file on a local drive on your system, and that worked, then it would point more clearly tow…

Can you select individual lines of text in that particular PDF in any other PDF reader ? If not, the PDF is likely a scanned (image) PDF that would require processing by OCR to make the text selectable.
-
Yes, that would work too. Just more complex as I said. Use Tools\Manage Attachments\Connvert Linked Files to Stored Files. With your 14 gb of linked files, that is probably going to take a while. So do it in smaller chunks (eg all the 'A' titles, th…

OK, since you do not have sufficient online file storage quota to sync even all your stored files to your laptop via Zotero servers, the simplest approach would be to expand on the solution I originally proposed to cover just your linked files: an e…

Zotero *file* syncing only syncs "stored" PDFs not "linked" PDFs. And in order to sync stored files, you need a sufficient online file storage quota (300 mb free; paid storage plans for more). Zotero *data* syncing is free and unlimited. https://www…

You mention that your linked file paths started with an "attachments:" prefix. That means you had a Linked Attachment Base Directory (LABD) entry in Zotero settings (on one or more computers); either continuously from some point in the past, or at l…

That's all good. But that is all addressed at plugin developers - whose stricter attention to updating Zotero compatibility will hopefully benefit users in the future. It doesn't directly address the current *user* dilemma though - users who are ha…

The latest Cita beta 1.0.0-beta.18 still shows v8 as the max compatible Zotero version (open XPI file as ZIP, then open the manifest.json text file inside the ZIP to check that value). So an issue should be raised with the developer to update compa…

Thanks @northword. I was actually going to mention that very good plugin repository in my post, but at the time I wrote it today the dropdown menu on the site had not been updated to allow a compatibility check for volume 9. I see that it has now be…

Could a feature please be added to show the Zotero version compatibility of all of a user's current plugins, to be checked prior to updating to a new Zotero version ? As is, a user either has to take their chances that some of their "mission critic…

I don't use latex compilation (so maybe I'm missing something), but the best solution to keeping things together *within Zotero* would probably be to add the files as attachments under the parent item. If there are multiple files from each compilati…

Firstly for clarity regarding terminology, "local storage" *only* means storage on your local computer, using its disk space. Uploading to Zotero servers - when syncing is ON - is not "Zotero's local storage". Regarding your question, again firstl…

1. You can store as much as you wish on your local computer. 2. Data syncing to Zotero servers is free and unlimited. 3. File syncing (eg PDFs) is subject to your online file storage quota (300 mb free; extra storage is paid). 4. You should also hav…

The standard way to use multiple databases is via multiple profiles, not by changing the database location in Settings. You do have to restart Zotero to switch profiles. And to have the same settings (including plugins) in each profile you would nee…

Zoplicate allows you to mark items as non-duplicates. https://chenglongma.com/zoplicate/

That looks like the Reference plugin is trying to contact Google Scholar to retrieve the abstract ('Abstract is loading ...' in the bottom left), for the paper's cited reference you have in the plugin's right pane (the first time it does that you ju…

You can only add items to Zotero from a list of URLS via a custom script, eg https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/78638/unable-to-bulk-import-a-list-of-urls

Attachment files with a .ZIP extension still open in the OS file manager for me (Windows 11, Zotero 8.0.3). What OS/Zotero are you using ?
-
Depends on how such links open from a note ;). It might be in the OS's default handler instead of the web browser (for the web link alternative). And as this use case sounds like it is for collaborative writing rather than say for access to a remote…
-
To avoid the URL field, another option would be to place the link in an item (child) note or standalone note. I don't have any such links to test, so I don't know if that will open in your default browser or your OS's default handler for the linked …

You can always store as much as you wish on your local computer. The file storage quota is only for online attachment file storage (metadata online storage is free and unlimited). Once you have exceeded your online file storage quota, no new attachm…

Do you have the PMIDs that you can get a list of (or DOI etc) ? If so you can pass the list to Add Item By Identifier. https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#add_item_by_identifier You can create a bibliography directly from items in…
-
@marcodepp you can do that as I described, by adding the file type's MIME type to the preference: extensions.zotero.autoRenameFiles.fileTypes. That's obviously a little difficult for users to figure out, since it's not documented anywhere AFAIK. Th…
