Regarding "I haven’t found a plugin yet that creates linked files when uploading entries by folder", the folder import plugin does apparently have that option ... https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/116329/how-do-i-mass-import-papers-into-zotero-wi…

Do you mean you're not seeing the item pane in the desktop app ? i.e. View->Layout->Item Pane ? That's where the Note icon is. Do note that a standalone PDF needs to have a parent item. https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#sta…

It's on github. and v10 compatible ... https://github.com/gaviiiinnnn/zotero-settings-sync/releases

As long as you had *data* syncing turned on, all your metadata (including the recorded locations of your PDFs) would be stored online (you would be able to see all your items in your web library). Data syncing is free and unlimited, regardless of wh…

The Zoplicate plugin handles duplicate checking nicely ... but only as a downloaded item is actually being added to Zotero. It would indeed be nice if the Zotero connector could flag potential duplicates *before* download. But that would add some s…

The first question is what is your reason for putting your data folder on an external SSD ? Library size or portable access ? There may be better ways to achieve your aims (BTW asking AI for Zotero advice is not always very accurate, and sometimes c…

There is a version 10 compatible version of the plugin. But github updates for that plugin are somewhat strange. If you have installed the last release shown on github (1.7.2), which is only Zotero version 9 compatible, it should auto-update to the …
-
@rmconroy since 2019 it's always been visible in the View menu of the main library view. Which as a global library viewing option seems to make the most sense.
-
The Reference plugin offers a slightly different way of dealing with that issue, in its right-pane tab. For cited items *not* already in your library, over the cited item you have the right-click "Open in Browser" option to go to that item's URL. Fo…

That's from a plugin (Ethereal Style ?). You should refer the problem to the plugin developer.

@dstillman when I use your syntax I get nothing added to the Item note. {{:highlight}} {{:citation}} {{:comment}}{{:if tags}} #{{:tags join=' #'}}{{:endif}} If I remove all the ":" it works. EDIT: OK I see that is now fixed. My other problem was t…

@jg675 if you get the tags syntax to work, please post your syntax here. I haven't had any luck.

The latest version of Notero requires Zotero v10. Use v1.2.3. for Zotero 9 ... https://github.com/dvanoni/notero#install-and-configure-notero-plugin
-
Nice work. It took me a moment to figure out that the "links" are actually added as click-able overlay buttons on the current PDF's reference list. But the plugin nicely addresses a very common need - to directly open a referenced item's PDF (that …
-
@grahamperrin not exactly sure what you're pointing out. The Zotero Connector is not relevant to the method described (except maybe later). The method allows you to add to Firefox the ability to search your Zotero web library for a text string you h…
-
The plugins that people have typically used to support linked file setups - Zotfile originally, and in recent years Zotmoov or Attanger - have always appended a number to the file name where multiple linked PDFs would otherwise have the same name. …
-
Is Zotero still enforcing 'strict_max_version" for plugins ? I notice I have one plugin (below) where the latest plugin version has this set to 8.*, yet it works fine under Zotero version 9. https://github.com/paulMrG2/zotero-highlight-descriptions …

Maybe not quite what you're asking for, but the Scholar Search plugin does address the problem you mention, of having to copy/paste text to search in a browser. It allows a direct right-click Google or Google Scholar search in your browser (or other…

The Ethereal Style plugin added favourite collections pinning to the top of the collection list in version 5.3.5 (December 2024), described in the releases list here ... https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-style/releases

As far as adding that set of tags to lots of items, that could be done with the Zutilo plugin. Right-click on an item that already has those 10 tags and 'Copy tags to clipboard', then select all the items that need those tags and right-click 'Paste …
-
This macro-based MS Word add-in does that for .docx files. Those clickable links should persist when saved to PDF but I have not seen that confirmed. https://github.com/sbaydin/ZoteroCiteLinker It can also turn URLs in the bibliography into active,…
-
Do you mean where that happens automatically ... that every PDF downloaded by the web connector *also* has a copy placed in a pre-designated folder ? If so, you may be recalling Zotmoov's option to to make that extra copy (instead of its more comm…
-
Since my earlier post about 7 weeks ago, the number of Zotero AI plugins has ballooned from 29 to almost 50. That number of options is thus even more daunting for the average user to negotiate. And it will likely get worse. Also, many of the current…
-
Edit: @factmission, reading your post again, it's not clear that your PDFs were 'linked' files *before* you copied them to the USB drive. If they were, then what I wrote below still applies. But if they were 'stored' files under c:/Users/John/Zotero…
-
There is a VBA macro for MS Word which does that, but I don't believe anyone has done one for LibreOffice. https://github.com/sbaydin/ZoteroCiteLinker Perhaps a project for someone ? An AI chatbot like Gemini might be smart enough to do a direct tr…

In my case, I wish to record the URL where I got the PDF from, in cases where that is not the same as the DOI-link URL (or when no DOI exists). So my URL field, when filled, rarely leads to the same URL as the DOI, if that exists. It's not the most …
-
I note the prominent warning on the github front page ... "READ CAREFULLY: The plugin will OVERWRITE the existing URL metadata of your items with the OpenAlex Work URL. The rational is to use the DOI link as one-click link to the original source and…

Re your first question, the Attachment Scanner plugin can add a column for attachment size. https://github.com/SciImage/zotero-attachment-scanner
-
Suggestions to improve this process have been made for a long time. Originally there was no right-click Create Book Section at all, and so chapters/book sections had to created entirely manually (IIRC the Zutilo plugin first automated the process). …
-
There was a plugin that used the left and right arrow keys for backward/forward navigation - see below. It worked well, but it was never updated beyond Zotero 5. The code is still there, so it could be a simple plugin project for anyone looking for …
