The ethereal style plugin allows you to add a tags column, which you can place anywhere you wish. https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-style?tab=readme-ov-file#tags

My institution switched from EZproxy to OpenAthens a few years back. The instructions from my institution for Zotero are to either uncheck Enable Proxy Redirection, or just remove any old EZproxy and university URL entries from the Configured Proxie…

You should also have a discussion with Zotero devs in the development group at Google Groups (below) on how best to add such data structures to Zotero. As you and I have said, it makes most sense for "cited by" and "cites" data to become an integral…

When the future of Zotfile-like move/rename functionality in Zotero v7 (currently in beta) was initially uncertain (now provided by attanger or zotmoov), I mapped out the fallback options. Zotero does already have relatively simple ways to create l…

For "cites" information, see the zotoro-reference plugin. https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-reference https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/455585/#Comment_455585 Such information is now readily available from databases like Crossref (t…

A mixture of Zotero-online-synced and unsynced attachments can only really be achieved by having the attachments you don't want synced saved as linked files (because Zotero does not sync those). You could just have the linked files on one computer; …

If I recall correctly, 'Wandering File' (zotero-file) and Attanger are the same thing. There was just a naming dispute along the way that caused the former to disappear for a while. And then reappear as Attanger. So it would be somewhat surprising i…

You can import the annotations you added with an external PDF reader when back in Zotero Desktop's PDF reader using File\Import Annotations. That will unlock them. However they will then be in Zotero's database, so no longer visible in an external P…

Do you mean you have saved the PDF for the book review under the book's item (as a linked PDF attachment not a stored PDF attachment ?) ? Export in what form ? To where ?
-
I have Zotero Style v2.6.7 (the latest release version) enabled in Zotero 6 and both those operations work correctly for me. There are a lot of options in the plugin that can be enabled/disabled, so I guess it might still be possible that it's causi…

Re "I thought all the PDFS were online as well as on my computer", can you clarify: Is that specific Vakalahi and Godinet 2014 paper (that is giving you the error on your new computer) able to be opened from your web library ?

They're from the zotero-style plugin. And they're just saved searches. Not sure how you ended up with duplicates, but you can just delete any you don't want. https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-style

The problem is simply that one must choose a single item type in order to merge items - there is no way for a single item to possess attributes from more than one item type. So the simplest option currently is to keep them as separate items (linked …

Assuming Zotfile's Send-to-Tablet is not resurrected in a v7-compatible plugin, there are several other possible options. Remembering that linked attachment files are not supported on Zotero Mobile. You could maintain a designated small collection …

If your PDF collection is huge and and a paid online storage account is not feasible, people often manage that with linked attachment files in a cloud-mirrored folder. Note the limitations - they don't work with groups or Zotero mobile. And of cours…

Zotero will attach a copy of the file as a stored attachment file (under Zotero\storage), unless you have a plugin active that is designed to create linked files instead, such as Zotfile. If you don't want that behaviour, disable the plugin; or in T…

You can't select them as such. But only attachment files in local Zotero storage get synced online (ie those under Zotero\storage); as long as you have file syncing turned on and are under your online file storage quota. Attachment files which you d…

@kamran_ the latest significant interface changes in the Zotero v7 beta look to have broken a few things. They should be fixed in time. https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-reference/issues

@ridvanbinici I think that Actions&Tags script gives the number of times a paper has been cited by others. Not the number of references it cites. See the relevant code: json['is-referenced-by-count'] But maybe someone can come up with a script …

Most cases are single-step. There is only one case where you need need two steps to create a linked attachment file; and so generally you just avoid that one. Firstly, as you found, for any PDF attachments that have mistakenly ended up under Zotero…

It sounds like the PDF files that are not syncing are linked PDFs (not files in Zotero storage under Zotero\storage). The differences between the two ways of storing PDF attachment files is outlined here: https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_fil…

The zotero-reference plugin can give you the reference count in the PDF viewer. You get a new 'References' tab there. It uses text parsing of the actual PDF or API lookup from Crossref to display the numbered reference list. Those methods are not co…

Regarding the Zotero account ownership issue, you may also want to check your institution's intellectual property (IP) policy. In my experience, academic institutions have not generally claimed ownership of "scholarly works" by staff (except teachin…
