As long as you have 'Add Number to Collection Tree' set to ON in the Style preferences (under Edit\Preferences) it does work (very well). You can turn off the many other functions if you wish (eg if things get slow with all set to ON). It is the onl…

There are linked file setups that have linked attachment files in different subfolders, usually all under a single parent folder. That doesn't require any dynamic changes to settings. But I don't use such a setup so I'm not the person to advise on i…

Assuming that you mean a 'snapshot' of the web page, the first thing to check is that you have Edit\Preferences\General\'Automatically take snapshots when creating items from web pages' in Zotero Desktop set to ON. https://www.zotero.org/support/pre…

Sci-hub is currently experiencing issues in many countries for the official links. Mostly returning a blank screen. But that is a different issue to the captcha. https://www.reddit.com/r/scihub/comments/1azgza6/which_countries_are_experiencing_isp_b…

@vijay.krishnan you can get a list of all linked attachments (not just PDFs) with the following code run under Tools\Developers\Run Javascript: var filepathnames = await Zotero.DB.columnQueryAsync('SELECT path AS filepathnames FROM itemAttachments …

The zoplicate plugin does that well. https://chenglongma.com/zoplicate/

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…

There is also a sci-hub script for the zotero-actions-tags plugin (which also works with the Zotero 7 beta; the original zotero-scihub plugin does not yet do so) ... https://github.com/ethanwillis/zotero-scihub/issues/96#issuecomment-1758310741 http…

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 …
