If your data and/or attachment files were never synced online to Zotero servers/web library from the old computer (with the Zotero account you used on that computer), then the best way to get them onto your new computer would be from a backup of the…
-
With the focus on the main item pane, you can see *both* the parent item and its attachments by using the + key to expand all items (and the - key to collapse them again).
-
This bug is associated with several 'night' plugins that have forked from original code that had that bug. AFAIK none have solved/fixed it yet, despite most being aware of it. https://github.com/tefkah/zotero-night/issues/88
-
OK, so if you are not using Zotfile, or online Data or File Syncing, you just need to know where your Zotero data and attachments are stored: https://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data Once you know that you can set things up the same as your Endnot…

It is not exactly clear how you have configured Zotero on your two computers to achieve your portable Zotero setup (without using online data or file syncing). If I understand your needs correctly, it should be possible to do so (although unusual, a…

Thanks @diegodlh. I am not sure if any of the workshop organizers are active here, but the other recent player in this space that they may wish to to cover is: https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-reference It is still under development, but has…

You can put Interviewer in the Extra field, add that as a column in the main pane, and sort on that.
-
It's "court" (as in law) not "count".
-
Yes I thought that's what it would be, as I've seen it a few times before. So I eventually closed the update window, and then closed Zotero. There was no Zotero process remaining in Task Manager, so I didn't need to kill anything. Restarted Zotero a…

@javierieh Zotfile has a preference setting that determines which file types it moves/renames automatically when the Connector downloads a file: Tools\Zotfile Preferences\Advanced Settings\Only work with the following file types. Even if you have "…

When you ask Zotero to import the annotations they are removed from the PDF. If you want them to remain there, you should not import them. They would still be visible in the Zotero PDF reader, but locked. Conversely, any annotations created in Zoter…
-
The split pane does not currently have the same functionality (highlighting etc) as the original pane. It's really just for viewing.
-
You could use the Audio Recording item type, and enter those details in the Format field.
-
You could also use Zotfile to move all attachments in those archived collections to linked files (in Zotfile's Custom Location, either locally or a cloud location). They would then no longer be synced to Zotero's servers (so would not be available …
-
I do think some extra forum structure might provide more scope for discussing broader topics like "best practices for collections". Because I think most people probably just make up how they organize things as they go along, and are not sure if they…

A simple way to manage Zotfile's moving of PDF attachments in an *existing* large Zotero library to the Zotfile linked Custom Location is to do it in smaller chunks ... select all the A's, then right click Manage Attachments\Rename and Move, wait fo…
-
It sounds like that PDF is a standalone attachment. You need to give it a parent item so that metadata can be added: https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#standalone_attachments_and_parent_items
-
To be clear, you didn't really 'mess up'. As stated earlier, you just needed to complete the setup for your new computer - since PDFs are at different locations on each computer ... that is, set the Linked Attachment Base Directory under Edit\Prefer…
-
Do you have the wrongly capitalized article titles stored in the item data in sentence case as they should be ? https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/sentence_casing
-
Sorry I don't know any way to get the linked PDFs in the javascript list selected in Zotero. Adding the capability to search for linked PDFs in Advanced Search would be the best way to address that, ie a new option to set Attachment File Type is Lin…
-
The Zutilo addon can apparently add a shortcut for Zotfile's 'Move and rename attachments'. Set under Tools\Zutilo Preferences\Shortcuts.
-
I don't think it's possible to do that with an advanced search. But this code run under Tools\Developer\Run Javascript will get you a list of PDF files that are in local storage (and are in the Zotero database): var datadir = Zotero.DataDirectory.…

Edit: written at the same time as the above post ;) Most people do this with tags. Either manually applied, or with the zotero-tag addon below which assigns /unread and /read tags automatically. https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-tag You can cr…

The following saved search works for me (Zotero 6.0.23, Windows 10): Tag/does not contain/(leave empty) Show Only Top-Level Items ticked.
-
I agree. I have always thought 'All Notes' appearing under that heading is incongruous. Also the fact that the '+' icon for All Notes only creates Standalone *unfiled* notes is a further incongruity. Maybe there is a use case for needing to see all …
-
I can also confirm that the latest release version of Cita v0.4.0 (by @diegodlh ) is not working with Zotero 6.0.22. The Cita preferences panel does not appear in Tools\Preferences, nor does its tab show up in the right pane. Cita beta versions are …

If you just want that final result - a list of all journal names including article counts for each - you can use the javascript here, run in Zotero under Tools\Developer\Run Javascript: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/77225/to-extract-journals-…
