The thing I fixed is the problem reported by the OP: the export option being disabled when there were no direct child items of the collection, even when there were subcollections with items. Items in subcollections being added to the top collection…

You'd have to be more specific about the problem you're experiencing. https://www.zotero.org/support/reporting_problems#provide_steps_to_reproduce

@fbennett: Yeah, so that's really a problem with the site itself — and at least for me it was already broken in a different way. As you say, we reopen the popup on the same page, as long as 1) the last save attempt succeeded, 2) there hasn't been a…

On a Mac you would just do it from the Print dialog. In Firefox, with the options to print background colors and images, it does a decent job of saving a long Facebook page to a PDF. (You have to scroll in the page first to load any content you want…

By "in Firefox" you mean when opening from the Zotero application, or are you still using Zotero 4 for Firefox? If you're still on Zotero 4 you'd want to upgrade as a first step, but snapshots of JavaScript-heavy web applications like Facebook ulti…

(Might not even need to use a saved search here. "Snapshot" in the search bar in All Fields & Tags mode might be sufficient. If it matches another item you can also deselect it manually with Ctrl/Cmd-click after Select All.)
-
@nbrefzot: Can we also see a Debug ID for trying to set the Base Directory (assuming, as adamsmith says, you're actually using linked files).
-
I suggested starting a new thread with screenshots for the filepicker issue, but yes, my instructions in the other thread are perfectly safe.
-
There's no danger of losing your library. If for some reason you weren't able to set a new location, you could just move things back to the previous location.
-
Those are just part of webpage snapshots that Zotero saves. In older versions of macOS, those will show up in All My Files, which is a fairly useless view that's been discontinued in the latest version of macOS. If you don't want webpage snapshots,…

4.0.29.17 They'll need to upgrade to Zotero 5, which will likely fix this.
-
@Tim_BE: We received the ZIP and will take a look. If you're getting a bounce notification, don't worry about it.
-
I've fixed this for the next version — thanks for reporting.
-
To start, we need a Report ID and the exact error message.
-
What do you mean by "can't find"?
-
I'm still not understanding the problem with the file picker, but you could open a new thread for that and link to a screenshot/screencast that demonstrates the problem. I need to know that there is an option to choose a custom location on the start…
-
@suckale: How does it lengthen the time? It's all on your computer. As long as you have Zotero open, saving should be basically the same speed.
-
All of your items were moved to the trash yesterday, either by you or by someone with access to your library on another computer (e.g., a public computer where you left your account linked). You should be able to go to the trash, select all items, …
-
Do styles actually show up in the Create Bibliography window? If so, what's selected? Do you have your Zotero data directory in the default location or somewhere else (e.g., in a cloud storage folder or a network drive)? If the default location, t…

[JavaScript Error: "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsILocalFile.create]" {file: "chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/file.js" line: 940}] Can you explain exactly what you're trying to do, step by step, and what's happening…
-
6,000 isn't particularly big, though you'll want to make sure you're checking the total count, including child items. And then we'll want to see a Debug ID for an individual operation that's slow.
-
@khaden: The ZotFile plugin can extract your PDF annotations into Zotero notes, and that feature will likely be ported to Zotero in the future. In our view being able to use a PDF viewer of your choice, and that's optimized for your platform, is a …

What version of Firefox? What exactly is happening when you try to download the connector?
-
I'm a bit confused here. Is your only question whether you can save snapshots? I thought you were having other problems saving? Various parts of saving won't work as well when you're saving to zotero.org. That's why we say saving to the desktop app…
-
No, you should be able to select any folder. But don't worry about this. Just make the change I said, with Zotero closed. When you start it back up, the custom data directory will be missing, and it'll ask you whether you want to use the default lo…
-
On the other hand, I do not like web-connected software, especially software that does things without telling me. To be clear, the "web-connected" part is the fact that there's a browser built in, and when you save items it connects to the open web.…
-
And what's happening, exactly? Based on that debug output, you should be getting a popup window with a zotero.org page to create a key for the connector, but that's the end of the output, so I'm not clear on what's happening after that.
-
Can you provide a Debug ID for an attempt that's failing?
-
@upena: Can you provide a Debug ID from the connector for a save attempt that fails?
-
Given that 5.0.20 was an early release of a major new version and that there've been thirty Zotero point releases since then containing a large number of bug fixes (including various improvements to profile/data-dir handling), you're definitely not …
