CSL does have a 'classic' item type That's interesting. How does one get this to work exactly? Does it only work for specific citation styles? Is there anything in the Zotero documentation on it? (»Item types and fields« in the Knowledge Base has no…

This would also be very helpful for me, and probably for all of us with larger libraries. Today I added a cross-reference to a note and clicked on it; suddenly I’m in My Library instead of the small subsubsubcollection I had just been working in. Su…

Bump. Any chance of a change to the way the abstracts are being inherited?
-
New book sections created with this new function are inheriting the abstracts of their parent items (i.e., a contribution to a conference proceedings volume inherits the description of the entire volume). That doesn’t seem entirely optimal.
-
But then one also needs to save just the PDF pages for the chapter/paper somehow, to attach to the item. Not necessarily. You can also copy the item link of the attached file using Zutilo and attach it as a URI to your chapter entry. If you then rep…

On the question of whether book sections should automatically be related to other book sections: it makes the list of related items very cluttered, and as far as I can see unnecessarily so. My standard use case is that I have a chapter in a collecti…
-
One marginally annoying thing about the Zutilo-operation is that it makes a book section inherit subsequent related items from the book even after it has been generated, so that every book section ends up being related to every other book section as…

I'm sure there are plenty of improvements already planned for Zotero's pdf viewer, and they'll doubtless be great. One point I'd like to make about this, though, is that for those of us whose pdf-libraries are extensive and already heavily annotated…

I've been using coloured tags almost exclusively as status/process indicators ever since they were introduced; I find them pretty adequate for this purpose. It might be nice to be able to sort by them, though.

Since your issue concerns the SEP directly, I assume you're aware of this: https://plato.stanford.edu/support/friends.html

You want to open an html file with a pdf reader, whether Zotero's or anyone else's? Not an option, as far as I'm aware. Your only alternative here is going to be to print the snapshot to pdf and then save that to Zotero in place of the html file. A…

When you say it saves "something" in Zotero, what is the "something"? You're following the instructions at https://www.zotero.org/support/adding_items_to_zotero#saving_webpages, yes?

I like this plugin. One thing I have noticed however is that the dark mode disables the function of selecting an entry and pressing alt on a Mac to see what subfolders it is in. In light mode, the subfolder(s) containing the entry light up; in dark …

»Ursprünglich erschienen« (or »Zuerst erschienen«) was the formulation when I wrote my thesis (ebenfalls auf Deutsch).
-
Suspected as much. Thanks for taking a look anyway.
-
Right. I suspect the issue here is that the pdf is not connected to the entry directly, but via an open-pdf link. Here is what it looks like: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jtza4hot8ymysyq/Bildschirmfoto 2021-12-12 um 00.42.25.png?dl=0 I want to open th…

(Bumping this because I've just realised that my original description of the problem wasn’t accurate.)
-
I too would find this helpful.
-
This looks fascinating, and I will be keen to try it out when I get a moment. Is there any chance it could be made to work in both directions, i.e., also write to Zotero from Notion?
-
A way to convert external annotations to Zotero annotations is going to be crucial for those of us shifting in the middle of ongoing work from an external reader to Zotero’s one. I can’t see myself adopting the latter as a regular part of my workflo…
-
GoodReader also has this.
-
Does this depend on the DOI? I have numerous cases of this problem for older reviews without assigned DOI: although entered as articles, Zotero lists them all in the duplicates folder together with their books, although it does then recognise when I…
-
Papership will still connect to a Zotero library and synchronize the items of metadata it has fields for. If the item has a URL and no attached file, Papership will (in my experience) reliably open the web location in its main window. If you do have…

There used to be a plugin that offered this, but at some point it died. It's a feature I'd very much like to see come to core Zotero one day.
-
I support this request: tabs would be very helpful.
-
An additional problem might also be that Zotero often flags items with identical titles as duplicates. Zotero’s citation behaviour expects reviews, for example, to have the same titles as the works they deal with (adding ‘review of’ if there is a re…
-
This looks great! Let's imagine I want to see if I can get it working on a Mac: how would I go about doing that?
-
Pulling this back up to say that I'm seeing this behaviour as well. Since realizing a while ago that Zotero expects the title of a review to be the same as that of the work reviewed, I've been removing additions like "review of" from my entries when…
-
There are two different logics at work here, which is why the solution can only be a compromise. Zotero operates on a logic of citation: its primary units are citable entries. In a collection of contributions by different authors, or of papers by th…

Thanks: this works well.
