I think that I suggested on the developer list that this is exposed through the API so that the clients can choose which collection to import to. (e.g. Zotero could set the bookmarklet collection based on what the user has selected in Zotero)
-
This has been discussed before, if not on the forums, then at least on the developer mailing list. This would be a nice to have feature, but I am not sure if it is on the roadmap yet.
-
(Removing a collection does not remove the items) You can also export the items to a file and then delete them. This has the downside that it will break the linkage between the citations in your documents and the items in Zotero because item ID…
-
One workaround would be to start a group library just for yourself and copy the items there and then delete them from your "My library".

Box.com works well with ZotPad, so you might try that. (It is free now.) Just configure the WebDAV address as https://www.box.com/dav/zotero (http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/webdav_services)

Are you using Zotero standalone of Zotero for Firefox and which operating system? Where exactly do you drag and drop the files? Here is an example of how drag and drop works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaNPS3Z86EQ

ZotPad is now available for free. The only thing that has changed is the price Future versions will contain features that require in-app purchase. (Anyone who has paid for ZotPad will get these features for free.) Read more here: http://www.zotpa…

Why would you need that kind of feature?
-
Couldn't use just use tags instead?
-
This is not possible. If you have a custom field in the citation, how would Zotero know what to do with that field when generating the list of references. What kind of use case do you have for this functionality?
-
This sounds like a good idea and not too hard to implement.
-
Yes, this would be very difficult to implement in a way that does not cause problems. I know two people that have this working fairly well, but if it caused problems for even 1% of users, then it would be a support nightmare.

adamsmith: You can use Dropbox for groups file storage. I know at least two people who use this succesfully. But I would not recommend this setup to anyone.
-
I could think of at least two reasons: 1) The problem that you describe is already well addressed with Zotero storage. There are other, important problems that do not have solutions yet and these are therefore prioritized. 2) Zotero is funded by s…

This kind of syncronization would involve either 1) servers talking to one another (who manages the connections) or 2) allowing people outside of UoA to have accounts for the UoA server so that Zotero clients can sync there directly. I do not s…
-
This would be technically and administratively really difficult. Someone at UoA wuold need to define a policy and administer which servers their server would syncronize with. Any competent IT department would not allow their users to define which se…
-
You would not necessarily need to build the entire saved search, you could just compare the selected item to all search predicates. But I do not see this happening any time soon unless someone submits a patch for this.
-
I have contributed patches, but I am not Zotero employee. Zotero accepts third party patches, but you should email your plans to zotero-dev mailing list to get feedback before you start implementing this. It is easily weeks of coding and testing.

jcrisco and everyone else, if you have problems with ZotPad, check the support site available at https://zotpad.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/186322-getting-support Anyone needing personal support will receive it, but you should start suppo…

There is keyboard shortcut to toggle the tag selector http://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/shortcut_keys You can adjust the size of the tag selector by pulling the bar up. I do agree that a bit larger bar would be a good idea. (Maybe one th…

Joscha: Wouldn't what citizen_x do be possible in one of the two ways: 1) Hard links 2) Keep the file in the original directory, but create symbolic links based on collections I am not saying that you should do this, and this is probably really co…

ZoteroQuickLook support has been moved to UserVoice. Please check this article for how to submit support requests and I will take a look at the issue: https://zoteroquicklook.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/235503-getting-support

The citation style is a document level setting and cannot be set on a per citation basis. What is the use case for two different styles in a document? Why do you need that?
-
You should check out Zotfile. It does exactly what you need with its "send to tablet" feature.
-
This is a matter of preference. Collections can have duplicate names, and this is not even confusing as long as they do not share a parent collection. One advantage is also that collections have a hierarchical structure where as tags do not. I perso…
-
The way I use citations I make a clear distinction between a. the style as such (e.g. how to sort first name, last name etc.) and b. the fact whether quotes come inline or in footnotes. Zotero does not manage quotes, so I assume that you mean citati…

I use Google reader where I have a lot of journal RSS feeds organized into folders. Works well and is lightweight and easy solution.

The first question is what is the problem that you are trying to solve by replicating Zotero data into access? I do not known what the problem that you are trying to solve is, but developing against the Zotero APIs directly would seem a more straigh…
