I would like the collections to which an item belongs to *always* be made displayed, whether by highlighting, or in some other way. Seems a bit odd to me that this isn't a Perhaps instead the behaviour might be that by pressing the ALT/CTRL/Co…

Dan, thanks for the response. Yes I think the option to create new from selection is the better idea, after all that is the reason behind my request. If you wanted to take it further, the toolbar icon could behave as a drop-down to offer that choi…

Apologies, meant to add: Zotero standalone, ver 3.07.

Even better, if I have more than one window of the browser open, it uses the last-used window to open links (rather than something like the parent browser or first one opened). Sweet.

Sorry, I just discovered my mistake. You're right, it does use the system default.

adam: sorry I wasn't being clear. It's fine, I can search child items. Dan: I get what I have to do now, thanks for the added information. Just to recap: do a search, hit the '-' on my keyboard, then I can select all and drag away. I can …

OK then it's obtuse. Well, to me anyway! To a developer it might make sense, but to me - an end-user - it's unintuitive. Your addendum about search matches makes it even more confusing to me. What if I want my search term to include matches in …

Ah you are right, the child items are selected. But that is absurd! If I am to select multiple items, I will click the first then shift+click the last, which will also select any visible child items. I was careful to study this by creating a n…

I think this is a bit of a bug? If I select several items that have child items displayed (i.e. the '-' is showing) then I cannot drag them to a collection. If I hide all the child items, then I can. Is there a plan to provide another way…
-
Didn't know there was one! Right, that's solved it. Thanks for your patience Dan.

(a) No I didn't relink it yet, as I deleted the item from Zotero, there's nothing to link it to. Are you suggesting that I should? How would that matter now there's no longer an item? (b) Yes, emptied the rubbish bin. (c) Perhaps the datab…

Thanks for the help Dan. I've still got two local copies within the Zotero data dir. One of them had an illegal character, so I renamed it, restarted Firefox, synced again, and got the error again. I then went through my (home) filesystem (find…

Weirdly, I've removed the item from my library, and I still get the error message. It's not in my online library; I suppose it's failed to even sync the citation. I've checked the 'trash', nothing there. Is there perhaps a config file I can delete?

Hi, thanks for the help! I've only just been able to do this (move the journal file) - and I'm happy to report that it fixed the problem :) Before I moved it I noticed that there was a permissions problem with it. It had become owned by root so…

Apologies again, sent again with startup output. Ben.
-
Sorry! You're right, it wasn't via the menus. I opened Zotero via the Firefox menus: Tools > Zotero then clicked the sync icon. It twirled for a bit and then displayed an error icon next to it. I clicked the error icon to get the Err…
-
Yep, still getting it. I got the report ID by going through the Firefox menus: Tools > Add-ons > Extensions > Zotero (preferences) Ben.

I discovered how to get a report ID, so here it is: 1723592556

@gregsharp (or anyone else able to respond): I run WinXP and would love a compiled version of bibtool, but I have no compiler or skill in that regard, and no cygwin. Can you (or anyone...) publish or email to me or link to a compiled version? …
