That sounds like an unrelated issue. The issue here did not cause LyX to crash. Also, a workaround was added to LyZ back in December. You can open an issue at https://github.com/willsALMANJ/lyz/issues if you like.

In case anyone ends up here instead of the LyZ GitHub page -- LyZ 3.0.2 checks items in its database with ID's starting with 0_ and changes them to 1_ to avoid this issue. For what it's worth, LyZ was updated and tested for Zotero 5.0 shortly after…

The change was that Zutilo didn't pass Mozilla's automatic compatibilty test for Firefox 55 (maybe they changed the test so XUL addons don't pass automatically any more), so I had to mark it as compatible manually. I marked it as compatible through …

Hi Mark, it is possible to bind any command with KeyConfig. The context menus are partially defined in ZoteroPane.xul (https://github.com/zotero/zotero/blob/master/chrome/content/zotero/zoteroPane.xul) and partially dynamically generated in ZoteroP…

Bob, there was a bug in Zutilo 2.0.0. Please update to 2.0.1 and it should work again. Automatic updates should take you from 2.0.0 to 2.0.1 also.

There is some discussion about Group Libraries in this thread: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/28694 At some point in the future, Group Libraries will probably support relative attachment paths, but I don't know how high of a priority…

sharachchandra, when you link a pdf file to a Zotero item as a linked file attachment, the pdf file on your computer is not moved. If you have a Base directory set for relative attachment paths in Zotero's preferences, Zotero will save the linked f…

There are several ways to create a new item. The Zutilo instructions have the commands for creating an item from the current page using Zotero translation and for saving the current page as a web page item. For creating just a blank new item, …

I use Keyconfig with Zotero Standalone. You just have to access its interface by clicking on "Preferences" in the Add-ons Manager (Tools->Add-ons Manager to get to it, in OS X at least). Also, the latest version of Zutilo on GitHub ( https:…

Petr (the creator of LyZ) has passed maintenance of LyZ on to me. I'd be happy to patch this bug if anyone knows a solution for it (go here to submit a patch or suggestion: https://github.com/willsALMANJ/lyz). I will try to look around for a solut…

Update: the relative linked file attachments patch has been merged into Zotero. It will be included in version 3.1 which will be released by early April when Firefox 20 is released.

I updated Zutilo again to address the issue raised by hatepod above: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/zutilo-utility-for-zotero/versions/1.1.16 Again, the patch that I submitted for review should be cross-platform compliant. …

oldenborger, I am glad that fixed your problem. A more general fix is now available in version 1.1.15 here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/zutilo-utility-for-zotero/versions/?page=1#version-1.1.15 That should allow you to …
-
oldenborger, sorry for the trouble. I just tested this on my computer, and I am seeing the same behavior as you. I don't know how I hadn't noticed this before. Perhaps, a recent change to another part of the plugin somehow created this bug. I wi…
-
oldenberger, I would think it would work. Right-click on an attachment and choose Zutilo->"Show attachment paths". A popup will appear showing the full path to that attachment. When you do "Modify attachment paths" you should enter the part of…

The current version of the patch makes no reference to path separators and uses the nsIFile (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/XPCOM_Interface_Reference/nsIFile) XPCOM component, which should be platform-independent, to handle attachment path…

eagutt, does the menu not come up or does it come up greyed out? Right now, I have the menu items set to be disabled if you select attachments or notes because the plugin's functions only work on regular items. I suppose it might be probably bette…

Thanks, adamsmith. It is nice to know the date of release. Matthew Dodd (and anyone else interested), I updated my plugin to include the tag pasting function I described above. It has been a while since I updated it, so let me know if you hav…

Hi eagutt, I made a function in my Zotero plugin (called Zutilo) that does exactly what you are asking for. You can get the .xpi file for the plugin at this site: https://github.com/willsALMANJ/Zutilo In the README (also visible on t…

Matthew, I think Gracile is right about the current state of the patch and how it will make it into the main release. It is possible to make the plugin allow pasting multiple tags into an item.... My original intent was to implement the multiple-t…
-
The pull request was reviewed by one of the Zotero developers but is waiting to be reviewed by the other one because the patch modified areas of the code overseen by both. I am not sure if it is on the developer's list of things to do. I don't thi…

Currently in Zotero, you can select any number of items and then drag them onto a tag in the tag selector in the lower left to have that tag added to all of the items. If you want multiple tags, you have to drag the items over for each tag separate…
-
No problem. Thanks for pointing out that the patch was waiting for me. Otherwise I don't know how long I would have left the patch sitting idle. I know the developers are short of time, so I didn't want to bother asking them about the status of t…

I am the patch author. The only change is the deletion of one "while" statement because the code always exits the loop after one iteration any way. I did not realize that this change was holding up the review of the patch. I was waiting to receiv…

It is probably best to try one of the other solutions suggested above rather than waiting for the patch. An unrelated patch I submitted five months ago was accepted around three months ago (if I recall correctly) and is still waiting for the next m…

adamsmith, I am just curious -- is everything in the master (zotero/zotero on github) scheduled for the 3.5 release? Since the current release is 3.0.6, I am just wondering about 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4. Or maybe you meant 3.0.5? Currently that pa…

rgwhite, one problem was that the plugin had Firefox 9.0 set as the maximum version. I changed this so that there is no maximum version now (it is hard to keep up with all of the Firefox updates). I am not sure if the version mismatch would g…

Just checking -- would the devs be willing to implement a patch for this if submitted? I think I could do this, if so.

Oops, I meant to put the link to the plugin in the post: https://github.com/willsALMANJ/Zutilo Edit: And now I see that I could have just edited the post above.... By the way, be careful using that the attachment renaming part of the …

I have a function in my plugin that might be helpful. I made it to deal with semi-permanent relocation of a database, so it just renames the beginning of the attachment paths matching the input path ("c:\data\") with another input path ("/mnt/ntfs/…
