The entire library has too many items. It would be a nice feature to have. I should go with latex and place citations in a collection in the first place. Fortunatly there is only about a hundred citations, I will find them one by one. Thank you!

I mean collection. There is a emacs packge called zotelo which can sync bibiliography data of a zotero collection within emacs. It's more efficient if the collection is small. There is a firefox plugin called keysnail which is super good, I don't…

If the file is too big zotero takes a long time to respond if all file dropped on it are copied to separate folders in the storage folder. If zotero can hardlink the file dropped on it, then it is unnecessary to do that.
-
To set the base directory is to use relative path for the attachment, in case I need to move all file to another place.

Thank you! I am just backing up.

Looks like firefox sync doesn't include zotero profile. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data#w_what-information-is-stored-in-my-profile

Thank you Mr Smith. I put all things in the base directory so I can copy just one folder to backup or use FreeFileSync to do the backup. I used to sync the attachments using dropbox, but moved all file out of dropbox after reading your other post …

Can some one show me how to automatically retrieve the meta data (if there is one) of all pdf file that doesn't have a parent entry and when pdf files are dropped on zotero? It is tedious if I have to get the meta data of pdf files already in the li…

Is it a good idea to automatically retrieve the meta data when pdf files are dropped on zotero? It is tedious if I need to get the meta data of pdf files already in the library, I have to select them right click and select find matadata. I want t…

The link helps. Thank you Aurimas.

Is it possible for zotero to create a hardlink for the files that manually attached? I use zotero to manage books since it can search for book info by isbn, but some pdfs are quite big, when I add the attachment manually, zotero makes a copy in th…

quote there have been a whole number of problems caused by the fact that syncing using dropbox can corrupt your zotero database if you have Firefox open on both computers at the time of syncing. So is it fine if I only have one computer wor…

What should I do? I already put my zotero folders in dropbox? And I have used it this way for an year, everything works fine. Can you explain more clearly why I have the risk of collapsing my data base? Thank you!

I just learned zotero is written in javascript, can anybody show me what I need to do to design my own or modify the default zotero stand alone gui? And what part of the source code on github is for the standalone? https://github.com/zotero/zo…

Or maybe just like in endnote plugin for word, ther is a command "insert slected citations", the drag and drop method inset the whole reference which is not so useful, and it is not updatable.
-
Just find out Zotero can't find fulltext if I import the citation from a RIS file, though the ris file do have a link to the same web page, maybe that's the reason the find fulltext command is missing.
-
When I merge two citations which have two copies of exactly the same fulltext attached, the duplicated citations disappear but I get two duplicated pdfs. So I still think that "1 Add a find fulltext button, let user have the choice to download fullt…

Thank you guys! 1"drag a (direct) PDF link onto the item in the Zotero items list to save it as a child attachment." this partly solved problem 1. 2 the task bar and menu bar can be merged, as you can see in the picture. http://postimage.or…

Thanks adamsmith. But I think: 1 What if I want to download the fulltexts for items that was added when the automatical down of pdfs was unchecked, it won't hurt if the download fulltext command is placed in the right click context menu or pu…
