    by rnrnmnn · January 14, 2026
    If you need someone to test the plugin , let me know.
  2. Bibtex and Zotero version issues on win10 & OS10.13

    by penworks · January 13, 2026
    I generated a new bibtex list of sources, Mac Zot v6.26 would not import it. I tested the list on a Win 10 Zot portable 6.0.30 and it would not import it there either. I checked the validity of the li
  3. Title casing is different with hyphen vs. hyphen-minus

    by warwickmm · January 12, 2026
    If a title contains a hyphen-minus (0x2D, the minus key on the keyboard), then the words surrounding the hyphen-minus are both title-cased as expected in the bibliography (Chicago Manual of Style 18th

    I can run any other test you suggest...

    by warguelles · January 8, 2026
    I can make a test... I will first instal the new BBT version (manually?), then will run the update to the newest Z8-beta to start the migration.
  6. Please, I need to downgrade back to version 8.0-beta.21

    by emilianoeheyns · January 8, 2026
    I have a test build at https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-better-bibtex/issues/3362, it would be nice to have confirmation, but it passes my test suites, so I intend to release after midnight. Every

    No, items aren't loaded after those, but all of the migrated items will be loaded after the migration is done (with the test I explained on the dev list).

    by emilianoeheyns · January 8, 2026
    Ah I don't know what the final situation would be, I have so far interrupted the test before it could finish.

    by dstillman · January 8, 2026
    I wasn't offering a database — just asking if you had one or could make one to test the performance. If you can reproduce items with "Citation Key:" in Extra before the migration ending up with an emp

    by emilianoeheyns · January 7, 2026
    So that wouldn't trigger BBT during the migration, just after. I have a test that's running now. but are you calling item.loadAllData() every time you work with an item (e.g., to generate a key)?

    I'll set up a test with a migration on the 24k. How does the extra migration work? Batch or one by one?

    by warguelles · January 7, 2026
    Don't worry, Zotero is an incredible tool for our work, and I'm happy to help! Do you have a database you can test this with, or can you create one with thousands of Extra values? I can explain how to

    by dstillman · January 7, 2026
    @emilianoeheyns: Are you testing an actual migration of the Extra field, or just your own code?
  14. Please, I need to downgrade back to version 8.0-beta.21

    by emilianoeheyns · January 7, 2026
    I've just ran the 24k test with persistence disabled and as I expected, that is merely fractions of a second faster than with persistence. I could technically hand that off so it would not show up in
  15. Please, I need to downgrade back to version 8.0-beta.21

    by dstillman · January 7, 2026
    @warguelles: It'd be better to test with just BBT enabled so we can be clear that that's what's causing the slowdown. Otherwise yes.

    by dstillman · January 7, 2026
    @emilianoeheyns: Right, but it would hang while showing the journal article icon while plugins are processing the Notifier updates, so this is absolutely due to BBT or another plugin (and @warguelles
  17. Zotero freezing on Mac

    by geoffarsenal · January 7, 2026
    I just tried creating a new test Word doc again. I was able to insert two citations successfully, but the application froze on the third (same as the first test I mentioned above). Definitely seems to

    by warguelles · January 6, 2026
    If you have time, could you test how long the update takes with all plugins disabled? (Auto-sync disabled, a copy of the database, etc.) For me, in a test library, it migrates fields from 2,400 items
