Merging Option: Only add missing fields from new entries #15

Closed endfreude closed 5 months ago

It would be nice to have the following option for merging: Use first added data BUT add missing fields from latest added data.

My current use case: Adding the abstact field from new data (which unfortunately does not contain the publication field)

ChenglongMa commented 5 months ago

Got it!

I will add this option in the next version.

Thanks for your feedback!

It seems that the plugin can't work in the new version of Zotero beta57 ？

ChenglongMa commented 5 months ago

Really? Thanks for pointing out this issue.

I'll check it soon.

Thanks.

Apollo7777777 commented 5 months ago

sorry, it can work in the beta57. I accidentally turned it off

ChenglongMa commented 5 months ago

No worries. Thanks for your attention :)

Hi @endfreude,

I've launched v2.2.0 with the functions you suggested integrated.

Instead of adding a new option, I implemented it universally: Regardless of the chosen option, the plugin now extracts information from duplicate items and fills in missing fields in the retained item.

Feel free to share any feedback or suggestions for further improvement.

Appreciate your valuable input 💖!

Best regards, Chenglong
