Does removing items from reports using customizer really removes them? #57

I'm having recently an issue when trying to generate report from my notes, cleaning them to my liking and then using pandoc to generate latex files. The issue that I'm having is the following. The html report looks like this

But, after generating latex using pandoc and compiling to pdf I see the following

Meaning all the unnecessary stuff that I had removed using the report customizer show in the final compiled pdf.

Any idea why is that happening? Are the removed things somehow somewhere cached maybe?

Did you save by clicking the disk icon? Before saving, the elements are only removed with CSS, and pandoc is unlikely to pick up on that. But after save, the elements should really not be present.

Great to know that, because it actually leads me to the other problem that I'm having, it seems that the save disk icon is not working.

I've sent a debug report id: M2FNH7PV-euc Could you have a look at it plz?

I've tried multiple times repeating the same process, i.e. removing items then pressing save icon (seemed not to work), closing and then generating report again looked like items had been removed but when using pandoc again everything seems to not have been removed at all.

Tried the above process couple of times but still getting the same result.

@retorquere Any updates regarding Report ID: M2FNH7PV-euc? Thanks!

I had forgotten that Zotero had made changes to the internal HTTP server that forbids browsers connecting to it, and the report acts like a browser. Can you send a new debug log? M2FNH7PV-euc has just expired.

@retorquere I just submitted a new report through the "send BBibtex report" utility. Let me know if it works? Thanks!

I can't tell who sent which report, I'll need the ID.
