Zotero.Proxies is undefined #31

Closed danmichaelo closed 8 years ago

danmichaelo commented 8 years ago

When I press "Test Regex" nothing happens. Looking into the console, the following error is printed when pressing the button:

TypeError: Zotero.Proxies is undefined
scaffold.js:465:7

When trying to run detectWeb or doWeb I get

TypeError: Zotero.Translators.save is not a function
scaffold.js:343:3

I'm using Scaffold 3.2.3 with Firefox 45.0.1 and Zotero 4.0.29.9 on Mac

Closing Zotero standalone and opening Zotero in Firefox seems to help

dstillman commented 8 years ago

Scaffold only works with Zotero for Firefox — when Standalone is open, Zotero for Firefox is just running in connector mode and the code Scaffold depends on isn't available.

(We'll have to figure out what happens to Scaffold when there's no more full Zotero for Firefox, but for the moment this is expected behavior.)

(Scaffold could display a better error message here, but since Zotero for Firefox may be going away soon, it's probably not worth bothering and better to focus on how it will work with Standalone.)
