Do you use Zotero? Do you wish that your folder collections showed all the items in their various subfolders? I do. And there is a hidden setting in Zotero to allow you to change the behavior.
Here’s the official explanation:
By default, each of your collections displays only the items you have placed there. When you place a collection inside another collection, the contents of the second collection are not added to the first. If you enable recursive collections, items from subcollections will appear in all higher-level collections.
To change this behavior, type the following into your Firefox URL bar:
about:config
Be careful when you are on this special page. Firefox stores all of its settings here, and you can really mess things up if you go poking around without knowing what you are doing.
In the “filter” bar at the top of the page type:
zotero.recursive
You should see a line pop up that says:
extensions.zotero.recursiveCollections
Set the “value” of this setting to “true,” which you can do by double-clicking the line.
Now your folders are recursive! You can find other “hidden” settings, and what they do, here.
