Manually removing plugins

sdflewrit783 · 2024-08-09T14:14:15+00:00

I tried installing raw versions of Zutilo and DOI Manager and see errors in the console.

How can one remove all traces of plugins by hand?Nothing is visible in the UI but the errors suggest some bits are remaining.

Thanks

Shouldn't be necessary, but you can manually delete the relevant .xpi's files in the extensions folder in your 188BET靠谱吗Zotero profile folder
They'd look like this, e.g.

I am asking because I am getting this error but the plugin I am installing seems to have no such lines in the js code.I found and deleted a folder there related to DOI Manager but the effect is the same.Any other place things can be hiding in?

What do you mean by "Nothing is visible in the UI"?Any installed plugins should show in Tools → Plugins, and you can uninstall them from there.

I understand that they should, but they did not.Probably because they were not fully finished, this is beyond my understanding.This referred to Zutilo.188BET靠谱吗I have reinstalled Zotero, and those errors are gone.Previously I could see nothing in the UI but relevant errors in the console.

But the problem with DOI Manager remains.

sdflewrit783 · 2024-08-11T02:49:41+00:00

Also, is there a way to know what generates those errors?

188BET靠谱吗I have two plugins now, DOI Manager and Zotero Preview...

I think this is the plugin, actually, int eh case of DOI Manager, or so it seems...

I don't really know what you're saying here.

188BET靠谱吗If a plugin isn't showing up in Tools → Plugins after you've installed it, that would be a Zotero bug, and we'd want to see a screenshot of that.

If there's a problem with a plugin, you'll need to contact the plugin developer for help.

You don't need to keep posting screenshots of the Error Console.We only ever want a Report ID.

This is a new installation on top of Z6 on a different computer.Do these errors look OK to you?ID: D344701120

I can't help you if you don't respond to what I say.I still have no idea what you're talking about in this thread.

You have no extensions installed in that debug log.

188BET靠谱吗Well, I have been working to resolve issues with three plugins: Zotero Preview, Zutilo, and DOI Manager.The first seems fine, the other two are in the works by the developers, so we can put that aside.

My last message checks whether the errors shown below are expected and should be ignored.

My suspision is that addon.xpi refers to my attempt to install Zutilo from GitHub.

There is nothing listed in Plugins.

Oh, and I presumed that the log would have the same info as I see in the error console, not sure how I can view it now to compare.

You do not have any plugins installed.Messages in the console are for developers — you shouldn't try to interpret them.
