Release 3.8.6 + Java-REST-Client update


Dear BibSonomy users,

right before Christmas we decided to release BibSonomy Version 3.8.6. This minor update includes a couple of bugfixes and minor improvements. For example:

  • Adding publications by DOI is now working more reliable
  • BibTex mass-export now contains your tags as keywords
  • Updated existing scrapers and added new ones (e.g. academic.oup.com)
  • ...

Beside that we updated our Java-REST-Client. Spaces in search terms are no longer replaced by „+“. In case you are using the Java-REST-client we recommend to update to the latest version.

If you find something not working as you think it should, drop us a message either per Twitter or mail :)

Happy Tagging!
Mario

Firefox and Chrome Extension Update

Firefox Quantum was released last month. We are happy to announce that version 1.10.1 of our "BibSonomy Buttons" extension is fully compatible with the new Firefox version.

Firefox now supports the Browser Extensions standard, the same API that our Chrome extension uses. We adapted our Chrome browser extension to also work with Firefox to only develop one extension for both browser.

Furthermore, we also updated the shortcut feature. Instead of using our own implementation, we now use the commands API. The default shortcuts are:
  • myBibsonomy: Ctrl+Shift+Y (macOS: Ctrl+Shift+H)
  • save bookmark: Ctrl+Shift+X (macOS: Ctrl+Shift+B)
  • save publication: Ctrl+Shift+V (macOS: Ctrl+Shift+P)
We also published a new version of our Chrome extension. Please visit the Chrome Web Store for more information.

Happy browsing and tagging,
Daniel
