 Changes in released versions of Zotero 5.0 are documented on this page. To follow development, see the [[https://github.com/zotero/zotero/commits/|commit log on GitHub]]. More recent changes may be available in a [[dev_builds|beta build]].
+===== Changes in 5.0.87 (May 12, 2020) =====
+  * Fixed "Creator names cannot be empty" upgrade error for certain values in item Extra fields (e.g., ''{:author: }'')
+  * Fixed oversized collection/search icons when editing a saved search on high-resolution screens
+  * In rare cases, if a database query failed, ''params.join is not a function'' could be shown instead of a proper error message
+===== Changes in 5.0.86 (May 9, 2020) =====
+  * Sped up large imports
+  * Restored the ability (from Zotero 4.0) to hold down a modifier key while dragging one or more items to the tag selector to remove tags
+    * Cmd-drag on macOS, Shift-drag on Windows/Linux
+  * Improved detection of invalid/dangerous data directory configurations
+    * Warn when the data directory is in Google Drive or OneDrive (in addition to Dropbox)
+    * Don't allow the Linked Attachment Base Directory to be set within the data directory
+    * Don't allow the data directory to be set to 'storage' or the Linked Attachment Base Directory
+  * Fixed a condition where local item changes wouldn't be uploaded until the next item edit after non-conflicting changes were merged
+  * Fixed a crash when opening the tag selector by dragging up if closed at startup
+  * Fixed tag selector not showing child item tags in "Title, Creator, Year" mode (since 5.0.83)
+  * Fixed a problem where actions depending on styles or translators could fail if an update server was unavailable at startup
+  * Fixed Shift-Tab to move to previous field in Title and Extra fields
+  * Removed several redundant lines in Extra on RDF import (e.g., "Reporter")
+  * Fixed a condition where all items list columns could become enabled
+  * Fixed item selection from timeline
+  * Don't copy cross-library links when duplicating an item
+    * Previously, if you duplicated an item, modified it to represent a different source, and     dragged it to another library where you had already copied the original item, the new item wouldn't be transferred.
+  * Don't allow Add Item by Identifier to create an item in a feed view
+    * Also fixed a sync error that could occur if an item created by identifier in a feed was dragged to a collection
+  * [Mac] Fixed 'false' filename after case-only rename
+  * Show an error if an attachment file couldn't be manually renamed
+  * Fixed "zoteroField[1] is undefined" error generating bibliography if a line in Extra started with a single letter followed by a colon
+  * Fixed sync error "Invalid data error for collection [key] in [library]: Unknown collection property 'dateAdded'"
+  * Fixed oversized collection/search icons in Advanced Search window on high-resolution screens
+  * Disabled click effects on disabled toolbar buttons in read-only views
+  * [Linux] Fixed problems with preferences window in tiling window managers
+  * Fixed Edit → Preferences not appearing in Breton and Gallego locales
+===== Changes in 5.0.85 (March 24, 2020) =====
+  * [Mac] Fixed potential "Word could not communicate with Zotero" error
+    * If Zotero was started the first time from a disk image rather than from Applications, the word processor plugins would be installed in a way that would prevent them from working later.
+  * Download remotely updated files in "as needed" file sync mode
+    * Previously, files updated remotely wouldn't be downloaded in "as needed" mode if a copy of the file already existed locally, and they could only be re-downloaded by deleting the file via Show File. This change causes remotely modified files that exist locally to be downloaded at sync time, even in "as needed" mode.
+    * Files modified remotely before this change won't be downloaded at sync time in "as needed" mode, but they'll now be re-downloaded on open.
+  * Full-text indexing improvements
+    * When using full-text content syncing, "Rebuild Index…" → "Index Unindexed Items" can now be used to force immediate processing of downloaded content
+    * Fixed "Unknown" full-text status when an item is reindexed remotely and the content matches the local content
+  * Allow saved searches to be edited or deleted even if they can't be loaded
+  * Fixed OPML feed import (since 5.0.78)
+  * Use Zotero fields (and not just CSL fields) entered in Extra when generating citations
+  * When checking database integrity, detect and fix a condition that can cause some collections not to be displayed
+  * Fixed a potential hang when showing the collections containing an item
+  * Don't open a second copy of Zotero if the Zotero beta is running and a word processor plugin button is clicked while a plugin dialog is open
+  * Fixed the "Create Bibliography from Items" locale being used for Quick Copy if the Quick Copy locale was never changed from the default
+  * Parse a tab-delimited creator when only a single line is pasted
+===== Changes in 5.0.84 (February 27, 2020) =====
+  * Fixed sorting by Creator column for items with no authors and multiple editors (since 5.0.83)
+===== Changes in 5.0.83 (February 24, 2020) =====
+  * When saving, save fields not valid for the item type to Extra
+  * Fixed sorting by editor in Creator column in new installations (since 5.0.78)
+  * [Mac] Fixed some cases of word processor integration not loading at startup, resulting in "Word could not communicate with Zotero" errors
+  * Fixed locator strings (e.g., "p123") not working when editing a citation
+  * Improved PDF retrieval for publishers that use cookies for IP-based authentication (e.g., Nature)
+  * [Windows] Fixed missing bottom border of toolbar (since 5.0.78)
+  * [Windows] Fixed %%zotero://open-pdf%% links when no handler is set in registry
+  * Fixed drop-downs in timeline (since 5.0.78)
+  * Fixed cases of "Too many sync requests" sync error
+  * Sped up "Title, Creator, Year" search performance
+  * Fixed some drag and drop issues in the citation dialog
+  * Fixed crash when loading a saved search with certain invalid search conditions
+  * Added "English (Canada)" to Language menu with support for ISO dates (YYYY-MM-DD)
+  * Fixed crash loading empty My Publications in Norwegian Bokmål locale
+===== Changes in 5.0.82 (January 21, 2020) =====
+  * Page number entry improvements in citation dialog
+    * It's now possible to type page numbers with or without "p" before or after making a selection.
+    * For the first citation, you can search by number alone. After making a selection, if you want to search for an additional citation by number, press the spacebar first, which will lock the previously entered selection and prevent a number alone from turning into a page number. Clicking on a bubble and entering a page number in the popup also locks the citation.
+    * If you add an additional citation in the same dialog and it's sorted earlier in the list, typing a page number will now properly apply to that citation rather than to the right-most citation.
+    * You can move between citations with the left/right arrow keys and use "p123" (the "p" is required in this case) to add or overwrite the locator for the citation to the left of the cursor.
+  * Fixed cursor positioning around citation bubbles (since 5.0.78)
+  * Added Norwegian Bokmål locale
+===== Changes in 5.0.81 (January 7, 2020) =====
+  * Fixed display of editors in Creator column in new databases (since 5.0.78)
+  * Fixed autocomplete in Advanced Search window (since 5.0.78)
+  * Fixed repeating of autocompleted tags (since 5.0.78)
+  * Increased autocomplete results to 50 entries (up from 25 in 5.0.80)
+  * Citation dialog fixes
+    * Added ability to search by number
+    * Fixed UI issues with bubbles (since 5.0.78)
+    * Fixed page number entry in main text field after making selection (since 5.0.78)
+    * Allow "p123" in addition to ":123" and "p.123" when specifying page number
+  * Adjusted URL launching behavior
+    * Removed URL scheme whitelist for linked-URL attachments
+    * Some URLs were loading via the internal viewer rather than being blocked or launched externally
+    * Only show cursor feedback on URL label if URL can be opened
+  * Don't send cookies with WebDAV requests to avoid 503 error from Nextcloud servers (since 5.0.78)
+  * Restored 'yesterday'/'today'/'tomorrow' parsing for Accessed field and dates in search conditions (since 5.0.78)
+  * Fixed CSL 0.8 style import (since 5.0.78)
+  * Fixed parsing of pre-1000 years
+    * If a leading zero (e.g., '068'), parse as actual year instead of 19xx/20xx
+  * Fixed text links in About pane and preferences (since 5.0.78)
+  * Fixed hiding of password in WebDAV error messages and debug output (since 5.0.78)
+  * Fixed invalid RTF wrapper output when generating a bibliography using the BibTeX CSL style
