pull in the correct color category name from zotero into my notes.
Things I have tried
I have used the annotation attribute “colorCategory” to filter annotations by the highlight color I used in Zotero. This works perfectly EXCEPT for all purple highlights come through as “Blue” in the colorCategory. The hex codes are correct, so I can fix this by using color instead of colorCategory. But in another area I was directly using colorCategory and I can’t find a fix. Is this something on the Zotero side? Someone had the same problem here: but that thread was closed with no answer. I’ve double checked that my highlights are purple in zotero and used data explorer to verify that the purple hex code is correct, but the colorCategory is “Blue” on the obsidian side.
The issue seems to be on Zotero’s side where purple highlights are incorrectly categorized as “Blue” in the colorCategory attribute. As a workaround, use the hex code for filtering instead of colorCategory. Verify your highlights are purple in Zotero and check the hex code using data explorer to ensure accuracy in Obsidian.
thank you! can confirm an error with miscategorizing the color on the zotero side. I’m using the hex codes as a work around and will post something to zotero. would love to be able to use the text of the colorCategory, a bit more simple, but it works for now
