잘 사용하고 있었는데 이번 업데이트부터 web client에 저장할 때 pdf 파일이 깨져버리는 것 같네요.

Have not managed to import a single thing. What is this good for? This came highly recommended, but it does not work at all, seems like an update issue!

It used to be a great tool, but since the last update it has to act up. I was able to get the PDFs from the journal's url previous to the update. Now, everytime I try to add the paper with the PDF, the tool doesnt read any metadata including the title of the paper and even if I click import I get an error 'unable to import'. The main reason I started using Mendeley was because of this feature where I didnt have to download the PDFs on to my computer and I could access them anywhere. I really wish you guys would fix the problem.

Can't use the extension. When I try to sign using using Chromium in Debian 9 it it displays "Sigining In" and then ask for credentials again, without error. Tried disabling developer mode (I write a few extensions myself) and clearing cookies. Same result. I know it isn't Chrome, but it's the same engine. Should work. The authentication ¿module? seems broken in this extension.

This used to work really well and now it doesn't - I have reported the problem on twitter with a screenshot.

It isn't scraping the information for the citation or the PDF... If it worked it would be a very helpful tool!

It was OK, but after running windows update yesterday, it seems not working now. =(

Won't allow sign-in on any site other than Mendeley. Just keeps recycling back to the sign-in screen. Chrome, working on Mac OS.

Works very well for me in Chrome on both my home and university networks. Quick and convenient way to import papers and citation data into a personal research library.
