Notify for annotations
Just as notifications are set for other updates across Mendeley, there should be notifications sent when a private group member adds annotations to a document in the group. This would be useful when working collaboratively on research.

Allow groups to include entries from rss feeds
Groups would be much more useful if they could merge in news from feeds on other sites (i.e., from any rss feed).

Selecting parts of article with a rectangle
Could You implement a selecting tool like it is in Preview on Mac or in Acrobat, that would allow the user to select a rectangle area (maybe not only rectangle) and to copy it into the clipboard.
I often want to copy a chart or table from an article and have to open the file externally to be able to do it.1 vote -
results for multiple searches
Now the result from a single search can be displayed. If I want to do another search, the previous result will be replaced by the new result. Is it possible to display each result into a separate tab. So that I can also keep the previous result, while doing a new document search.

Make automatic tags "no tag" or add to filter articles with no tags
I manage many articles, when i put new i do not have time to read them at the moment and put it in some category (tag). Later I can not reach that articles which ones have no tags if i open them before. Some articles i read five times before putting into special category. So it takes a lot time to check articles which ones do not have any tag at the moment.

Language specific quotation marks
At the moment, Mendeley will put " into formatted bibliography entries which is not correct for most languages (actually, it's not even correct for English). This must probably be part of a bigger localization effort, but we need the possibility to switch quotation marks according the used language.

Italics [i][/i] in title should not be passed to filenames
I know italics in metadata is still not fully supported, but when using "... [i]Genus[/i] ..." in titles the filename is affected.
Instead of showing "... Genus ..." only, automatic file renaming strip brackets, but not the "i"s resulting in "... iGenusi ..." in the file name.

read/undread mark proper functionality
I have imported my pdfs - and all are marked as read by default for some reason and cannot undo it for all at once - this feature is useless then because I don´t want to go and unmark it in all 185 papers by hand.
Good luck to you and thanks for Mendelay!1 vote -
develop a tool to restore the fields in an exported text document
after some rounds of collaborations with co-authors I always find that my field-free, submitted papers always look very different from my last version with Mendeley fields. While I can resolve this with some effort I wonder whether Mendeley's plugins couldn't have a feature to rebuild fields & bibliography (at least with the info from my desktop Mendeley)?

Allow searching of your notes while citing.
I was using papers and coded my references R001 etc. in the notes.
It would be great if I could type the same code into the word search bar and it would bring up the reference again

let the toolbar overlap with the text in full-screen mode instead of pushing the text downward
let the toolbar overlap with the text in full-screen mode instead of pushing the text downward, which could make friendly interaction.

Allow simultaneous addition of documents to different folders and groups in Mendeley web app
Whenever I add a document from web resources, I find it very annoying, that I have to add this document to different folders one folder after the other. Why isn't is possible to give the user a list of checkboxes to which folders the document has to be added?

Make only year mandatory for Award entries (not month as well)
As with the CV, only make the year required for the date, not even the month. If you were really wise, you might even think about not having the year be required, either. Flexibility> Rigidity
