Sync doesn't remove remotely deleted collections and articles

[mergen3107]

Hi @stelzch
Here is another bug.

1. I created test collections with names 1, 2, 3. Synced with Zotero - all good.
2. Then deleted them on Zotero remotely via PC app.
3. Synced again - deleted collections are still there.

So, sync can track existing colections', for example I had no issue when renaming them - no duplicates were created. However, it doesn't delete locally what was deleted remotely.

Thanks!

Zotero just keeps adding items to after syncing, it doesn't check/track whether collections or articles have been deleted on the server.

Deletion should work now, looking forward to bug reports.

For now the plugin does not delete attached files, as it could cause data loss: imagine a user making annotations into a pdf that then gets deleted during sync without warning.
We might want to add an option to prune attachments that are no longer in the database from storage.

Good point! Let me try it out.

Thank you very much for maintaining the plugin!
