Google Scholar Auto Save Script

This project contains a JavaScript script designed to automate the process of saving articles from Google Scholar to specific reading lists. The script automatically clicks on the "Save" button for each article, selects a specified reading list, and confirms the save action by clicking the "Done" button.

How It Works

The script loops through all articles displayed on the page, clicks the "Save" button, selects the desired reading list, and then clicks "Done" to confirm. The reading list is selected dynamically based on the data-id of the list.

Available Reading Lists and IDs

Here are the IDs of the available reading lists:

• Reading list: data-id="6"
• Second Reading List: data-id="1024"
• Third Reading List: data-id="1025"
• Fourth Reading List: data-id="1026"

How to Use

1. Open Google Scholar and search for articles.

2. Open Developer Tools in Chrome (F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I).

3. Paste the script from the main.js file into the console.

4. Call the function saveArticles('list-id') where list-id is the ID of the reading list you'd like to use.

   Example:

   saveArticles('1024'); // This will save to the Second Reading list
