Downloading attached files from a group library
Hi there,
I recently created a group library within Zotero to be able to exchange references and pdfs of the references within our research group. Through the Firefox extension, one can only access the pdfs which we uploaded. If another member of the group adds a reference and an attached file, I seem to be unable to access the linked file, even if it is present in the group library. The settings for the group library are:
- private ownership
- any group member can see library items
- any group member can edit entries
- any group member can work with stored files.
Moreover, through the web interface (i.e. the zotero web page, logged in), I can get the info on the attached file, and am unable to download it.
Is this a bug ? If so, is there a work around ? I would really need to get access through the Firefox pluggin to the attached files from the other group members.
Thanks for the help.
