Zotfile Renaming Rules inconsistent across devices
Hello everyone,
I am pretty new to Zotero and a little stumped.
I am using the Zotfile (and BetterBibTex) plugin and trying to synchronize everything over two devices. Access to my files via Linked Attachment Base Directory works just fine and all settings seem to be the same on both devices.
However, when using the Renaming Rules setting in Zotfile, I put in {%b} on both devices, but get different results, e.g. "andricBrainFunctionOverlaps2013" vs "andric2013" (aiming for the second, shorter one). I tried restarting the app, reinstalling Zotfile, briefly changing the renaming format ... When I add new files from my laptop or automatically rename existing ones from my laptop, I get the short version, when I do that from my PC, I get the long version.
Any tips or solutions would help a lot, thank you!

adamsmithDo you have the citekey pinned using BBT? This just looks like two different citekeys
-
leinwebkThe citation key formula is set to "auth.lower+key" in both BBT settings. Tried it with and without spaces.
-
adamsmithis that what the citation key shows as, though? That's why I asked about pinning it.

leinwebkThank you so much! I didn't have it pinned initially, but pinning and unpinning everything worked, so problem solved!
