Zotfile extension disable_renaming not working

durazzi

I'm trying to temporarily disable zotfile renaming without success. (I just want to do this while moving attachments under the books that Zotero imported with unique chapter names.) I've tried the settings I could find in the forums and zotfile--what am I missing?

Mac OS Monterey
Zotero 6.0.30
Zotfile (just downloaded today)
(Restarted Zotero a few times in the process.)

Screenshots in case they're helpful.
1. Book with chapters attached

2. Zotero settings -> config -> extensions.zotfile.disable_renaming set to true

3. Zotfile preferences -> renaming rules [I've done with both "use Zotero to rename" checked and unchecked]

Zotfile preferences -> advanced settings -> rename never

Results = file renamed (in Zotero and in file folder)

Thanks for any help.

Why not just disable Zotfile?

Because I need the other functions of Zotfile, just not the file renaming.

So you want Zotfile to move files without renaming? I don't think that's possible

Okay, I played around with this some more and spent a lot of time trying to locate the name of the field that was being changed. Once I learned the field in question is called _attachment title_, I was able to search and find other forum posts about this issue. Looks like it will be updated in Zother 7.
