Hi, I would like to add than: * edition name of the references to the PDF file * full creator name to the PDF file (now we can just add creator's surname)
Zotero by default will rename PDFs using the format: Author (surname) - Year - Title
You can create detailed customized formats for renaming PDFs with the Zotfile plugin (http://zotfile.com). This plugin is widely used by Zotero users and is well-supported.
Hi, I added this value: { "1": "edition"} to zotfile.wildcards.user Then I wrote this value: {%t{100}} {%1.}{-%I}{%F-} to extensions.zotero.attachmentRenameFormatString Then I clicked "Rnema File from parent metadata But I get this name: Çözümlü Teknik Termodinamik Problemler {%1.}{-%I}{%F-}.pdf
You need to use Zotfile's renaming function by choosing Manage Attachment -> Rename Attachments in the context menu.
With the format you describe, I get Imperfect competition in the labor market100 2.-MAAlanM-.pdf
with the title "Imperfect competition in the labor market", author "Alan, Manning", and edition "2".
(I don't think you want the {100} there. You should drop that from your string. I'm also not sure you want that exact punctuation or both the author's intials and sur name with initials there. Can you give a real example of the format you want?)
Hi, I would like to do: "Title of Publication" "(Edition)" - "Creator First Name and Surname" Example: Heat Analysis and Thermodynamic Effects (1 ed)-Amimul Ahsan.pdf I put there {100} for limit of maximum character of title. Because if it is too long, there can be some error because of it. Thanks
Zotfile is widely used and generally works very well for people. For us to help you further, we will need you to be much more detailed describing exactly what is going wrong, exactly what behaviors and steps you are taking, and what the desired outcome is. It is hard to help with only statements like "it did not work as well".
Hi, I would like to that in ZotFile: "Title of Publication" "(Edition)" - "Creator First Name and Surname" Example: Heat Analysis and Thermodynamic Effects (1 ed)-Amimul Ahsan.pdf How can I do that?
Add this to zotfile.wildcards.user: { "1": "edition"}
Then, open the Zotfile preferences window (in the Gear menu in Zotero) and enter this under the renaming rules (you don't do this in the hidden preferences): {%t}{ (%1 ed)}{ - %F}
In the settings below the text box, be sure to check to the option to truncate after punctuation and set the maximum title length. You can also set the number of authors you want displayed.
This will format the filename like this: Heat Analysis and Thermodynamic Effects (1 ed) - AhsanA.pdf
The code for creator names is much more complex than for other fields, and printing the full author name requires an addition to the Zotfile code itself, not just a user-defined wildcard. Until now, no one has ever requested full author names be available. I can add the code, but Zotfile is in the middle of major changes to be compatible with the upcoming Zotero 5.0, so I will wait until that update is complete.

Thank you
In zotfile there is no edition display..
Search for:
zotfile.wildcards.user
Enter this value:
{ "1": "edition"}
You will then be able to get edition using this wildcard
