detaching all pdfs from parent items at once
hi,
zotero was my library, instead of separate folders on my computer, i put all of my pdfs in zotero and organised there. now i changed my mind. i want all of my pdfs on a file unorganised and don't want to download pdfs anymore via chrome extension.
however, i want to keep my collections and parent items in zotero so that i can work easily with word for citation.
is there a way to detach all pdfs at once? on standalone or online? and is it possible to sync only parent items without downloading pdfs?
thank you in advance for your help.

bwiernikLook at the Zotfile plugin. It can automatically move all of your pdfs to one folder, while also keeping links to the PDFs associated with the Zotero items.

zepsaslanthank you bwiernik. i assume it wouldn't work retrospectively but rather for new citations, right?
