Upgrade StorageAdding custom field with path of external pdf file
I store all my pdf in a folder synched on a cloud service, and I use zotfile to give the pdf the same name as the citekey (using Better Bib Text). Externally stored files however cannot be opened from the IOs app.
As a workaround to be able to reach these pdfs from the app, I would like to add a custom field that looks like this: www.dropbox..... + citekey + ".pdf". Is it possible to do this?

emilianoeheynsI believe zotfile can use the BBT citekey in renames.

StefanopagliariYes, I managed to set up Zotfile so that the name of the file matches the citekey. I was wondering if it is possible to create a field in that matches the cloud path where that file is accessible by adding the citekey to a fixed string (www.dropbox..... + citekey + ".pdf")

emilianoeheynsThat I don't know.

emilianoeheynsActually, https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-prosec-linker/ might approximate what you want to do. Not a field, but does give you a clickable url.

StefanopagliariThank you. I will take a look!
