Zotero Storage

Nancy Fazal
Is there any possiblity of Organizing the Zotero Storage the Way I Organize my Zotero Library into Collections and Sub Collections? As my Collections and their Corresponding Sub Collections are merged into a single folder i.ee Zotero Storage.

    no. For storage specifically, you should never touch that folder.
    But even if you use, e.g., ZotFile to save attachments outside of the storage folder, items can be in multiple collections and there wouldn't be a good way to deal with one file being in multiple locations.

    thnx for ur response but I am using Zotero standalone, thus zotfile not working. Besides that I also want to export Zotero library in excel, how it can be done??
  • adamsmith
    You can use ZotFile (download the .xpi and in stall it from Tools-->add-ons -->the tools icon --> Install from File )

    The best way to export the Excel is

    though it's somewhat involved technically. There are a _lot_ of different fields in Zotero that vary by item type, so there's no straightforward way to export into a straight table.
