"Save to Zotero" filenames changed to "0.pdf," "0.xls," ...
In Firefox, when I "Save to Zotero" the filenames are changed in Zotero to "0.[file_extension]" like "0.xls." Is there a way to retain the original file name?
Thank you!
Thank you!
I right click on a .PDF file > Zotero > Save Link as Zotero Item
All .PDF files save as "view.pdf"
Not a problem with .PPT files.
When you save a regular item with metadata via the Save to Zotero button, Zotero will rename the PDF based on the parent metadata. You can also attach a PDF to an item with metadata, right-click the PDF, and choose "Rename File from Parent Metadata".
Here is the link to the PDF file on the page: https://ccle.ucla.edu/mod/resource/view.php?id=1234
When instead I left-click on the link to open the PDF in Firefox, then URL in the address bar becomes: https://ccle.ucla.edu/pluginfile.php/1234/mod_resource/content/0/[author's name].pdf . And Zotero names the file "[author's name].pdf"
I am very thankful for the "rename with parent metadata" and "retrieve metadata" upon download features. Can really save time. Thank you.
