Upgrade StorageZotFile: Upon deleting a PDF from Zotero, it is not deleted from the custom folder location
Hi
As ZotFile allows a user to a custom location for storing pdfs instead of zotero's default location. It works fine when I add a new item to zotero, as new file is saved in the custom location with proper naming rules. However, when I remove the file from zotero completely, it is not deleted from the custom folder. I was expecting it to be deleted from the custom folder as well. Any ideas why?
Regards,
Ehsan

dstillmanThat's not really about ZotFile. ZotFile can automate the process of linked file attachments, but they're just regular linked files. Zotero doesn't delete linked files when the attachment items are deleted.
