Thank you. I think that's a very good policy. People like me, who use Zotero to catalogue files rather than store them, will want to have independent control over the way their files are organized on disk.
-
Ah, thanks. I hadn't noticed that -- perhaps because all my files have it. Am I right in thinking that when using Zotero I can't accidently delete files stored outside the Zotero data directory?
-
Thank you for your reply, which is very helpful. I like to use ZotFile because it allows more flexible renaming and will rename and move my pdfs with one click. But I see now that I should be linking in step 1. That is, I should be using Ctrl+Shift …

Thanks xujchen! I'm using Windows 10, but I'll see if a variant of that works. I can't bear the default font!
-
Sorry to revive an old thread, but I'd really like to change the user interface font (for the main window, not the notes), and I wondered if anyone could help me implement the last option, suggested by gxCai, please. I've got the dark theme working,…

Hi spartanroc. Could you help me please? I'd need function (4) only -- the ability to export attachments with real path links. What would I need to do to get this? Is it just a matter of adding a couple of lines of code somewhere? If you could give …

Re: DZI's request for a statement from the developers on whether relative paths will be implemented. I requested such a statement back in October, and wrote to Dan personally about it, but have not received a reply. For me, this is a make-or-b…

Is there any news of whether this is going to happen, and if so, when? (I started a new thread to ask this question, but was re-directed back here. Apologies if that annoyed anyone.) I need to decide very soon whether or not to stick with Zotero (I'…
-
Dan: Thanks for your reply. Yes, directory-relative storage looks like a *very* desirable feature. Would I still use linked files if zotero had a different naming structure? It depends what the new structure was. I'd like to have my files…

adamsmith: Thanks for your comments. On (2) I can see that the tracking option might be difficult to implement. But (naively perhaps -- I'm not a programmer) the alternative seems fairly easy. Couldn't it be done simply with a bulk find-and-replace …
-
Thanks Dan! Will that be in the next update?
-
trala-la and adamsmith: Thanks for your replies. I didn't know about the config options, so thanks for that. I guess it's just the link-breaking that is holding me back now. I notice that it's been reported before by trevory -- see http://forums.zot…

adamsmith -- Thanks for your suggestion. I've tried the 'rename from metadata' function, but there are some drawbacks for me: (1) I prefer zotfile's renaming rules (e.g. use of underscores rather than dashes), (2) the rename rules are not configurab…
-
While I'm at it, may I add a second request please, relating to the rename function? I like zotfile's rename function and prefer its rules to those of the new zotero functions. However, there is one niggle, concerning editors' names. At …

Joscha First, once again, I'd like to thank you for writing and supporting zotfile, which, for me, turns a very useful application into a killer one. May I make a small request, please? At present, if one runs zotfile on an entry to which…
-
Thanks noksagt. It's easy to fix the proper nouns by hand. But it would help if the style handled the rest (i.e. removed all caps except on first word and after colons). With Endnote I could enter titles in any form, and the program would would adju…
-
I'm having a problem with this too. What I really want is to modify the APA style so that it follows APA guidelines for book titles (caps only on first word, first word after colon, and proper nouns). Can anyone tell me how to do this, please? I tri…
-
Thanks for responding to my request Joscha. This is really is an excellent addition to Zotero.
-
I love this plugin, and would like to thank Joscha for creating it. Just one tiny request, please: In the renaming process, underscores are not inserted before, between, and after the words "et al". This is slightly inelegant, since underscore…
