Hey Dan, apologies for any unintended offence. It is natural to compare Zotero-specific storage with services that offer similar, i.e. WebDAV, and they are often much cheaper. I consider Dropbox, Box, etc to be generic storage services that can be u…
-
Thanks for the clarification. From a user's perspective I see a 'link' and 'Go to Page' functionality as, effectively, the same: click on something and it takes you somewhere else. But I can see that the technical implementation may well be very di…

Hi Dan This isn't ZotFile - that is disabled. However, an update on my earlier message is that the "Go to page" link on the citation in the Annotation Note does now take me to the page on which the highlight appears. So no bug - apologies. But wh…
-
In fact, I notice that even within Zotero, when I click on the citation at the end of a highlight in the "Annotations" note, the link does not open the PDF, let alone take me to the appropriate page. All it does is take the focus to the item record…
-
Thanks @martynas_b - done.
-
Thanks for responding @martynas_b. What I don't understand is with the exact same PDF file I have Zotero PDF Reader giving me: "plagueofbedbugsandfamilyillness.Attheotherendofthecountry,acountessispaintingbotanical" and PDF-XChange Editor giving me:…
-
Interesting that there are no responses to this, @eporte . I'd love an official Android app as well. Do we assume the answer is 'no'?
-
Are there differences in the API for the Zotero beta over the release version?
-
@dstillman "an alternative would be to use Zotero syncing (with a Zotero storage subscription), set it to download files only as needed, and then remove the PDFs from your local drive." Is this a safe option with a WebDAV file storage solution? Tha…

Update on Zotero-roam-export: I'm pleased to say that @laurence80386 continues to fix bugs and actively enhance the add-on and it is proving to be a very useful piece of my academic workflow.
-
Thanks Dan - it is now working again. No obvious cause, or fix, so it will have to go down as 'just one of those things'!
-
Ah, understood! ;-) I'm going to sound like everyone else who tries to describe Roam (https://roamresearch.com): I'll either sound like a member of the "roamcult" - which I definitely am not - or someone who blindly follows a hunch that some new so…

Hi @B'ZEOS Unfortunately I can't recall now. I suspect that it it was either an error my end or a temporary PCloud glitch or there would have been more comments here.
-
@michael29 I'm probably quite rare in using both main storage (PCloud+webdav) and duplicate linked attachments (in OneDrive) - belt and braces! It's an edge case, and understand that implementation is not high priority. It is great to have Zoo (as…
-
Thanks @michael29 I can confirm that it works for me with Xodo, although I find Xodo's interface for closing the app and returning to Zoo a bit obscure! Is there documentation on the app and recommended PDF editors? Also, I notice a proposed enh…
-
Hi Michael - just discovered Zoo for Zotero and it is an impressive app for such a short gestation time! Can I clarify what you mean above by "two-way webdav attachment syncing", and the phrase in the PlayStore description: "annotation syncing for …
-
I thought that would be the case, which means it would be even more helpful if Zotero could reduce the charge for > 6GB. Given the plethora of cloud storage providers I am surprised that Zotero isn't able to bring the price down. It looks like …
-
Thanks for the fast response @tnajdek ! Will it ever be possible to retrieve Webdav attachments via the web-library interface? I'd love the ease and simplicity of using Zotero storage but I'm just over the 6GB and $120/yr is much more than Webdav c…
-
Hi @tnajdek My attachments are not synced to Zotero storage, but to pCloud (Webdav) and OneDrive, so I am used to them not being available via the web interface. Yes, when using the new web-library beta on desktop I see the attachments in the rig…
-
I've just had a look a the new web library beta and really like the direction it is going. It looks good in Firefox on both desktop and mobile. One small point - in the current Web Library, I can see that an item has attachments (although I cannot …
-
Hi @diyoyo I wonder if you have checked for any limitations that my library might have exceeded? My libary has 1500 items, most of which have attachments in pCloud & OneDrive. What size library have you tested against? Thanks, Richard
-
Hi @diyoyo I notice that you have released a couple of updates to ZotEZ2 - fixing a bug with logging into WebDav and another about attachments. This continued development really is good to see. However, I am unsure why the issues I am still havi…
-
Hi @diyoyo - many thanks for the fast and comprehensive reply. I have followed-up via email to troubleshoot to attachment issue. Richard
-
Hi I have been using ZotDroid and it works well for me but I am always interested in new developments so I thought I'd try ZotEZ2 for comparison - it looks like it has a lot of nice features. I've jotted my initial observations and questions here …
-
Many thanks @dstillman . The Reset went okay so I'll assume all is okay.
-
Hi @OniDaito It is good to see further development of ZotDroid Ben - the future looks very promising! But now for the embarrassing bit... After installing your latest update the zip problem was still there so I investigated further by running Zot…
-
Hi @henge - thanks for the info. Do you mean that you use pCloud, but have not had the same experience as me? Or do you use other personal webdav? @OniDaito - I have now tried to download a few attachments and the zip file downloaded is always 79.5…
-
Many thanks @OniDaito . It will be interesting to see if anyone else is having this problem. It could be pCloud but it performs very well in every other respect so I doubt it. (I hope not as I bought a lifetime subscription...!) Best regards, Ric…
-
Hi @OniDaito Yes, I'm using pCloud. There seems to be a problem with the downloading function. I checked the zip file downloaded via ZotDroid - it is 80KB and can not be unzipped on Android or when copied over to a Windows device. The zip file …
