i got it! it works! many thanks for your patience and time! I have moved all the pdfs in the natural storage folder where zotero is installed and activated webdav sync. in my nextcloud sync app I have deselected the zotero folder where webdav syncs…

ok that's what I thought! thanks for being so patient with me! ok so. how should I organize the data then? On my laptop I have zotero installed. I have done the Convert Linked Files to Stored Files. The storage folder in the Zotero install folder …
-
ok so in order to fix all this I have to move the entire zotero folder (with the storage this time not being a symlink!) inside nextcloud. Would that be a solution?
-
ok i think you are right! I have something mixed up. I was using zotmoov indeed and now I have reverted to linked files and disabled zotmov. but here's the situation and I hope you can help me clarify it: I have a folder Zotero in /home/user/Zoter…

ok I have sent a debug log ID: D1625576081. (sent several but forgot to save the numbers...) Regarding the cloud pdf reader. That means that the file is not being pulled from the webdav server then. What is the intended functionality? For the file…

sorry, second pic is with that info bar that cannot be hidden when I eventually found an entry I could open (but only the first two pages)

Thank you for the detailed clarification. I will attempt to move the files over the weekend. A few clarifications: 1) I am not using the zotero cloud just as you inferred. I cannot justify that for myself. 2) I know that officially linking the st…

thank you for your answer. I have installed zotmoov but to be honest I don't see the benefit for it now. what I would like to achieve is to have all my pdfs organized by zotero in a single location like storage. Actually I have symlinked storage to…

thank you! I will try this. About time for the android app, damn!

You guys were right! The problem was on my side! All good now. As I said it will take some getting used to the new system. I am now at work and I was trying to install zotero 5 on linux and all I get is an archive which I unpack and I can run zoter…

sorry I am an idiot! I click on the save to zotero and I get the window to save the file in zotero. The annoyance is that it obtains the metadata and creates an entry for the file downloaded, but it also creates a blank entry with no title, only som…

In chrome, I click on the save to zotero and I only get to save a snapshot. If I try to save the file localy I don't get the save to zotero option like I used to do in Firefox. How do you drag an URL to zotero?

OK, after reading about the dangers of dropbox syncing, I have switched to syncing the database with the zotero server. All i can say is that it is disappointingly slow! A modification on one device takes ages to translate on the other. I have …
-
precisely! dropbox has an interesting way of resolving such conflicts by renaming the conflicting file. I have checked just now my zotero base directory and it seems there were some conflicting sqlite files last year but i never noticed problems. th…
-
@noksagt I was under the impression that the sync function will sync everything on the zotero storage, database AND pdfs. And I have too many pdfs. Also I have set zotero to copy the attached pdfs where the database is (in the dropbox folder) to kee…
-
Wow! awesome answer! I can say that I am excited to see the future improvements. However I am confused about the database corruption issue in Dropbox. I have my database there for more than 2 years I think, and nothing happened. This is the onl…
-
OK this is an option (thank you btw! I will use it from now on!) but in my mind this could be expanded to more than email. For example: keep the database in the dropbox/google drive folder, then when someone asks for an article (or more than on…

Ok I have discovered ZotFile which works great to rename files and does what I want. Now if it was possible to correct the missing info I would be a really happy researcher :)
-
Hi, Thanks for the quick response! My EndNote library is very old and very big. I have noticed that some information missing such as the page numbers. Anyway I was very excited about how Zotero imported all my references and trying to get used …

what is the status of this request? I would really love to have this feature! I am in the process to switch from EndNote to Zotero since I am fed up with the high price and no real updates and useful features. In the process of switching from e…
