I realize Zotero can now display filenames in place of titles in the main library view. I personally prefer the way Zotfile did it for years (explicitly making the two the same), which Zotmoov continues to do by default. But linked files users can e…
-
@jdien regarding linked file renaming, if you use the Zotmoov plugin, its right-click "Move Selected to Directory" actually does *two* things: 1. if linked file renaming is turned ON in Zotero settings, it renames *both* the title and the filename t…

@abdelali.elhachimialaoui there may be a current issue (#80) that covers a problem like yours. In any case you can add your own report there in github. https://github.com/syt2/zotero-scipdf/issues While I don't use that scipdf plugin often I do fi…

Indeed 'nearly' the same separation as different libraries can be achieved with top-level collections. For example, at its simplest ... Professional and Private. When working under one top-level collection hierarchy, the other hierarchy can be colla…

@Amit3821 firstly, Zotero itself cannot sync linked PDFs to the Zotero mobile apps. That is a fundamental limitation of linked files. https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files#linked_files So there are only 'workarounds' for mobile access to l…

@AymanNad, reading the github issue it seems to be (or have been ?) associated only with a narrow set of circumstances. There has been a major plugin update (v5) since the last report, but it is not clear if it addresses those circumstances (the iss…

The Reference Extractor web app is another way to do this. Load your Word (.docx) or LibreOffice (.odt) file with 'live' citations, then click Select in Zotero and drag the selected items to a collection. You can also save to one of various file typ…

If you use the Zotmoov plugin to handle linked files, it will set the displayed title to match the file name by default when adding new linked files (the same behaviour used by the now-defunct Zotfile, that many linked file users were accustomed to …

Finding "orphaned" attachments is a difficult problem, because by definition Zotero has no record of them. And by the way, AFAIK there is no known Zotero bug that would cause them to occur. More often they seem to arise when people try to do odd thi…

Half of that works - you can of course unlink citations and send a flattened copy of the document. But getting citations from the returned document would require Anystyle to parse for citations, which would need importing and re-matching to your Zot…

Regarding your original question about seeing attachment size from with Zotero, the Attachment Scanner plugin allows you to add a column for individual attachment size. https://github.com/SciImage/zotero-attachment-scanner Your total online file st…

I've seen this from time to time too. I thought at one stage it might be associated with particular types of pasted image files, but don't think that is the case now. For me it seems to be mostly (always ?) associated with pasting an image into a n…

Assuming this is the plugin you mean, you can update directly from github. Apparently the plugin's auto-updating was broken at one stage ... which might have left you with a version that is no longer compatible with a recent Zotero update you did ? …

With 1000 PDFs, it would be best to first add a small chunk (say 10), to see what they look like in Zotero. Using the File\Add Attachment\Add Link to File method, they will come in as standalone "linked" PDFs. Most "items" in Zotero instead usually…

There is now a plugin to establish a watch folder. https://github.com/josesiqueira/zotero-watch-folder

@jandavid if by not keeping it 'up to date' you mean the automatic name change that should occur when you change any relevant metadata, there is a preference which determines if that happens ... extensions.zotero.autoRenameFiles.onMetadataChange It…

The Attachment Scanner plugin recently added the ability to tag items with #stored or #linked attachments (or your own chosen custom tags). See #7 here ... https://github.com/SciImage/zotero-attachment-scanner#technical-notes It can also add column…

There was a plugin for report customization, but it has not been updated for 4 years (so it will not work with the current Zotero version). Although there are signs of more recent development. And other interest in an updated version under Issues at…

Do also consider that users of unsupported word processors can always use Zotero's RTF Scan, that is plain-text curly-bracket citations - like {Smith 2010}. It's how I used Endnote for years (which admittedly supports that approach a little better t…

Using export is a decent workaround. I hadn't thought of that. I assume it loses annotation tags and annotation comments though (?). Regarding my second suggestion, the need for "composite" or "grouped" items (that also retain their individual iden…

You can check the total size of files under Zotero\storage in your OS for an estimate of how much online storage space you would need. Regarding cost, there are other options such as 'linked' PDFs that may work for you, for syncing across computers…
-
The real pain point here is the final one you mention - where one has annotated in a full book PDF and then realized one needs to separate out one or more chapters so that they can be cited individually. Physically separating out the chapters is not…

It's been Zotero version 9 compatible since v3.0.3 in March. More recently extended to version 10. Plugin is now at v3.2.0. https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-better-notes/releases

Further to my earlier suggestion that Zotero consider adding some core AI capabilities, another long-standing but less well known reference manager is currently trialling significant integrated core AI interaction tools in public beta. AI capabilit…

The Attachment Scanner plugin can help you find (tag) items with missing attachments. https://github.com/SciImage/zotero-attachment-scanner

Tabs groups are also available in Zotero Tab Enhance. https://github.com/Rphone/zotero-tab-enhance

Thanks for that clear position. It would appear that there are plugins that are flouting these rules ... https://s3.amazonaws.com/zotero.org/images/forums/u5906489/lplw8vyqsw68qszgopj3.png

@dougwyu maybe the script's developer @RamonMi can advise.

There are other ways to easily add a PDF from a designated folder, for 'stored' files (a zotero-actions-tags script) or 'linked' files (Zotmoov) ... https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/513365/#Comment_513365 https://github.com/wileyyugioh/z…

According to the Chinese repository that has most Zotero plugins listed, there are currently 29 AI-related plugins. A few are limited to narrow, specific tasks. But the majority are broad AI tools. That's impossible for most users to sensibly naviga…
