As indicated in the above-linked thread, the Reference plugin can extract both a paper's cited references and also those which have since cited that paper (the latter if that information has been provided by journal publishers to online databases - …

I am just a user whose institution uses OpenAthens for authentication on and off campus. I have nothing under "Configured Proxies" proxy settings in the Zotero Connector preferences. I do have Enable Proxy Redirection ticked (maybe necessary, maybe …

The Zotero Web Connector works fine with journal websites accessed via OpenAthens user authentication.

To clarify, you say that the path to the linked files is exactly the same on *both* computers, ie C:\Users\MyName\Google Drive\Zotero Attachments. If that is the case, then no Linked Attachment Base Directory (LABD) would *normally* be necessary (th…
-
The Linked Attachment Base Directory (LABD) you mentioned only affects where Zotero *looks* for linked PDFs when you try to open them. It has no effect on where they get stored. That's why it did not do what you expected. See "this setting does not …

@drtyuj in that case it may just be that an old version of the Reference plugin still works in Zotero 7, if you're seeing the old Settings dialog in v7.* v0.5.9 (June 2023) was the first version to be compatible with Zotero v7. AFAIK the Settings h…
-
Are you running Zotero v6 ? Because that looks like the Settings dialog for the old, v6-compatible version of the Reference plugin. The Settings dialog under Zotero v7 for the latest version of the plugin (1.4.4) looks like this, even on English lan…

The Reference plugin can the extract reference list from a PDF in your Zotero library. And can take you to the DOI/URL in your browser for any one that you do not already have. There of course you can choose to add/download it with the Zotero web co…

Are you using Onedrive to store your PDF attachment files as "linked" files rather than "stored" files (under Zotero\storage), which are synced to Zotero servers ? https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files#stored_files_and_linked_files In that…

You can use the Zotmoov or Attanger plugins in v7, in place of Zotfile.
-
Indeed, the blog post doesn't clearly show that you need to turn OFF Zotero *file* syncing (there are only isolated cases where you might have a mixture of "stored" files - that would use Zotero syncing - and also linked files that you sync yourself…

One of your links ( https://peterfalkingham.com/2025/04/15/setting-up-zotero-with-onedrive-dropbox-google-drive-etc/ ) is generally correct but confuses the role of the Linked Attachment Base Directory (LABD). Despite what is implied there, a LABD s…

There is a forked version of Citation Counts Manager for Zotero 7 but it only reached beta prerelease (in 2023). The posted Issues suggest it may have some problems working in the most recent iterations of v7. https://github.com/FrLars21/ZoteroCitat…

Your point about different relative costs in different regions is well-taken. For students and others for whom the cost of storage plans is prohibitive, there are lower- or zero-cost options like linked files (facilitated by a plugin like Zotmoov) o…

@dstillman thanks for the confirmation. The reason I asked is that I've come across a number of people implementing WebDAV with a mix of stored and linked files who expected both to be uploaded to their WebDAV server. They were people who understood…
-
@dstillman I believe it is also the case that WebDAV only syncs stored files to the WebDAV server, not linked files (the documentation is a little unclear on that) ? https://www.zotero.org/support/sync#webdav

Regarding detecting redundant and under-used tags, you can get an alphabetically sorted list of all your tags (along with usage count) relatively easily: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/97395/is-there-any-way-to-get-a-list-of-current-tags Rega…

To be clear, if you want to use linked files to facilitate PDF access in an external PDF reader on a mobile device (because you can't use Zotero syncing/mobile apps for some reason), you can either have *all* your PDFs saved as linked files, or just…
-
@CMKONRAD the guide you mention (which now seems to be a 2024 update of a 2018 original ?) simply describes a cloud-based, "linked" PDF files setup across multiple computers, facilitated by Zotmoov. Since linked PDF files are not accessible from the…

Use Zotmoov or Attanger in place of Zotfile.

There is no default linking of in-text citations to the bibliography. That can be done for the most common citation styles with a MS Word macro, as described below and at the author's Github (also linked): https://citationstyler.com/en/knowledge/lin…

I achieve some grouping by adding an underscore prefix to the names of my "topic" saved seaches. So they are all at the top of the list. "Author" saved searches don't have that, so they end up at the bottom. Any really important searches I add a dou…

Not currently. And while there is the option to add a column to the main pane that shows each item's attachment, annotation and note counts, there is no Related count column. That would be useful. Similar to user-added item links under Related, th…
