Seaching for empty fields usually works via "does not contain" (leave blank). Which I read as "does not contain anything". Somewhat unintuitive. ;) For example @bradleyjdixon 's search works correctly when entered as: Title Contains : Short title D…

If you want to keep your PDFs on Google Drive (or any other cloud-mirrored service), you would need to save them as "linked" files in Zotero. See the differences between stored and linked files, including limitations: https://www.zotero.org/support/…
-
Linked PDFs show under their item in the main pane with the chain-link PDF icon. Stored PDFs don't have the chain-link. To convert linked PDFs back to stored files, select item(s) or PDF(s) in the main pane, then use Tools\Manage Attachments\Conver…

All you need to do is post the Debug ID (number) here.

So it sounds like your PDF attachment files are stored as "linked" PDFs in Google Drive ? But hopefully not your Zotero data folder, which you cannot do ... https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/data_directory_in_cloud_storage_folder https://www.zotero.…

To be clear, Zotmoov doesn't actually "have" your linked PDF files, so you're not moving them "out of" Zotmoov. ;) They are in a linked files folder you designated (to Zotmoov). The exact location of each linked file was written into the Zotero data…

You unlink Zotero citations in the final document and then do Word's Auto Format to make the URLs live ... https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/445021/#Comment_445021

@stoiclemming also note that the zotmoov plugin does not require anything like the steps you described, in order to work properly.

In your OS's file manager, check the total size of all the files under the Zotero\storage hierarchy. That is roughly what you would need. That \storage folder is in your Zotero data folder. https://www.zotero.org/support/zotero_data
-
Do a search in your OS's file manager of the folder hierarchy under Zotero\storage, for *.PDF. Sort by size. The PDF file name may be enough to tell you which Zotero item a big PDF belongs to. If not, put its folder name (eg 2BJZFJXT) in Zotero's Qu…

There is data syncing (metadata) and file syncing (eg PDFs). Zotero data syncing is free and unlimited. File syncing is free up to 300mb. There are several alternative file syncing options, including linked files and WebDAV. But they have limitatio…

The Related tab is a bit of an undefined hold-all. As you indicate, there is no way to signify *why* you have placed an item under Related - was it cited by the paper, or has it cited this paper, or did you put the item under Related for some other …

@Hoangna not sure what you mean by "separate them", but Zotero Groups do not support linked files at all (so it's not a Zotmoov issue). https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files#linked_files

You can add PDFs as linked files by drag and drop with the appropriate modifier key ... https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files#adding_files_via_the_zotero_window

Firstly, the Zotero devs may be able to explain why Zotero's LABD setting is failing to achieve the desired result in this instance. Regarding other options, the Zutilo plugin has linked file options for Show/Modify/Copy Attachment Paths. Show Atta…

If it's ON then Show Items From Subcollections will have a tick mark next to it in the View menu. Click on it to turn it OFF. If it was *already* OFF then obviously there's a different explanation for what you saw.

Do you have View\Show Items From Subcollections turned ON ? In which case adding/removing new items in (other) subcollections would have changed the number of items appearing in parent collections (such that you might have thought that the number of…

The clue to solving these problems is usually the Zotero error message. When you try to open a linked PDF and it fails, does the Zotero error message tell you the path where Zotero thinks that PDF should be ? If so, is the PDF actually at that locat…

Adding them as linked files is still done via drag and drop, just with a modifier key held down while dragging/dropping ... https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files#adding_files_via_the_zotero_window And then the conversion from linked to sto…

Zotmoov or attanger under Zotero v7 will replicate Zotfile's operation. Zotero's enhanced file renaming is now used, in place of Zotfile's. So as long as your linked PDF attachment files are synced via Onedrive so that they are present on each com…

@manouchk re your mention of the Linked Attachment Base Directory (LABD), that is irrelevant to the issues of *saving* linked files (via the Connector) or *converting* files already in local Zotero storage to linked files. The LABD only affects whe…

So you got a one-tag-per-line list of all your tags including the badly imported long tags from running the code at the link above ? If scrolling through that list is too difficult to find the long tags (you could copy and paste the list into a tex…

You can get a list of all your tags as described here. Too-long tags should be obvious. https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/97395/is-there-any-way-to-get-a-list-of-current-tags

Cites/cited-by relationships are actually handled quite well by the Reference plugin. https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-reference * It extracts that information automatically when requested by the user - from each PDF and from online metadata …

I assume you mean you have moved from an old computer where your Zotero library was, to the new laptop. In which case, see https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/transferring_a_library
