Since you are using the Zotero 7 beta, it's also possible you are referring to missing the right-click Manage Attachments\Rename and Move which is a feature of the Zotfile plugin (which also auto-renames PDFs as they are downloaded by the Zotero web…

Good to clarify. @knutatle did say in the other thread that they had used zotero-file to move PDFs to Dropbox and now wanted to move them back (also, zotero-file has not implemented Zotfile's send to tablet feature). So I assumed that is what they w…

If one looks at the whole field of "knowledge management" software (reference management software, zettelkasten/note taking apps, writing tools beyond simple word processors), the options can seem overwhelming. Especially if you already have a workf…

The Zotero feature (Tools\Manage Attachments\Convert Linked Files to Stored Files) has always been the way to move linked PDF attachments back to Zotero storage. Zotfile never had a way to do that as far as I know (as it was not needed). So chances …

@knutatle you just use the standard Zotero routine: Tools\Manage Attachments\Convert Linked Files to Stored Files.

Zotfile is still fully functional under the current release of Zotero, that is v6. However Zotfile is not being updated to work under the different requirements of Zotero v7 (currently in beta). The several plugins that are attempting to implement …

That bug is usually associated with the zotero night plugin, but may be gone under Zotero 7 ... https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/446796/#Comment_446796

Zotfile will not work under Zotero 7. https://github.com/jlegewie/zotfile/issues/655 The options look to be @polygon 's zotero-file (which has worryingly disappeared from github in recent days, hopefully only temporarily) and zotmoov. https://forum…

It sounds like you may have skipped the step where you scan your document's text {citations} to convert them to live Zotero citations, using the ODF Scan plugin in Zotero, eg https://libguides.princeton.edu/c.php?g=148292&p=5241020

There is also some code to list the collections to which a selected item belongs, that can be run under Tools\Developer\Run Javascript: https://gist.github.com/KalebNyquist/2ca3ac322751578b6d791cd90b4df15b It would be nice if someone turned that co…

The annoying issue where the wrong info appeared in the right pane for the current opened PDF is apparently gone with the Zotero 7 beta. This was the single issue that caused me to stop using this otherwise-nice plugin. https://github.com/tefkah/zot…

It seems that Zotero File does not intend to do so ... "This plugin will gradually migrate the core functionality of ZotFile (tablet sync not included)" https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-file

What would be useful would be a Collections tab on the right side. Example code to list the collections to which a selected item belongs already exists, but must be run under Tools\Developer\Run Javascript, which makes it a bit impractical: https://…

As long as you annotated in the Zotero PDF reader, or have imported any annotations added in another PDF reader into Zotero, then the annotations are in your Zotero database as you say. So that doesn't change with any of the suggested scenarios. It'…

One of the great strengths of Zotero is that it offers options to students and staff who need to downsize when their circumstances change, such as when they graduate, change institutions/jobs, or retire. Since you *already* have a Zotfile-based, li…

This explains that annotation extraction is no longer part of Zotfile, as it became part of Zotero itself some time ago (when v6 was released) ... https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/zotfile_extract_annotations Linked from that page is further explan…

By default, Zotero stores PDF attachments locally under the Zotero\storage\ folder hierarchy (and can sync them across devices, up to your file storage limit). The alternative to that is to have your PDFs stored as linked files (eg using the Zotfile…

1. OCR should have no effect on metadata. 2. What do you mean by PDFs with "No matching references" ? If you mean no parent item, you add that with right-click Create Parent Item: https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files#child_versus_standalo…

Assuming that you really do mean a linked PDF atttachment (with the chain link icon), then Zotero does not delete the actual file when you delete a linked attachment - it only deletes the link. https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_files#linked_f…

Zotero supports similar curly-bracket unformatted citations as Endnote (ie for citing without needing the word processor plugin). It's a fast way to write/cite. Albeit Zotero's unformatted citations are a little more ambiguous than Endnote's because…
