Zotero has had the ability to easily create/link books and book sections for some time now: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/414680/#Comment_414680 The option for chapters to actually appear in the main pane under their parent book rath…

You can't select them as such. But only attachment files in local Zotero storage get synced online (ie those under Zotero\storage); as long as you have file syncing turned on and are under your online file storage quota. Attachment files which you d…

Getting a paper's citations (reference list) via text parsing or from Crossref is already available in the zotero-reference plugin (use Chrome's right-click Translate to English on the instructions, as the English language readme is not currently av…

@kamran_ the latest significant interface changes in the Zotero v7 beta look to have broken a few things. They should be fixed in time. https://github.com/MuiseDestiny/zotero-reference/issues

@ridvanbinici I think that Actions&Tags script gives the number of times a paper has been cited by others. Not the number of references it cites. See the relevant code: json['is-referenced-by-count'] But maybe someone can come up with a script …

Most cases are single-step. There is only one case where you need need two steps to create a linked attachment file; and so generally you just avoid that one. Firstly, as you found, for any PDF attachments that have mistakenly ended up under Zotero…

It sounds like the PDF files that are not syncing are linked PDFs (not files in Zotero storage under Zotero\storage). The differences between the two ways of storing PDF attachment files is outlined here: https://www.zotero.org/support/attaching_fil…

How are you adding files to Zotero ? PDF files will be renamed/moved to Zotfile's Custom Location as linked files for attachment files ... Downloaded via the Zotero Connector (as long as the actual PDF download is successful). Right-click Manage At…

The zotero-reference plugin can give you the reference count in the PDF viewer. You get a new 'References' tab there. It uses text parsing of the actual PDF or API lookup from Crossref to display the numbered reference list. Those methods are not co…

Regarding the Zotero account ownership issue, you may also want to check your institution's intellectual property (IP) policy. In my experience, academic institutions have not generally claimed ownership of "scholarly works" by staff (except teachin…

You can get a count for each journal title by running the following code under Tools\Developer\Run Javascript: var jnltitleFieldID = Zotero.ItemFields.getID('publicationTitle'); var sql = "SELECT value AS jnltitle, COUNT(*) AS num FROM itemData JOI…

Regarding your question about the meaning of 'sync full-text content', it's the text indexing of your attachments that allows full text searching ... https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/102077/what-is-the-difference-between-sync-tull-text-content-…

Your online storage quota and current usage on Zotero storage is shown here: https://www.zotero.org/settings/storage If you have used up your online storage quota, then syncing of new items to Zotero online storage will not be possible. You can of …

@alx359 I was actually thinking of an encryption app, like VeraCrypt.

You can dedicate a collection in your library specifically for items whose PDFs you want to read in Zotero on your phone (they can of course also still stay in the collections to which they originally belonged). That requires some planning. On your …

I'm not really advocating that Zotero use a simple incrementing-integer-from-1 citekey. I am advocating a reader friendly, unambiguous but suitably short, robust citekey (simpler for example than ODF Scan's default format, which was possibly designe…

This plugin detects when you are downloading an item that matches an existing item and gives you several options: https://chenglongma.com/zoplicate/

I appreciate the powerful workflows that can be implemented with additional, currently available tools. But their complexity is beyond the needs and/or abilities of most users. The Endnote style approach just "works" for a basic user. As does the cu…

This thread had taken a few twists and turns. To save people needing Zotfile-like functionality under Zotero v7 (currently in beta) having to read the whole thread, in order to figure out where things are at now ... in summary the two plugins offeri…

Thanks @emilianoheyns. I think both *small* and *unambiguous* are equally important for unformatted citations. And I should add 'read friendly'. If a grad student is circulating their work to their supervisors for review (who can load work with unfo…

A more streamlined, Endnote-like version of unformatted citations fully integrated into Zotero's standard workflows would be great (without the need for the current extra layers of user processes) ... - inbuilt item citation keys (like Endnote's re…

The fact that the error message is still referring to the folder on the old computer suggests that either (1) Zotero's conversion process from absolute to relative linked file paths (pointing them to the Linked Attachment Base Directory) has not occ…

Some thoughts ... In Zotfile preferences under Renaming Rules, do you have 'Use Zotero to Rename' turned OFF (as it should be). When you select an item in the Zotero main pane and hit the Update button in Zotfile preferences to Preview Current Ren…

If the references in your inherited Word document are not actually live Zotero (or Mendeley) citations, but just plain text, you can instead use the AnyStyle website to extract the references from the reference list and export/import into Zotero. Th…

The Zotero process is designed to work without the need to change any linked PDF file locations - and it almost always does. The error is telling you where Zotero thinks the linked file is. So that's the key to determining what's likely going wrong.…

I hope that in the relatively near future a paper's citations list and its 'cited-by' list (which would need updating from time to time) will become separate and formal parts of an item's metadata in Zotero (currently those two are only retrievable …

It's a pity that there is less discussion in this Forum on how to actually use Zotero for different writing needs, than there is on how to fix problems. That link is the sort of discussion for which it has been suggested that this Forum needs differ…

It's common to have linked PDF files at slightly different path locations on each computer. Zotero can deal with that easily by entering the parent folder location on a given computer under Linked Attachment Base Directory (Edit\Preferences\Advanced…

It would also facilitate a useful 'lite' version of nested tags, ie a single tag with the name 'parent_tag->child_tag'. So when typing child_tag into the tag box, the nested tag 'parent_tag->child_tag' would be amongst the matching suggestions…
