It's not clear what you mean by "Custom Directory". That's not a Zotero thing. Were you using Zotfile under Zotero v6 (it has a "Custom Location" folder - the location where it saves linked PDF files)

You can still use Zotfile/Zotmoov for renaming, but Zotero 7 has powerful renaming features built in, so you don't need to and probably shouldn't

I've been using Zotero as my reference manager for years. Since the beginning, I’ve been using Zotfile and OneDrive to back up all my files. This worked fine as long as I only used my PC to access the

ZotFile is in fact no longer compatible with Zotero -- I'm also not aware what it'd be used for in an Obsidian workflow. Most functionality of ZotFile is replaced by ZotMoov or Attanger, but can't say

I'm trying to connect Zotero and Obsidian. I followed a tutorial that recommended installing the plugins Better BibTeX and ZotFile. The BibTeX plugin worked just fine, but I can't get ZotFile to insta

Changing Zotfile settings will only change where future PDFs get stored, not change where Zotero looks for existing linked PDFs (whose paths are stored in your Zotero database).

So during my PhD my supervisor and I setup my Zotero and zotfile library to link to my university OneDrive. Every PDF I downloaded I would rename and it would upload into my OneDrive folder. Now that

Zotmoov or attanger under Zotero v7 will replicate Zotfile's operation. Zotero's enhanced file renaming is now used, in place of Zotfile's.

I am trying to move back to Zotero from Paperpile. I set my directory base to a base location, it is ignored and all files still end up in the standard structure. I have removed all plugins, in case a

@DGSLaw -- note that Zutilo now has released (perhaps in beta, check their GitHub) a version compatible with Zotero 7 and ZotFile functionality is replicated for Zotero 7 my the zotmoov plugin.
