  1. Zotfile and Beta version not creating linked files

    by bwiernik · July 27, 2021
    I would not recommend using Zotfile with the new PDF reader. Zotfile has not been updated to work with it, and its system for “moving” items is, under the hood, to delete the imported attachment and r
  2. Disable automatically adding "Extracted Annotations (date, time)" from note header

    by ddthomas · July 27, 2021
    @cdewitt I found that the note title "Extracted Annotations" is hardcoded in the Zotfile code. You see it here https://github.com/jlegewie/zotfile/blob/master/chrome/locale/en-US/zotfile.properties
  3. Zotfile not downloading

    by dstillman · July 26, 2021
    @JHHbks: That's a different issue. In Firefox you have to right-click and use "Save Link As…" (which the ZotFile page says if you hover over the download link) to prevent it from trying to install the

    I am using the beta version with pdf reader etc and have noticed that when I use the Chrome extension, the file will not be added to my library as a linked file - as it used to do before I got the be
  5. cannot open Zotfile renamed files after reinstalling Zotero

    by sunruyu · July 26, 2021
    I have changed the Custom Location to the previous folder in ZotFile Preferences, and newly input files are moved to this folder after renaming. Only previous renamed attachments cannot be opened.
  6. Linked file - Mac issue

    by dstillman · July 23, 2021
    Creating linked files instead of stored files from files on your computer doesn't have anything to do with any Zotero settings. The "Automatically attach associated PDFs and other files when saving it

    You can use ZotFile in various scenarios, but how exactly depends a bit on what you're after more precisely:

  9. Moving Library with attachments in custom directory from Windows to MacOS

    by nieuwland · July 22, 2021
    That seems to have done the trick, thanks. Now renaming and moving the attachments back to Dropbox, but ZotFile is taking its time, to put it mildly.
  10. [bug] Manage Attachments/Rename sometimes fails to rename

    by dstillman · July 22, 2021
    You'd want to open an issue for that on the ZotFile GitHub page (but note that the developer isn't actively maintaining ZotFile, so I wouldn't expect a fix anytime soon).
  11. Moving Library with attachments in custom directory from Windows to MacOS

    by nieuwland · July 22, 2021
    I'm currently moving all my files from a Windows 10 laptop to a new MacBook. Zotero has its attachments in a custom Dropbox folder, using Zotfile. The question is how to move everything over with the

  13. Zotfile not automatically renaming PDFs or moving them to specified folder in cloud storage

    by adamsmith · July 20, 2021
    When you say from the connector, are you saving the PDF directly from the connector (which wouldn't be expected to work with Zotfile's auto-move) or are you saving an item with Zotero automatically at
  14. Zotfile not automatically renaming PDFs or moving them to specified folder in cloud storage

    by bryanjohnang · July 20, 2021
    As per title, Zotfile does not seem to be automatically renaming PDFs or moving them to cloud storage, even when using Zotero Connector. I know the limitation of dragging and dropping into Zotero, but
  15. Zotfile put note text before markdown

    by pbhope · July 20, 2021
    Currently (vr 5.0.16-fx) zotfile exports the contents of markup before the contents of any attached notes, so that the notes follow the markup EXCEPT for replies to a note, which precede the markup. I
