That's too esoteric for Zotero proper, but it could be done in ZotFile or another plugin.

When renaming an item in Zotero with the Zotfile add-on, the file is not only renamed but moved to the nominated folder for Linked Attachments. I use that folder for all my .pdf files, but I like to

I like the feature by which one can update the name of an attachment by a simple right click. Native Zotero and Zofile both do this, albeit in slightly different ways. Zotfile also (optionally) chan

takes several minutes to load files. I'm using Zotfile with the storage file located in my Google Drive, but I doubt this is the issue, because I have the identical setup on my very old (2012) Macboo

Hey, this has bugged me for a while now. I have tried editing the pdfAnnotations.js stored in the folder zotfile/chrome/content/zotfile (of the zotfile@columbia.edu.xpi file in :\Users\...\AppData\Roa

Thank you. This allows to use the citekey to rename the file. I've found some discussions that helps. But I still can't manage to add the citekey in the note created by extracting the annotations. It'
