  1. Seeking Support: Automation between Zotero, Zotfile, and OneDrive

    by KateWho · July 8, 2024
    I use Zotero for referencing, and store PDFs and ebooks on OneDrive (Source Folder). I have added the Zotfile extension to rename and move processed (renamed and linked) files into a new OneDrive fold
  2. Zotfile and next version of zotero

    by smokingduck · July 7, 2024
    I'm starting a new workflow combining devonthink and zotero. I use Zotero for its superior capturing abilities, and for citing while I write. All attachments are moved using zotfile to a onedrive fold

  5. Available for beta testing: Zotero, redesigned

    by radhikrammohan · July 4, 2024
    The Zotfile plugin doesn't work. But using base directory with relative paths is enough.
  6. Folder names in storage folder differ from last backup

    by ChristianZimpelmann · July 1, 2024
    I recently reinstalled Windows on my computer and reinstalled Zotero 6 (together with the Zotfile and BetterBibTex extension)
  7. Add Note From Annotations doesn't do anything...

    by tim820 · June 29, 2024
    @wtanksleyjr re Zotfile, its replacements under Zotero v7 (currently in beta) are attanger or zotmoov.

    full-time to Z7, with serious regret for losing ZotFile.
  9. How to have Zotero rename the parent directory based on the pdf file name instead of the paper name?

    by adamsmith · June 27, 2024
    Zotero doesn't rename directories at all. ZotFile can name directories, but only based on Zotero metadata, not, I'm pretty sure, based on filenames, no.
  10. In browser zotero, sync through zotfile?

    by adamsmith · June 19, 2024
    A lot of what you write isn't very precise, terminology wise, so it's hard to judge if it would work (e.g., you don't 'sync' with Zotfile). In particular, it's not clear what you mean by "the in-brows
  11. In browser zotero, sync through zotfile?

    by discordantdungeoneer · June 18, 2024
    I'm trying to use a workflow like the one described in "Paperwise" written by walter teng. Which means I'd be syncing research rabbit to zotero on the regular, and storing it with zotfile in a mega fo
  12. Is it possible to bulk rename file attachments?

    by tim820 · June 15, 2024
    Since linked PDFs are (most commonly) all stored in the same folder, they must have distinct names. So Zotfile (AFAIK) adds the '2' suffix if there is already a file of the same name in that folder (o
  13. Is it possible to bulk rename file attachments?

    by jwbullard66 · June 14, 2024
    I have the zotfile plugin setup to put PDF attachments in my ~/Documents/Papers folder on a Mac, and that is working just fine. However, for some reason I cannot remember, Zotero itself adds a digit
  14. The Zotfile implemented in multiple computers is not working

    by JavierHerRe · June 14, 2024
    As I previously commented before here, I'm working with Zotfile in a GDrive environment with 3 PCs. One PC is the main setup, whose disk is called C and the folder that contains the attached files is
  15. Watch folder

    by pivik · June 14, 2024
    @tim820, @dstillman, I should have spent more time investigating documentation. Thank you for the explanations! Now I realize that I can move files from Zotero folders to wherever I want with Zotfile.
  16. Watch folder

    by tim820 · June 13, 2024
    @pivik people who need easier access to their PDFs outside Zotero often look at linked attachments. Often with management aided via Zotfile. Linked files also have limitations though (see link below).
  17. Linked Attachment Base Directory and Moving Zotero to an External HDD

    by fost219 · June 12, 2024
    I maintain rather large Group Libraries whose attachments need to be stored locally from what I have experienced. I have used ZotFile to move most of my own attachments to pCloud. This has worked well

    by tim820 · June 3, 2024
    When you have finished working with those items*, you would then convert them back to linked files in Zotero desktop, using Zotfile (Zotero v6) or attanger\zotmoov (Zotero v7). And then remove them fr
  20. Android: Linked files

    by onemaize · June 3, 2024
    OK, it is impossible to link to local files. I do not want to pay for the storage either using webadv. Is there any other approaches except for zotfile.
