    by emahlan · January 28, 2019
    I think this is the same issue I am having on my Microsoft Surface. Here is an example of my underlying zotfile: zotero://open-pdf/library/items/49X6TVYA?page=11
  2. Turning off renaming of PDFs

    by bjohas · January 27, 2019
    Is there a way to turn off renaming of PDFs? I've got ZotFile set to let Zotero do the renaming, and then I've got turned renaming off (Prefs > General).
  3. Switching from linked PDFs to Zoteros own database

    by somainer · January 27, 2019
    Would a developer or a very experienced user please weigh in on whether or not exporting Zotero database and attachments in RIS format (from a linked attachment file system based on Zotfile), then imp

    2) Set the Zotfile plugin to rename and move attachments to this folder.
  6. Renaming issue with multiple attachments in an item

    by bwiernik · January 27, 2019
    1) Zotfile can automatically move attachments when you add items to Zotero, so you shouldn’t need to manually choose the Rename and move often. Zotfile can’t currently avoid renaming all attachments.
  7. BASE cf. DATA directories

    by adamsmith · January 27, 2019
    What you write is basically right except that Zotero itself will not save anything to the base directory regardless of settings. You can set up ZotFile to do so, but will have to separately set the Zo
  8. Migrating PDF files from \Zotero\storage\8RNDCHRS\ to a \user\specified\folder

    Dear Sir! My zotero desktop lack zotfile, and I couldn't download it to extract notes from PDFs. What shall I do?
  10. Renaming issue with multiple attachments in an item

    by wobbuuu · January 26, 2019
    1) I use Zotfile to manage attachments: to automatically move them to the folder of the external cloud and rename them. As far as I understand there is no option to do this automatically after creatio
  11. ZotFile - Advanced PDF management for Zotero

    by tmchartrand · January 24, 2019
    Has anyone on the zotfile side looked into this bug with moving linked attachments back to zotero storage?
  12. Can I duplicate attachments without duplicating an item?

    by bwiernik · January 23, 2019
    You can do this in a roundabout way using the “Send to Tablet” feature in the Zotfile plugin. It can save a separate annotated copy when it retrieves the PDFs. No actual tablet is necessary.
  13. Switching from linked PDFs to Zoteros own database

    by somainer · January 23, 2019
    Can other users confirm or deny if batch conversion of linked attached files to Zotero storage via Zotfile is broken?

    by somainer · January 21, 2019
    Thanks to bwiernik for the help, and major props to ZotFile developer jlegewie!
  15. Switching from box sync and Papership to linked file attachments in OneDrive and PDF viewer

    by somainer · January 20, 2019
    If I simply follow the steps in my original post, then will Zotero/Zotfile move all the PDFs to the OneDrive folder, or do I have to initiate that process in some manner?
  16. Zotfile-Location of files-use subfolder

    by liuz.liuzhao · January 20, 2019
    Hi! I apologize if the question may sound too simple. I'm using Zotero on Mac Mojave. The problem is that even though I left unchecked "Use subfolder defined by...", Zotero still creates a separate f…
  17. Switching from box sync and Papership to linked file attachments in OneDrive and PDF viewer

    by somainer · January 19, 2019
    With box.com about to drop support for webDAV, and the app that I synced to on my iPad and iPhone (PaperShip) long since abandoned by the developer, I’m thinking of changing my workflow to using Linke
  18. Help syncing to Box via Box Drive

    by bwiernik · January 17, 2019
    Box no longer supports WebDAV syncing, so you can't directly use Zotero's file syncing ability with it any longer. See here for how you can use Box with linked files in combination with the Zotfile pl
  19. Transferring attachments from My Library to Group Library

    by adamsmith · January 17, 2019
    (I believe doing so in batch is currently broken for ZotFile, unfortunately: https://github.com/jlegewie/zotfile/issues/368 meaning there is no quick way to do this that I'm aware of)
  20. move from zotero storage synced over webdav to sync'd folder based Linked Files

    by dstillman · January 16, 2019
    You can use the third-party ZotFile plugin for that.
