I have Zotfile Extension installed. Maybe Zotfile is involved in the error?!

on both my ipad and computer. I've installed zotfile but it simply doesn't do this. I currently have two collections in zotero, in one of them, when i save a new source it will be put the pdf in the

Set up Zotfile to store files in Box.

I've been using Zotfile for moving attachments (symlinks to pdf files) when items moved from collection to collection. Structure of my library in Zotero and on the filesystem are identical. So when I

The renaming tools are separate, but you set Zotfile to automatically rename files as well. Zotfile's renaming will override Zotero's.

@bwiernik Thanks for the reply. Does the customization inside the Zotfile influences the auto-renaming mechanism of the Zotero itself? I thought Zotfile is a standalone plugin, and Zotero and Zotfile

ZotFile is based on the idea the PDF files are attached to Zotero items. It moves files that are attached to Zotero items automatically, but it doesn't move top level PDF files. Now that Zotero automa

Another problem: my "Source folder for attaching new files" in ZotFile is not updating. I move a file to that folder and it doesn't appear at Zotero.
