Zotfile's move functionality is almost certainly making it to Zotero v7, in at least one existing new plugin. It's only Zotfile's Send-to-Tablet that is not in either of the two new plugin candidates.

My current workflow is to bring PDFs into Zotero, where Zotfile immediately renames and moves the files. Then, one by one, I bring PDFs back into Zotero storage until I am roughly around 250mb of stor

- which versions of Zotero and Zotfile ?

I don't disagree that paid local storage works very well for many people who can afford it. ;) I just think that many other people need to use the available alternatives like linked files - academics

The solution that most people (and there are many, many of them) use for linked file setups is the Zotfile plugin (not the way WSU describes). As pointed out above, Zotfile is not available in Zotero

Also, unlike the tedious process for every PDF file described by WSU, a linked PDF file setup is usually achieved with the Zotfile plugin. You set Tools\Zotfile Preferences \Custom Location to your cl

Only stored files are supported on iOS. If you're getting linked files when you save, you installed and configured some plugin (probably ZotFile) that's doing that.

For the last few years I used a laptop on which I had Zotero installed and had Zotfile running so that when I used the Chrome widget to save a reference to Zotero, the PDF that came with it would be r

ZotFile 5.1.2

hm, can anyone advise on how to modify ZotFile to not include commas in the filenames?

It is worth noting that there are other answers mentioned that the lags are occoured by plugins "Zotero Style" or "Zotero Tag" or "zotfile" under this question.

OK, it's still a little unclear how you are using Zotfile/Zotero linked PDF files.

Exactly how are you saving to the onedrive folder with Zotfile ?

Under Advanced Settings in Zotfile Preferences, do you have 'Only work with the following file types' ticked ? And if so, is the file type you are trying to move - pdf - in that comma-separated list

Second best is using a WebDAV service for file syncing. Third best is figuring out what's not working with ZotFile -- what you're seeing isn't typical.

You've tried this with one individual item? Which version of Zotero? And would you mind sharing a screenshot of the first two tabs of your ZotFile preferences? (Upload to a free image hosting site & l

I'm wondering what is the best approach to synchronize pdf files between these two laptops? at the moment, I am using a onedrive folder, and I'm saving the pdfs to it. I've tried using zotfile, but ev
