  1. On Zotfile development and Zotero 7

    by tim820 · May 8, 2023
    Given the substantial number of Zotfile users, I would assume that any changes required in Zotfile for Zotero 7 will be managed between the Zotero team and the Zotfile developer, as I believe happened
  2. On Zotfile development and Zotero 7

    by iagogv · May 8, 2023
    After reading this [1] recent comment I decided to open this issue. Zotfile is a plugin for Zotero whose usage seems to be very extended [2,5] through Zotero users, in particular for renaming (and ren
  3. Request: Storage options

    by tim820 · May 6, 2023
    Linked file setups are usually achieved with Zotfile. You are responsible for syncing, eg by setting PDFs to be stored by Zotfile in a cloud folder, and telling Zotero to look there for such files. Th
  4. Can folder hierarchy on harddrive mimic Zotero folder hierarchy?

    by adamsmith · May 5, 2023
    No, ZotFile, correctly set up, does this -- I would advise against it, since using linked files has a host of other disadvantages (e.g., you won't have file access from the Zotero mobile apps), but it

  6. "Automatically rename attachment files" not renaming files

    Ah, ok so ZotFile explains the difference. Thanks for your responses.
  7. "Automatically rename attachment files" not renaming files

    by adamsmith · May 4, 2023
    No, Full Text PDF (or, earlier, sometimes including the database name) has been the default since the beginning. There's no setting, but if you use ZotFile (which you might have in the past?) it will

    OK, so if you are not using Zotfile, or online Data or File Syncing, you just need to know where your Zotero data and attachments are stored:

    @javierieh Zotfile has a preference setting that determines which file types it moves/renames automatically when the Connector downloads a file:
  14. Help with ZotFile - Not moving PDFs to designated folder

    by javierieh · April 20, 2023
    The weird thing is that zotfile works with RSS feeds: if I click the "Add to my library" button on an item, zotfile will detect the snapshot generate and move it to the appropiate folder.

  17. PDFs (added both manually and by the connector) are going into the wrong directory

    by adamsmith · April 17, 2023
    Moving files is done by ZotFile, that's the preference you'd need to adjust (in addition to the linked file base directory -- but that doesn't move anything, it just tells Zotero where to look across

    Some results after trying to reproduce this behaviour, hoping that someone could restore this valuable feature of Zotero. (Tested with Zotero 6.0.23, and 6.0.23-beta.9+9a7486e53). Zotfile, Zutilo and
  19. Long-term storage planning: archival into cold storage?

    by tim820 · April 17, 2023
    You could also use Zotfile to move all attachments in those archived collections to linked files (in Zotfile's Custom Location, either locally or a cloud location). They would then no longer be synce
