My biggest concern is having to move to a new computer or having to install Zotero from scratch and losing the attachments. At the moment I use ZotFile whereby my PDFs are always moved to a specific l

Using Zotfile I can have my attachments in the university cloud. I want to open the PDFs just like I do at my laptop, i.e. open Zotero en click on the PDF I want to open. There is no linked stored loc

I've been using Better Bibtext to create a Citation Key and then have Zotfile setup to rename the PDFs I attach to match the cite key. This has been working fine but today I noticed that it wasn't nam
