  1. Zotfile Set-up Question

    by tim820 · September 3, 2022
    If Zotero DID download the PDF successfully, to then find out where Zotero (or Zotfile) has stored the PDF, click on the item in the main Zotero pane and select Show File from the popup menu. That sho

    The Manage Attachments\Rename and Move that is under "tablet settings" is checked but greyed out. However, then I click on "Use Zotfile to send and get files from table" it activates the seletcion but

    by tim820 · September 3, 2022
    Manage Attachments\Rename and Move cause Zotfile to move the file to your cloud location as it should ? (also popping up the message dialog to confirm that).
  4. Zotfile Set-up Question

    by tim820 · September 3, 2022
    Under Tools\Zotfile Preferences, on the General Settings tab, do you have Custom Location (under Location of Files) set to the cloud folder location where you want Zotfile to move each new PDF downloa
  5. Zotfile Set-up Question

    by army-jag341 · September 3, 2022
    Hi there, I had to transfer computers and I do not think I set up Zotfile like I had it before, so I am hoping someone can help me understand what I am doing wrong.
  6. Could not sync the latest modified pdf with 'send to tablet' in zotfile

    I'm trying to sync pdf files between my PC and ipad by using zotfile 5.1.1, runing on zotero 6.0.13.
  7. Zotfile not working?

    by bwiernik · September 1, 2022
    Personally, I would recommend using a storage provider that offers WebDAV so that you can use Zotero’s built-in WebDAV sync support, rather than Zotfile.
  8. Extract Annotation not appear after install add-on ZotFile

    by m.sopheak · September 1, 2022
    1) I have installed Zotfile already, but there is no Extract Annotation tag while right click on the File (it shows only Rename and More, and Get table of Contents) even i made highlight and comment o
  9. Zotfile not working?

    by sebdeferm · August 31, 2022
    I would like to use Zotfile as I have a huge amount of attachments which take up too much storage for normal Zotero Syncing.
  10. Word: buttons for Zotero citing are not working

    by pavrostiva · August 31, 2022
    I'm using Microsoft Office LTSC 2021 and Zotero 6 (with ZotFile extension and syncing off).
  11. ZotFile Renaming Bug (Date/Year)

    by qqbb · August 29, 2022
    Just in case it's unclear: search for "extensions.zotfile.wildcards.default" in the Config Editor, right-click the preference, select "Modify", then paste in the value given above.
  12. ZotFile Renaming Bug (Date/Year)

    by qqbb · August 29, 2022
    I wouldn't wait for the PR to be merged. It's unclear if or when that might happen. So simply open Zotero's Config Editor and change the "extensions.zotfile.wildcards.default" preference. (The PR has
  13. ZotFile Renaming Bug (Date/Year)

    by PNDPermitting · August 29, 2022
    - Forgive me for another question, but I know just enough about GitHub to get myself into trouble. Does this pull request mean that future downloads of the ZotFile xpi would incorporate your fix, or w
  14. ZotFile Renaming Bug (Date/Year)

    by qqbb · August 29, 2022
    @PNDPermitting: You can fix this issue by changing the preference extensions.zotfile.wildcards.default in the Config Editor to this value:
  15. ZotFile Renaming Bug (Date/Year)

    by adamsmith · August 29, 2022
    I'm pretty sure you can use ZotFile's moving with Zotero's renaming.
  16. ZotFile Renaming Bug (Date/Year)

    by PNDPermitting · August 29, 2022
    That's a valid point. I use ZotFile to store references on our network server; renaming is only a side benefit. I think I was hoping to approximate my Calibre storage at one point, to see if I could c
  17. ZotFile Renaming Bug (Date/Year)

    by adamsmith · August 29, 2022
    (ZotFile is barely maintained/updated these days, so I wouldn't count on very active bugfixes there)
  18. ZotFile Renaming Bug (Date/Year)

    by PNDPermitting · August 29, 2022
    I'm not sure how/if this type of bug report works now, since the ZotFile page refers folks to a specific thread that has now been closed, but here's some undesirable behavior I noticed...

    by PNDPermitting · August 29, 2022
    Yes, with ZotFile you can use wildcards to define both subfolder structure and file names. Read more here: http://zotfile.com/index.html#renaming-rules. Subfolders are defined in the ZotFile "General
  20. Currently working Webdav Server

    by reesbaal · August 29, 2022
    I set up the sync using Zotfile (to rename and move attachments), using the guide (from Stephen Chignell, via ResearchGate) here: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/325828616_Tutorial_The_Best_R
