    by VitalyR · June 5, 2022

    by dstillman · June 1, 2022
    I can't help with ZotFile, but you shouldn't need to think in terms of the 'storage' folder here. There's either a stored attachment in Zotero (which implies a file in 'storage') or there isn't. Note

  5. zotero crash when importing citations from add-on

    by garenkay · June 1, 2022
    If it helps, I'm running the current version of zotero (6.0.8) and use zotfile in order to organize/rename my imported pdfs. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling zotero but that didn't change the
  6. Zotfile: Custom Location not working

    by adamsmith · June 1, 2022
    ZotFile's auto rename&move doesn't trigger when you add files to Zotero as top level items. You need to manually trigger Rename & move for those using right-click --> Manage Attachments.

    In Zotfile's pluggin, I've set the "Custom Location" to a pdf directory on our server, but when I add files to the Zotero app they are still copied to my local "storage" directory, filling up my compu
  8. How to export notes?

    by markhampton · May 27, 2022
    I'd like to second the idea of exporting notes to individual files for knowledge management tools. I'm guessing many users have/had a flow with zotfile that assumed individual notes in MD. A related q

  13. Feature request: function to generate a book section based on a book

    by mtl_zack · May 23, 2022
    I realize that the PDF viewer is still very new, but perhaps a feature could also be added to trim out pages outside the scope of the specific section. I typically do this outside of zotero as part of
  14. Import PDFs linked in BibDesk file into Zotero

    by aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa · May 23, 2022
    How would one achieve the reverse of this? That is, import PDFs linked in Zotero into BibDesk? I use ZotFile and BetterBibTeX for Zotero, and I'm trying to point BibDesk to the Zotero library because
  15. Markdown export: Colors and tags in output

    by dstillman · May 21, 2022
    This is some sort of misunderstanding. I'm saying you can just export the note in HTML mode, which will preserve the spans you've added to the note template (i.e., the "lovely squares of colour"). Mar

    When I add a new Zotero entry from Chrome, Zotfile successfully moves and renames it to my specified new location, but it leaves behind a dead link to the old location. Any idea how to fix this? It's
  17. Markdown export: Colors and tags in output

    by erazlogo · May 21, 2022
    I do agree that there should be a way to export highlight colors--it seems odd that they get lost. Zotfile export highlight colors.
  18. Best practice using Zotfile

    by dstillman · May 17, 2022
    What I'm not sure about is what ZotFile does with the existing attachment item when you use Get from Tablet. It's possible it just copies in the modified PDF file itself, in which case the externally
  19. Best practice using Zotfile

    by dstillman · May 17, 2022
    ZotFile doesn't know anything about annotations created within Zotero, which are stored in the Zotero database. If you're using an external PDF reader elsewhere, you'll likely want to use an external
