I entered the same path in the Tablet Settings in zotfile but when I click on the pdf icon in my Zotero iOS app I get "The attached file is not available in the online library" although it is saved. P

If there is no way to fix this, is there a way to revert to the old version of zotero with the zotfile extract annotations function? I never encountered this problem with the zotfile version of extrac

hi! looking for help on zotfile. basically, i would like to use an alternate subfolder structure for book sections - one that includes the publication (i.e. the book's title). so path would be ~Type/Y

What worked for me is to press "Update MOdification time" under "Modify attachements" before I pressed "Get from Tablet". This option is not available if you right-click an item on zotero subcollectio

I am aware of solutions like linked files and zotfile, but even after some hours of research, i dont seem to really understand how do they work, nor there are any authoritative guides I can find that
