Zotero Attanger is an open-source attachment management plugin that automates the organization of files associated with Zotero references. It allows users to keep attachments in Zotero storage, move them into external folders, or maintain organized copies. The software renames files using Zotero's native filename templates and reference metadata. Custom directory structures can be created using collection names, publication years, and other metadata fields. Researchers can attach recent downloads or match multiple PDF files to selected library items by title. Automatic processing handles attachments added through drag-and-drop, Zotero Connector, and supported import workflows. The plugin can also update linked filenames when reference metadata or Better BibTeX citation keys change.
