hey peeps,
I just started with obsedian for my ma thesis and am quite new but am quite in awe of all the possibilities obsedian has with all the add-ons
however I have struggeled now a but with setting up the citations add-on, so I can use the proper linking of pdfs and template
What I’m trying to do
I wanna be able to use zotero pdfs (with annotations incorporated from zotero) in obsedian and have managed to install citations and zotero integrations ( and installed in zotero Better BibTeX: ZotFile). Everything worked quite well, imported my pdfs from zotero
Then I wanted to set up the template settings for citations which determine how links will be rendered.
This is how my template settings look like:
title: {{title}}
authors: {{authorString}}
year: {{year}}
{{title}}
{{authorString}} ({{year}})
Tags:
[!ABSTRACT]-
{{abstract}}
Also I was wondering why my template settings appear in red and the first letter of the title is missing…
Things I have tried
now I tried to change the citekey or incorporate the Bibtex citaton key formula from zotero (auth + year + shorttitle(3,3)) or the renaming format from zotfile ({%a_}{%y_}{%t}) yet not much changed when I tried to open a new note linked to the pdf stored in obsedian.
I have also looked in the forum (searched for pdf linking, pdf, internal links) but maybe I have not looked for the right terms or my question is too basic.
I am grateful for any tip or rediredt to the right term to search for in the forum or youtube link^^
Also sorry for this probably really basic question!
