Export-->>Import!Minus Links and Attachments

mbruffey
188BET靠谱吗I'm trying to export my library from one version of Zotero and import it into another.The process works fine, except that I only want to export (or import) Items and Notes--minus links and attachments.I don't know if/whether I am missing a checkbox on export or import.No matter what I try, the import routine keeps finding links (I have many links to PDFs) and converting these into "real" files.I don't need all that, nor do I have space for it.How can I import only items and notes?Thx, m

    Is there a reason you're not either syncing or duplicating your data directory?

    188BET靠谱吗I don't sync, and I am going from Juris-M to Zotero 5.

    There's not way to preserve links to (local) files on import I'm afraid.

    Actually [I think] I figured out a way to do it.I'd just have to do it in increments because I have gigs of linked pdfs.On export check both the RDF checkboxes (Notes!Files).Run it.When it's done, go into the folder that was created and delete the subfolder /Files.Then import the .rdf file that remains.m
