How to Connect Zotero and Obsidian for the Ultimate PhD Workflow
A how-to for duplicating my PhD workflow using Zotero, Obsidian, and Word. My work (and brain!) has been so much more organized since I adopted Obsidian, so here's how you can get started as well. The blog post where you can copy/paste the template code and hex codes: https://girlinbluemusic.com/how-to-co... I did figure out how to add the images in the correct spot in the annotations. It's in the template in the above blog post, but all you have to add to what's in the video is: {%- if annotation.imageRelativePath %} ![[{{annotation.imageRelativePath}}]] {%- endif %} within the larger {%for annotation in annotations-%} loop. You'll still have a folder of the images because they need to be stored somewhere in your vault, but this embeds them into the source-note as well! 3 Youtubers whose videos helped me get set up: Morganeua: / @morganeua Bryan Jenks: • 📜️ Zotero Research Paper Workflow | Full C...
