Hello and welcome.
This channel provides information in several areas. As a consultant I do a considerable amount of reading and use Zotero Reference Manager and Obsidian Personal Knowledge Management system for note making. Several videos focus on those two areas. In addition, I look at various areas of leadership and management and how Artificial Intelligence can be infused to improve lives and outcomes.
I am particularly interested in the Community Organisation and small not-for-profit sector. I consider volunteers and their organisations to be the beating heart of our communities.
So, join me on this journey. Reach out with questions, comments and feel free to email me too. Visit my website at ricraftis.au and subscribe to my email list to keep abreast of changes.

The Awesome Power of Neurodivergence in Academia
In this thought-provoking video and accompanying article, I explore the impact of ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health diagnoses on individuals pursuing higher education, particularly those aiming for PhDs. These labels carry weight and can also pigeonhole our identities and influence how others perceive us.
Join me as we discuss the concept of identifying as neurodivergent instead. Discover how this broader term emphasises our unique ways of thinking and problem-solving while fostering deeper understanding and connection in our academic journeys.
Let us also recognise and celebrate the significant progress made in mental health conversations over the past 25 years, highlighting the courageous voices in podcasts and online platforms that are breaking down stigma. You’ll learn practical tips on how to communicate your neurodivergent identity effectively and embrace your strengths as part of a neurodiverse community.
🧠 Key Topics Covered:
- The limitations of traditional mental health labels
- Embracing neurodiversity as an alternative identity
- The evolution of mental health discussions in the last two decades
- Practical tips for navigating academic challenges
Whether you’re a student, educator, or simply curious about mental health, this video can provide an opportunity to reflect on labels!

Great work Ric. This was fantastic to watch. I’m diagnosed adhd, autism, and have Crohn’s disease. Neurodivergence helped me realise my strengths (whilst still acknowledging my disabilities) wanting to purse a PhD. Ric, in my life a great way to determine if an individual is kind and understanding is if they take the time and effort to understand others like you have in this video. Just fantastic and I wish you all the joys of life!
This helped me wrap my head around how to implement my stucture, cheers. FYI "30 - Obisidian" has a typo in it!
I have an idiot level question: How do I import over 2000 pdfs into the Zotero v7 library at one time, together, as one complete action?
Thanks for the video. I tried the adding the URL to a note and it worked for me. Maybe they fixed something recently.
I would like if you can attest claude ai ability and accuracy.

Obrigada!
Thanks Ric! How do you resize a video that's already on your desktop?
Very helpful, thank you!
Most plugins do not work
Hey, Ric! Thank you for the video! It helped me a lot and I think it will be super useful in my life. Thanks again for creating this video and also for sharing some great uses at the beginning of the video, there were some cool insights 😄
This is a very useful video. One thing I like about annotating PDFs in Zotero is that I can mark up the PDFs in Zotero, and save the notes, but if I want to share the document with a student or colleague, I can just export the file and it won't be all marked up. But I have found that Zotero's OCR sometimes is a bit glitchy, so it's good to open a PDF in Adobe, run OCR on the document, safe it, and then open it in Zotero. That seems to clear things up.
Thanks for your precious help !
Ric! Thanks so much for this guide, this is the "Last Mile" to make MindStudio AI Applications work for the clients and customers... Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it. There are many other options too by securing access to apps inside a member site.
Not sure if this is mentioned in the video (I've been on the Beta for some time so I already know most of the features). The biggest disadvantage for me has been that the epub annotations don't seem to import into Obsidian. Not sure if it's been fixed yet, but last time I checked it still didn't work. Personally, i'd prefer to use ebooks but this makes it a non-starter for me until the plugin is updated. I think basically any plugin that pulls annotations won't work until there's an update because presumably Zotero considers the 2 formats totally different entities. So, if you're using ebook annotations, make sure it's compatible with anything else you might be using before you start doing highlights
I appreciate this video, though I really wish the audio were a bit better. I also wish you had covered how to use private github repositories.
What problem did you find with the audio?
Thanks for the video -- like a lot of people, I'm eager to try out Zotero 7. A couple questions: which Obsidian plugin has been updated for Z7? Also, does zotfile now work for Z7 or is there an equivalent, either in zotero or in a new plugin? I tried to figure this out from the Zotero forum but couldn't reach a conclusion about what is likely to work. Am afraid to update Zotero until I know.
1. The Zotero/Obsidian integration by M. Meyers has been updated. This is the plugin I use with my template for imports. The Obsidian Citations plugin shows last update in Sept 22. 2. Zotfile is no longer under development, so I doubt it would work in Zotero 7. 3. You can run both versions. Zotero 6 and 7 both use the same database. This is one way of getting around the plugin issue, but it would probably be better to move on and find alternatives in the ecosystem that are more likely to be maintained.

EDIT: Plugin is updated and working now. PREVIOUS COMMENT: Aria no longer works in Zotero since the upgrade to Zotero 7. If you wish to use it , retain a version of Zotero 6.
It is resolve now. Right?
@@manouchk38 is it resolved yet?
@@eseninkafasiguzel at least there is a plugin for zotero 7. I've not tested it (I have zotero 6 here).
@@manouchk38 I have tested it and surprisingly it's not worth money at all. And also I would like to learn from someone who actually benefited from it
Nice video. However, I have two questions: 1) Does it insert references in the body of the document? I see notations like (ID83) or (ID290), but I can't find these IDs in the bibliography. How does this work? and 2) Does it work with ChatGPT-4 by default, or do I need to have a ChatGPT subscription first?
I have problems because when I enter the generated API it gives me an error that it does not find chatgpt 4
same here... :/ In previous comments there is that it only works with Zotero 6... But I hoped it is solved by now...
Thank you Ric!
My pleasure!
Great video. Thank you
Glad you liked it!
Very inspiring. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey mate love your vids. You were an inspiration to try Zotero, and it's so much nicer to use day-to-day than EndNote. I understand you are an AIB student. Jack from AIB tells me there is no AIB reference template for Zotero and only for EndNote. So, currently, I use both. Zotero is used for my day-to-day research, and EndNote is used for the referencing for AIB papers. Very frustrating I did find the Australia Harvard reference template for Zotero but Jack tell me AIB style is slightly different from Australia Harvard. Any chance you can help Jack to create a AIB style template for all of us?
I used the Harvard one all the way through. AIB hadn't updated to the latest Harvard and Melbourne Uni had. I used the Melbourne Polytechnic style while there. Hope that helps.
My sister went to australlia on a missions trip last summer with a group called teen missions. SO this is all interesting to hear about

This is really helpful, thanks. Can you clarify what paid service is needed from ChatGPT for ARIA integration?
Thank you Ric for the video, being new to obsiddian you mentioned a few things, you said save the created template in a templates folder, ok how do you reference the template a worked example would have been great just to finish off the steps. Many thanks
Fair question. Templates are discussed elsewhere, but essentially you have a folder where you store all your templates. This is identified in the Templates core Obsidian plugin. I then use Alt+T (Windows) to invoke a template in any note.
Can we take a document as output via GPT4ALL?
Can you provide a little more context?
Thank you for this, I have it all set up.
Excellent! Lots more videos here that can help.
Thanks a lot !
Wow this "matrix" kanban layout is genius. Thank you.
Thanks for this Ric!
No worries!
I'm new to Obsidian, so please bare with me! So do you have to put all of this code into a note every time you want to embed a video??
Not at all. Did you read the article? Essentially you create a template which you can call with a hotkey at any time you want to insert a video. I use Alt T which will pull up a list of all my templates to choose which one I want to insert. By hitting V on the keyboard it takes me to the ones beginning with that letter and I select Video and it inserts it. Then simply copy in the embed code from TH-cam or Vimeo. Hope this helps.
@@ricraftisau I did read the article, but as a new Obsidian user and with no code experience, a lot of it went over my head. I did learn after watching your video that templates were even a thing and went on to find some videos on how to use them. Your video helped me on my journey to solve the puzzle that is Obsidian, so than you for that!
I've been looking into organisational systems to get things clearer both mentally and with my digital files. This helped me lean towards something like Johnny Decimal where others didn't click as easily. I'm curious about how your folder structure is outside of Obsidian as this is something I need to work out so I have a global system. Thank you in advance!
I have set my hard disk up with the same file structure. That way I it is all consistent and whether the information I want is in Obsidian or on my drives, the numbers and folder names are consistent.
Muito obrigada!
Great video.- I like it that you Sharece how your system works. It’s always nice to see how other people do!
Is this legal?
Hi Ric, this is so helpful but I am encountering issues trying to import my reading notes when I have used the zotero ipad app to annotate. Do you have any wisdom on this please?
I haven't used the ipad app so I can't really comment. If the rest of the data is coming across though and not the notes, that seems a bit odd. You may be better off importing only the data and doing the annotation in Obsidian.
I use AudioPen every day to write lessons, blog articles, and email messages. The app continues to improve and the developer adds new features. Thanks for this video.
Great video. I still don’t get how you managed to center the table to the page. Any help? Thanks 🙏🏼
Thank you so much! Cool stuff!
Thank you for this guide, have a great day sir!
I have never worked with CSS, so I have no clue what to do with the CSS snippets you provide. 😀 Do you have a step by step guide on how and where to apply this in Obsidian?
The full article is linked in the shownotes. You will find all the information you need there. ricraftis.au/obsidian/how-to-use-colour-coded-kanban-boards-to-bring-laser-focus-to-your-productivity/
@@ricraftisau Thank you for the quick feedback, but this is more or less the same than in the video. 🙂 So I need the basics! How do I access CSS or snippets in Obsidian? Where do I implement what? Do I need to install some more plug-ins to be able to do this? Your other videos all show the basic steps how to get there including needed plug-ins or settings. This one just says „copy paste a snippet“. I hope this is a bit clearer. 😀
@@livestrong369 There is more detail on the CSS perhaps in the earlier videos and articles. Apart from that, if you want to learn about CSS, I would suggest you have a look at W3Schools. It's a massive subject and applies to every website you visit.
Thank you Ric!
Thanks for the nice review. You have many duplicated pdfs associated with your articles/research material, as is often the case. Two questions: do you know if importing 4 or 5 copies of a pdf into the ai causes it to 'overweight' the contents of those duplicated pdfs? and 2) is there (or why isn't there), a plug-in or built in way to remove or merge duplicate pdfs, just like one can merge duplicate articles?
You are correct about the duplicates. They are the result of the PDFs coming from the attachment to the article and a second one from another plugin. I have restructured my Zotero recently and remove duplicates on a regular basis. It seems it isn't possible to manage them like the Zotero duplicate articles feature. forums.zotero.org/discussion/74119/remove-duplicate-pdf-files
What a gigantic cliffhanger...
