When I use crossref-add-bibtex-entry it download the BibTeX entry but cannot download the associated pdf.
I get the following error (wrong-type-argument stringp ("/Users/doyley/Dropbox/Filing_Cabinet/B/refs/pdf/“))
I configured org-ref as follows
(setq org-ref-bibliography-notes '("/Users/doyley/Dropbox/Filing_Cabinet/B/refs/ref_notes.org")
org-ref-default-bibliography '("/Users/doyley/Dropbox/Filing_Cabinet/B/refs/ref.bib")
org-ref-pdf-directory '("/Users/doyley/Dropbox/Filing_Cabinet/B/refs/pdf/")
org-ref-notes-citation-link '("cite")
)
[ Caveat: I've never used org-ref ]
org-ref's 0383cc2 (support multiple pdf directories, 2016-06-10) updated
org-ref-pdf-directory to accept a list value, so your value is valid,
but...Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp ("/Users/doyley/Dropbox/Filing_Cabinet/B/refs/pdf/"))
file-name-as-directory(("/Users/doyley/Dropbox/Filing_Cabinet/B/refs/pdf/"))
doi-utils-get-bibtex-entry-pdf(nil)
... doi-utils-get-bibtex-entry-pdf wasn't updated for that (+cc the
author of that commit and John Kitchin).
It looks like org-ref-pdf-directory still supports a string, though, and
you only have one item, so you should be able to work around the issue
with
(setq org-ref-pdf-directory "/Users/doyley/Dropbox/Filing_Cabinet/B/refs/pdf/")
