Description
Allows for tracking and display of external citations to WordPress content.
While trackbacks and pingbacks are fine for displaying references from other
websites which support them, what do you do when, say, a print newspaper,
book or magazine makes reference to your content? Citation Manager provides
a solution.
Long Description
At a Glance
- Adds a form to post and page screens to manage external citations
- Displays an unordered list of citations per post/page, or nothing if there
are no citations - Provides shortcodes for summarizing citation data
Usage
- On the page/post edit screen, press „Add citation“.
- Fill in at least the Publication or Title fields and save/update.
- On pages/posts with citations, Citation Manager will output them after the
content. - If a URL element is provided, it will be applied to the Title if present or
to the Publication if not. - Press „Delete citation“ and save/update to remove a citation.
- Use Settings->Citation Manager to alter the text/HTML to come before and
after the citation list. - You can also configure the presence of the
target="_blank"
attribute in
links to external sites when citations are listed, causing those links to
open in a new browser window.
