Citations


Excellent plugin and fairly easy to use. This improves my citations and means I don't have to simply write HTML code in a custom block to get them working.

<p>Simple Attribution is just that… simple! It adds a meta box on post pages<br />
which allows bloggers to specify the name and URL of the site a sourced article<br />
originated from. Assuming both these fields are filled out, it appends the<br />
attribution link to the bottom of the post.</p>
<p>Simple Attribution allows links to be generated in both text and image form,<br />
allowing you to customize it to the feel of your website. Natively, it includes<br />
5 icons which can be used to identify the attribution link instead of the<br />
standard caption (which is editable through the options panel), and custom<br />
icons can be used as well.</p>
<p>Don’t like where we put the link? You have the option to disable<br />
auto-attribution and put the link wherever you want it to display simply by<br />
adding <?php echo display_attribution(); ?> to your template!</p>


Simple Attribution

I used it on newly installed wordpress 5.8 with default theme.
The problem is that, it didn't save the attribution title and url and also didn't show the links at bottom of the post.

I wish it work on new version. If it has git page, I can resolve it.

Thanks.

Didn't work on standard wordpress 5.8

A simple plugin to allow bloggers to add attribution to sourced posts.
