<p>This plugin allows references and citations in your posts. It’s only a beta version, so if you find issues or if you think it lacks some features, please contact me.</p>
<p>To use it, simply add your reference using a shortcode you can choose (‘jref’ by default), and a few attributes (always use lowercase):</p>
<ul>
<li>title (mandatory)</li>
<li>author</li>
<li>date</li>
<li>url</li>
<li>editor</li>
<li>page</li>
<li>lang</li>
<li>readon</li>
</ul>
<p>There are no specific controls on the content of those attributes, you may add any text you want. Only ‘title’ is mandatory. All attributes roles are easy to understand; ‘page’ is for a book (but can be used for any content), ‘readon’ is the date you last consult the reference.</p>
<p>Again, in this first release, there’s no specific control or action triggered by attribute’s content (like verifying the format, or linking to an archive site). Maybe in a future release…</p>
<p>A list of all references will be added at the end of the post.</p>
<p>Here are some examples:</p>
<ul>
<li>[jref]url=http://geba.fr|date=janv 2017|title=The Title.|author=Janiko|lang=FR|editor=geba.fr|page=p.5[/jref]</li>
<li>[jref name=’numref’]url=http://geba.fr|date=janv 2017|title=The Title.|author=Janiko|lang=FR|editor=geba.fr|page=p.5[/jref]</li>
<li>[jref name=’numref’ /]</li>
</ul>
<p>You can optionnaly add a name to the citation, so you can reuse it in your post. Important note: the displayed attributes will be the attributes of the FIRST reference with that name. Any other attribute will be ignored.</p>

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.
