Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records Citation Manager version 0.9.6 as active, updated 15y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.0.

Overview

About this plugin

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.

Shortcodes

  • [citation-count-total] outputs an integer indicating the total number of

citations to all content on the site

  • [citation-count] outputs an integer indicating the total number of

citations to the present page or post

  • [citation-dump] outputs a nested unordered list of page/post titles and

citations to them
