Description
Category: 3rd Party Integrations

The Citations plugin is a game-changer for Obsidian users who work with academic references. With this plugin, you can seamlessly integrate your bibliography with Obsidian's editing experience. The plugin supports BibTeX/BibLaTeX and CSL-JSON formats, making it compatible with popular reference managers like Zotero. Once set up, the plugin offers four convenient features: creating literature notes, inserting references, inserting content, and inserting citations. You can even customize the title and content templates to suit your needs. This plugin is a must-have for anyone who wants to stay organized and focused while working on research papers or articles.

Changelog

After far too long a delay, I'm releasing a new version with some critical bugfixes, largely thanks to the excellent developer community of Obsidian / Obsidian Citation Plugin.

Bugfixes:

  • Explicitly mark desktop-only support for now (#105 )
  • Fix off-by-one year citations (#142 , #40) -- thanks @valmaev !
  • Add titleShort template variable (#148 ) -- thanks @valmaev !
  • Fix link insertion bug: newer versions of CodeMirror moved the cursor to the start of the citation rather than the end (#138) -- thanks @Klemet !
