Customised citations

Hello. Does anyone know if there is plugin that allows you to customise citations? My client needs The Australian Guide to Legal Citation 4th edition (AGLC4) to be available.

Hi @nathan.grice,

In OJS, you should be able to add and configure new citation styles. This can be done through the Citation Style Language plugin, which can be enabled and configured in the OJS plugin settings.

This post provides a bit of an overview of the process: How to add a new Citation Style just like AMA, etc - #4 by jicai.he

Essentially, you’ll need to add the aglc4.csl file to your own citation plugin

  • Place the AGLC4 CSL file in the citation styles directory of your OJS installation (usually under plugins/generic/citationStyleLanguage/citation-styles).

  • modify the plugin to make it available by editing the CitationStyleLanguagePlugin.inc.php file (Illustrated in the aforementioned linked post).

If you’d like, you may want to make a request that it be added to the default lists of Citation styles, but putting a request here: Pull requests · pkp/citationStyleLanguage · GitHub (if you’re comfortable working with Github - and you can provide the csl file.
