How to add a new Citation Style just like AMA, etc

Hi everyone, the AMA citation style will be included in the 3.4 release of OJS which is due out some time in the next month or so, most likely. Until then if you want to add AMA you’ll need to add the ama.csl file to your own citation plugin and modify the plugin to make it available by editing the CitationStyleLanguagePlugin.inc.php file and adding it here:

github.com

pkp/citationStyleLanguage/blob/stable-3_3_0/CitationStyleLanguagePlugin.inc.php#L65


      
          	 * Get list of citation styles available
          	 *
          	 * @return array
          	 */
          	public function getCitationStyles() {
          
          
		if (!empty($this->_citationStyles)) {
          			return $this->_citationStyles;
          		}
          
          
		$defaults = array(
          			array(
          				'id' => 'acm-sig-proceedings',
          				'title' => __('plugins.generic.citationStyleLanguage.style.acm-sig-proceedings'),
          				'isEnabled' => true,
          			),
          			array(
          				'id' => 'acs-nano',
          				'title' => __('plugins.generic.citationStyleLanguage.style.acs-nano'),
          				'isEnabled' => true,
          			),
