WordPress LogoThe CiteIt.net WordPress plugin is the easiest way to use the CiteIt.net Web Citation Service, but you must have a host that allows you to install plugins: The plugin will:

  1. Add the CiteIt.net client library to your templates
  2. Add two buttons to your editor, so you can attach a URL to your quotes when making a citation.



(How to Install the WordPress plugin)

Why isn’t this Plugin in the WordPress Directory?

The plugin has not been uploaded to the WordPress Plugins directory yet because it is still alpha software and I don’t want to get a bunch of negative reviews from people who are expecting something more polished.

Volunteer Wanted: Gutenberg Plugin

I’m looking for a volunteer to convert this plugin to Gutenberg.  It currently uses the Classic Editor (TinyMCE).
