Plugin Description
Books & Papers plugin provides you with simple tools to manage your lists of publications (like journal articles, books, scientific papers, conference proceedings, et cetera) and related authors.
You can use the plugin to display your bibliography using a flexible shortcode placed anywhere on the pages of your site.
The plugin contains a constructor which allows you to immitate any citation style.
Publication data can be filled manually as well as imported using DOI or BibTeX database.
Publications
The plugin distincs three types of publications:
* Article – mostly refers to journal articles;
* Conference – associated with conference proceedings like bibliography;
* Book – seperately published book or some chapters of one.
Each type has a few distinctive fields which can be then displayed on the list.
Beside this, you can further distinguish selected publications by applying a custom style characteristic.
Authors
If you have a noticible number of publications of one author, you can create database record for this person and assign an identifier, which will later allow you to display only the publications associated with the author by typing that identifier in the shortcode.
Also there’s an additional functionally that provides you with ability to create links to the author’s exclusive pages replacing the name of mentioned author.

* Set database prefix for tables that store author and publication data.
* Customize the publication list view.
* Customize citation style.
* Create custom style characteristics.

Usage
Let suppose, you’ve added an author named John Doe with johndoe identifier.
There are 10 Article records, 3 Book records and 8 Conference records are related with John Doe. One Article is marked as preprint.
The following shortcodes are now accessible:
* [publications auth=johndoe subj=articles prep=all] will show all 10 Articles including preprint.
* [publications auth=johndoe subj=articles prep=only] will show only 1 record (preprint).
* [publications auth=johndoe subj=articles prep=ex] will show 9 Articles without preprint.
* [publications auth=johndoe subj=books] will show 3 books.
* [publications auth=johndoe subj=conferences] will show 8 conference records.
* [publications auth=all subj=all year=2018] will show all publication records of year 2018.
* [publications auth=all subj=all tag=sample] will show all publication records that have the ‘sample’ tag.
Settings menu provides such fields for customization:
* Headers for articles, conferences and books sections.
* Substitution list for flexible records output format. For example, command
[authors] [title], [journal] {{Vol. [volume]}} [pages] ([year]) will result in a list of
authors, italic title of the article, journal title, bold volume number, pages number and article year in parentheses.
Note, that {{…}} syntax means that this part of record will not be displayed if [volume] is not provided.
