Question: Q: Mendeley plugin for Pages for Mac. Trying to drop Word for Pages for Mac and one of the biggest obstacles is the lack of integration from Mendeley to Pages. There doesn't seem to be any plugin. But is there any workaround to integrate references from Mendeley onto Pages? Dragging and Dropping simply puts in the whole reference so. Mendeley word plug in and mac with Catalina Hello all, i know there are numerous threads relating to the issue that word plugin is having with mac Catalina. I have deleted Mendeley as per the various suggestions and re-installed it all as versnio 1.19.5.
Prior to inserting citations, check for duplicate references in your library (see 'Removing Duplicates' for instructions).
Open your Word document. Place your cursor where you would like to insert the citation.
- Windows: Select the References tab, then choose Insert Citation from the Mendeley Cite-O-Matic panel.
- Mac: Select the scroll icon, then Mendeley > Insert or Edit Citation. Alternatively, select View > Toolbars > Mendeley Toolbar. The floating Mendeley tool bar will appear; select Insert or Edit Citation from this toolbar.
Insert citation in Microsoft Word for Windows
In the box that appears, enter text (author's last name, year, title, keyword, etc.) to search for references in your library. Select a reference, then either search for additional references or click OK.
You can also search for references from within your Mendeley library by clicking Go to Mendeley. In Mendeley Desktop, highlight the references that you wish to insert. To highlight multiple references, hold down the Ctrl or Command keys while you click on references.
Once you have selected your references, click the Cite button (Windows) (Mac) in the toolbar along the top. The selected references will be inserted into your document.
Mendeley citation editor
One of the great built-in features in Mendeley is without a doubt the citation plugin for your word processor of choice. We currently support most of popular word processors such as MS word (Mac and Windows), OpenOffice, Neo Office, and Libre Office. We’re continuously working to improve the efficiency and general user interface of this plugin because we feel it is an important component within Mendeley Desktop and your overall research workflow.
That being said, I’d like to touch on a small aspect that many Mendeley citation plugin users are probably unaware of. If you add multiple citations at the same time, the appropriate citation style is used for such situations. For example, if you were citing 3 articles and they were the 3rd, 4th and 5th citations added, they’d probably be added as follows 3-5 (if using a numeric inline citation style format like “Nature Genetics”.). However, if you went in to the document and wanted to add another reference in that bundle, it would show up as 3-5 6. That is not good.
Quick solution? Delete the citations and add all four together. Which would mean remembering which reference they were, selecting all four and adding them in again.
Better solution? Merge the citations! Just select the 3-5 and 6 citation and then go to your citation plugin options in your word processor and select Merge citations. The end result should be 3-6. No need to go track down the references again. Just select, merge. Done.
