Blockquote Cite

Overview

Blockquote Cite allows you to add easily cite references when using the blockquote tag. To add a reference, simply use the cite element and then enter the URL of site the content was quoted from. If a logo is available for that site, it will be displayed. Otherwise a text link will be used.

Compatibility

• 2.1.*
• 2.0.*
• 1.5.*
• In theory, it should work with 1.2.*, but it has not been tested.

Installation

Download the file and put it in your plugins directory. Activate it. If you want to use logos, download them from http://www.andrewferguson.net/wp-content/plugins/afdn_blockquote/ and put them into a folder called fergcorp_blockquote in your plugins directory.

Example
Here are two examples:

When an image is found:
<blockquote cite="http://www.cnn.com/TECH/space/">Some text from a science and space article on CNN.com</blockquote>
…goes to…

Some text from a science and space article on CNN.com

When no image is found:
<blockquote cite="http://www.example.com/">Some text from the example.com page</blockquote>
…goes to..

Some text from the example.com page

   Is it possible to use this in a standard wordpress blog? (Ie. not a blog using wordpress tools, but a blog — like mine — which is located in the wordpress directory.)

   @Kjetil Kringlebotten:

   Unfortunately, no. You’ll have to contact WordPress to petition them to add it: http://faq.wordpress.com/2005/10/27/can-i-upload-my-own-plugins/
