Hi Mohammed!

I've been playing around with the 1.6.3 release and it is looking really good! It is working really well and with the new additions, it is becoming a real well-rounded plugin.

In the sidebar tab bibliography (tiddler: $:/plugins/kookma/refnotes/ui/bibtexlibrary) there is a small typo in the captions field. Further, there is a link to a Bibliography Table tiddler that isn't packaged in the plugin itself. Is that because it uses the dynamic tables from the shiraz plugin? Would it be possible to have a search function for this table as well? It might be more workable when handling a lot of references because of the pagination compared to the sidebar list.

There is also a process new BibTeX tiddlers button. In the docs, I read that it makes the title's lowercase and it adds a tag to the BibTeX tiddlers. I may be missing something, but it is not really clear to me what the purpose of that is. Other than easier organisation via tags.

I also tried it out on mobile and noticed that the pop-up on hover doesn't display the text, see screenshot. But maybe that is just a limitation of touchscreens?

Currently, the inline citation uses the in-context way of citation. So the names of the authors are outside the brackets. Will there be an option to have the citation with the names inside the brackets? For example: (A. Takhom, et al. 2019).

I saw that there are still many outstanding tasks, so while the plugin is already usable for me with the included APA style, I am looking forward to seeing how the plugin progresses. Hope this feedback is helpful to you!

I will make it optional, yes it needs Shiraz Plugin!

Well this can be further improved, but it adds tag bibtex-entry and makes title and bibtex-entry-type lower case! Nothing else!

Something is broken, I will check!

Right now the APA narrative style is supported, I will add parenthetical style!

Yes, but many of them are for long term improvement ;-)
The plugin is stable and works for many daily needs!


Thank you for your feedback
