  1. Navigate to the URL /az-quickstart/settings/az-publication on your website. 
  2. Choose the preferred default citation style for publications on your site.

This setting will apply the selected citation style as the default for all publications added to your site, ensuring consistency and adherence to academic standards.

If you need to use a style not included with Quickstart by default:

  1. Navigate to /admin/config/az-quickstart/settings/az-publication/az_citation_style.
  2. Click '+Add Quickstart Citation Style'.
  3. Enter a descriptive label for the style.
  4. Prefix the machine name with your site prefix (Example: law_redbook).

  6. Check if the default CSL meets your needs. If not, select 'This style uses custom Citation Style Language'.
  7. Copy and modify the CSL from the repository as needed, or create a new one if you're familiar with CSL formatting.

Creating a new citation style is recommended over editing existing ones. However, if you need to override a citation style included with Quickstart:
