About this extension

Generates a BibTeX entry for the currently opened page. The Add-on tries to extract author name, title and publishing year from the website. If mulitiple matches are found for the extracted values, a click on the currently used one will open a menu with options to choose from.
Version 1.0 introduces a template system but requires Firefox 48. (The default template is not plain BibTeX but BibLaTeX because the latter makes it easier to cite a webpage)

Release notes for 1.3

This update makes the context menus a bit nicer. When there is only one guess for a value, no context menu will be shown. Also the context menu does not contain duplicate entries now.

Also, the functionality of auto-generating a cite key was added. It is very rudimentary and just concatenates the last word of the best author guess, the year and the first word of the best title guess. IMPORTANT: To make this work in existing installations, however, one first has to edit the template manually beause the new field $cite_key$ had to be added to it. For example, the template that is used in new installations is:

@online{$cite_key$,
author = {$author$},
title = {$title$},
year = $year$,
url = {$url$},
urldate = {$urldate$}
}
