footnotes, endnotes or in-text citation,

WIKINDX 3.8 released.
WIKINDX is a free single or multi-user research environment storing searchable bibliographies, notes and citations and integrated with a WYSIWYG word processor for the authoring of publication-ready articles automatically formatted to chosen citation styles.
WIKINDX v3.8 has the following CHANGELOG:
NB
1/ If you have an existing WIKINDX, this release UPGRADES the database structure. BACKUP YOUR DATABASE FIRST (and read INSTALL and UPDATEWIKINDX prior to running WIKINDX for the first time).
2/ Because of amendments to the bibliographic/citation templating system (the conference_paper resource type no longer has the 'publicationYear' field but has conference fields instead and web_article has additional fields); administrators who have created their own style should, after installing v3.8, open, edit (with changes if necessary) and save their styles in the WIKINDX style editor before using them.
Focus: Major feature enhancements and bug fixes.
FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS:
1/ Added the COinS subset of OpenUrl for using with Zotero. When browsing a list or viewing a single resource and using a COinS-compatible web browser (such as later versions of Firefox and Navigator), the resources shown may be imported into Zotero. NB -- OpenUrl has a very limited set of resources types; consequently, the resource type may change from WIKINDX to Zotero.
2/ Added `publicationDay` and `publicationMonth` fields to the resourceType 'web_article' so that this type may be used for online newspaper and magazine articles.
3/ In bibliographic styles, 'URL' is now a valid field for all resource types.
4/ When importing or pasting bibTeX files, the user may now specify the title/subtitle separator from a range of options.
5/ In My Wikindx, enhanced the options for email notification of added/edited resources so that it is now possible to request a digest.
BUG FIXES:
1/ The input/edit form for the resource type 'conference_paper' has been amended to reflect its unpublished status and the conference details.
2/ Fixed a NULL write bug when used on some newer MySQL versions.
3/ When importing a large bibTeX file in chunks, duplicate creators were sometimes added to the database. This has been fixed.
4/ Fixed a bug where journal articles in Endnote v7 XML files were not imported.
5/ When displaying proceedings_articles, the publisher ID from the database was also shown. This has been fixed.

WIKINDX 3.7 released.
WIKINDX is a free single or multi-user research environment storing searchable bibliographies, notes and citations and integrated with a WYSIWYG word processor for the authoring of publication-ready articles automatically formatted to chosen citation styles.
WIKINDX v3.7 has the following CHANGELOG:
NB
1/ If you have an existing WIKINDX, this release UPGRADES the database structure. BACKUP YOUR DATABASE FIRST (and read INSTALL and UPDATEWIKINDX prior to running WIKINDX for the first time).
Focus: Feature enhancements and minor bug fixes.
FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS:
1/ Added hooks for integrating some aspects of WIKINDX into a Content Management System (CMS). See README_CMS.
2/ When viewing lists of resources, display a hyperlink to a pop-up window to generate a CMS 'replacement tag' for each resource -- the display includes the WIKINDX ID of the resource. For those who have created their own templates, the new CSS class 'cssLink' controls the visual display. The option to display the icon may be set in user preferences (off by default).
3/ Added $WIKINDX_MEMORY_LIMIT to config.php. WIKINDX usually runs with the standard PHP memory_limit of 8MB. With some PHP configurations, however, this is not enough -- a mysterious blank page is often the result. If you are unable to update php.ini's memory_limit yourself, $WIKINDX_MEMORY_LIMIT may be set (an integer followed by 'M'). Despite the PHP manual stating that this may not be set outside of php.ini, it has been reported on the WIKINDX sourceforge forum that it does work in some cases. It is not, however, guaranteed to work and editing php.ini is the preferred method.
4/ Added a Digital Object Identifier (http://doi.org) field to resources.
5/ Improved the file downloading abilities for large attachments.
6/ Added $WIKINDX_RSS_ALLOW to config.php to control RSS access. The default is TRUE.
7/ When viewing lists of resources, display an icon to view the bibtex version of each resource. For those who have created their own templates, there is a new icon to add: wikindx3/templates/xxxx/icons/bibtex.gif. The option to display the icon may be set in user preferences (off by default).
8/ When viewing a bibliographic list ordered by either 'creator' or 'title', WIKINDX Preferences may be set to display alphabetic links instead of the numerical paging links.
8/ The colours and font sizes used in tag clouds (for example, browsing keywords from the Resource menu) may now be fine-tuned through a combination of CSS classes and variables set in config.php.
9/ Added an editor field to both web_site and web_article resource types.
10/ Added the resource types web_encyclopedia and web_encyclopedia_article.
11/ For certain types of resources, the resource may be tagged as peer reviewed.
BUG FIXES:
1/ Fixed a minor bug in the display of attachments following Quick Search and Select where attachments only are to be displayed.
2/ Changed the checking of input for UTF-8 compliance as per bug: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1743210&group_id=94435&atid=607910
3/ Fixed a bug in the authorization code giving access to RSS users under some circumstances as per bug:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1743202&group_id=94435&atid=607910
4/ When importing the pages fields of bibTex or Endnote, values such as '146,49' or '1345-59' are now correctly converted to pp.146-149 and pp. 1345-1359.
5/ Fixed a javascript bug causing errors in the SUWP when using either the Simple or Green Marble templates.
