Switching to APA Format Citations

[bosscillations]

Hi all,
Thanks for this fantastic resource for building an academic website! I'm pretty new at this so apologies if this is an easy question, but I'm having trouble switching the citations of publications listed on my website from MLA to APA format. It seems there was a way to do this by specifying the citation_style in params.toml, but I'm using the starter-hugo-academic template, which uses params.yaml. Adding in the citation_style here doesn't seem to do anything. Is there something more complex I need to do to change this?

Thanks much,
Ryan

Nothing has changed, you just have to translate from toml to yaml.

[publications]
  citation_style = “apa”

publications:
  citation_style: ‘apa’

As it turns out, the code defaults to the apa style. So if you don’t specify this parameter in your params.yaml file, you should get apa.
