Feature request: allow different citation styles
This is a feature that has been requested and I'm trying to gauge it's importance to other users. Please vote it up or down to let me know.
The idea would be to allow different styles such as APA the way they are supported by bibtex.

This would be a great feature!
I would like to give this request a little push. It would be great, if you could add a support for different citation-styles.
Best regards

We've just added another style customization option: "commas". When present, replaces semicolons with commas, and "and" with "&", e.g.,
instead of
Support for IEEE style will be appreciated as well :)
Looking at the style as described in https://www.bath.ac.uk/publications/library-guides-to-citing-referencing/attachments/ieee-style-guide.pdf:
I think if you set "authorFirst" in BibBase you can already get very close to IEEE style. You might even be able to make all the remaining changes with CSS (make title not bold but italic, add quotation marks before and after the title).
