This is a simple WordPress Plugin which takes the content and scans it for links and puts them at the end of a page in a box. And this looks like this.

Installation

• Download the ZIP File and upload it via your backend in WordPress
• Upload the citation-box folder to /wp-content/plugins/ directory

In more detail

This plugin uses the_content filter and goes through the DOM Tree to look for <a> tags (exceptions are: images and WordPress more-link). The link is extracted form the content and a number is added after the former link. The link itself will be added to a list at the end of each site.

In the settings you can decide where this box is displayed. The first option will add a box at each post if the single post is viewed. The second is for pages and Home is referring to the main page where you can browser your articles. In addition, it is possible to choose own colors to fit perfectly to your theme.

BTW: If no links are found in a post / page also no Citation Box is shown.
