Thank you Ihor. I've created a patch for oc-bibtex.el similar to the natbib example. Please let me know if anything needs to be tweaked. Thanks, -- Thomas Ingram https://taingram.org/

To render a bibliography bibtex requires a "\bibliographystyle{}" to be set, omitting a style will create latex documents that fail to compile. This variable provides a fallback bibliography style for when none is provided in the #+bibliography options. --- lisp/oc-bibtex.el | 15 ++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/lisp/oc-bibtex.el b/lisp/oc-bibtex.el index 1d44b10d0..ba6079a8b 100644 --- a/lisp/oc-bibtex.el +++ b/lisp/oc-bibtex.el @@ -45,13 +45,26 @@ (declare-function org-export-data "ox" (data info)) +(defcustom org-cite-bibtex-bibliography-style 'plain + "Default BibTeX bibliography style." + :group 'org-cite + :package-version '(Org .
