Test Yourself
You will need an administrator account on an EPrints repository to do these exercises. http://demoprints.eprints.org/ may be a useful resource, but your own sandbox repository may be better.
- Modify the default citation style to include the text 'We present for your consideration:' at the start of the citation.
- Make sure the title doesn't show for items of type 'article'
- Render the contents of the abstract at the end of the default citation style, in red text.
- Modify the abstract page to include the text 'Click on an icon below to download a document' just above the documents if there are any.
