 * Hello.
 * I wanted to know if there is some way to indicate a specific reference to use
   format style none. Like [ref format_style=”none”]No style[/ref]. Also, I would
   like to have an attribute not to show the sup number on the text for that specific
   format style none reference.
 * Thanks.
 * PS: Awesome plugin!

 * Yes, it would be great if there were an attribute that supported APA style or
   another style of reference.

 * With appropriate sidenote.
