Thank you John. I tried to C-c C-e. I was reminded that org-ref-cite-natmove's function definition is void.

I also don't have functions that start with org-ref-export. I suspect that I didn't load a file or package.

Bruce and András, I upgraded org-mode on my system to 9.5. org-cite works after I added

(require 'oc)

Your examples work. I also noticed that I didn't need the following line:

 #+cite_export: csl

you are still not getting the directions. You don't export with C-c Ce oo here. You run that src block by putting your cursor in it and typing C-c C-c to run it.

For org-ref, you have to use a preprocessing hook to replace the cite links with the csl derived links before the export is done. That is what the src block does. It temporarily defines org-export-before-parsing-hook to run those three hook functions before making an odt file.

Alternatively you can do C-c C-e ro which will use the org-ref exporter that at least runs the  org-ref csl preprocessor.

Thank you John. I'm not sure why it does not work. Below is the minimal example I created, using your example. I ran C-e o o to export to ODT. The resulted ODT file didn't have the reference.

That code does not belong in your .emacs file. It should be in an emacs-lisp block in your org-file like it is in the example. You should run it from the org file.

Thank you all for the responses. I have to upgrade from orgmode 9.4.4 to 9.5 first, to try out org-cite.


(let ((org-export-before-parsing-hook '(org-ref-cite-natmove ;; do this first
org-ref-csl-preprocess-buffer
org-ref-refproc)))
  (org-open-file (org-odt-export-to-odt) 'system))

I tried to eval-region, after selecting these codes. I got the complain that org-ref-cite-natmove's function definition is void.

Do I need to install or require something other than cite-ref?

If you are trying to use org-ref for this see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRR-5NSpKyE and this example: https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref/blob/master/examples/basic-csl.org#opendocument. You need to use a preprocessing hook (org-ref-csl-preprocess-buffer) with org-ref to get the citations and bibliography .

I have been using org-ref and biblatex. They export well to PDF, through LaTeX. I am able to export to ODT as well. However, I'm not able to have the bibliography or the references in the produced ODT.

I searched online and found this tutorial: https://kjambunathan.github.io/org-mode-ox-odt/Bibliography-and-Citations-in-ODT-export.html. However, when following through the tutorial, I wasn't able to find ox-jabref.

Thinking about the new org-cite, which is orgmode's native citation solution, I'm wondering if it would be easier to use org-cite within orgmode and export to ODT? A small example with configuration suggestion will be highly appreciated!
