• Mendeley Word Plugin doesn't work with the updated Microsoft Word for M1 MacBooks as of December 15th. I just installed the Microsoft Office Update and the plugin doesn't work. I already told the Mendeley Support team.
• Install Mendeley Citation Plugin for Microsoft Word. The main benefit of Mendeley is it can cite the references quickly. So, you don’t need to type references at the end of the paper or thesis manually. Other than that, the software provides a plugin for integration into Microsoft Word. But, the plugin is not automatically installed.

One of the great built-in features in Mendeley is without a doubt the citation plugin for your word processor of choice. We currently support most of popular word processors such as MS word (Mac and Windows), OpenOffice, Neo Office, and Libre Office. We’re continuously working to improve the efficiency and general user interface of this plugin because we feel it is an important component within Mendeley Desktop and your overall research workflow.

Download Mendeley Desktop for macOS. Download Mendeley Desktop for macOS. MacOS 10.10 (Yosemite), 10.11 (El Capitan), 10.12 (Sierra), 10.13. Citation Plugin. Mendeley has plug-ins for Word, LibreOffice and BibTeX. We cover thousands of citation styles. I also find 'How to add Mendeley plugin into word'. Hope the information could be helpful. Please note, since the web sites are not hosted by Microsoft, the links may change without notice. Microsoft does not guarantee the accuracy of them. Open Mendeley Desktop and click on Tools, Install MS Word Plugin. Adding Citations to a Word Document: (windows, see above for Mac) Open your Word document and click on the References tab in the ribbon. Notice that the; Insert Citation icon now has a Mendeley logo superimposed.

That being said, I’d like to touch on a small aspect that many Mendeley citation plugin users are probably unaware of. If you add multiple citations at the same time, the appropriate citation style is used for such situations. For example, if you were citing 3 articles and they were the 3rd, 4th and 5th citations added, they’d probably be added as follows 3-5 (if using a numeric inline citation style format like “Nature Genetics”.). However, if you went in to the document and wanted to add another reference in that bundle, it would show up as 3-5 6. That is not good.
Quick solution? Delete the citations and add all four together. Which would mean remembering which reference they were, selecting all four and adding them in again.

Better solution? Merge the citations! Just select the 3-5 and 6 citation and then go to your citation plugin options in your word processor and select Merge citations. The end result should be 3-6. No need to go track down the references again. Just select, merge. Done.

Microsoft Office 2016 on Mac

The Mendeley citation plugin now works with Microsoft Word 2016 for Mac (and Windows, but that worked already), so you can now, once again, easily generate citations and bibliographies.

You can install the Word plugin from the “Tools” menu in Mendeley Desktop. Once installed, you’ll need to restart Office and then find the citation controls in the “Add-Ins” tab of the ribbon toolbar in Microsoft Word.

Please bear with us on the aesthetics of the ribbon toolbar – we are waiting for Microsoft to make some changes to their ribbon implementation to allow us to achieve a design that looks like the rest of the ribbon, but this currently isn’t possible. We are told the changes may be a few months away.

In addition, we’ve fixed numerous general and plugin bug fixes, which we’ve listed below:
