The PubMed import widget facilitates adding articles to a website.
To import articles:
Go to Dashboard > PubMed widget
Search by entering the article PMID, keywords, or title
Select the article you want to add from the returned entries
Click publish
Check the publications page for added articles
To update a publication, click the article title then click edit. Publications are edited like a basic WordPress Post.
Troubleshooting
PubMed article doesn’t show after posting
Check that the article hasn’t previously been added. If the article exists, the import will fail. Be sure to delete the duplicate article. To delete, click the publication and click “trash.” Go to “trash”
to permanently delete the entry.
All the field entries are blank. How do I auto import?
Be sure to use the Dashboard widget. If all fields are blank, the likely cause is the Publications “add new” button was used. Use the PubMed widget located on the Dashboard to auto import.
