closedplugin available for displaying a list of publications?

Description
Via Keeping:
do you have a recommendation, or can you make some plugin available for displaying a list of publications retrieved from PubMed, Google Scholar, or ORCID? I'd like to the per-faculty publication lists at https://epibios.commons.gc.cuny.edu/research/. Here are a few candidates I noticed - it looks like I could make any one of them work for this purpose:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/scholar-publications-fetcher/ (Google Scholar)
https://wordpress.com/plugins/impactpubs (PubMed)
https://wordpress.org/plugins/linked-open-profiles/ (ORCID) - a little more work because I'd have to get all our faculty onboard with claiming and syncing their ORCID profile, but this would be good for them to do anyways
Thank you, CUNY Academic Commons is a fantastic service!
Sincerely,
Levi

- Status changed from New to Staged for Production Release
- Target version set to 2.6.6
This is a good idea.
PubMed seems somewhat narrow for our user base, and as the user reports, ORCID requires scholars to do a bit more work. So let's start with the Google Scholar integration. Interestingly, I recently built a tool for a different project to do Google Scholar scraping, and I ran into some issues, but after reading the codebase of the scholar-publications-fetcher plugin, I think it will handle them well.
I've added the plugin in https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/9dd3f8d8a98d49b6d4b770df58a3fb1385a63665 and it will be available after next Tuesday's maintenance release.

Levi reports trouble:
I finally got around to testing the new plugin, but am so far not managing to have it display publication - see https://epibios.commons.gc.cuny.edu/testpubs/. I'm attaching a screenshot showing that I have the Scholar Publication Fetcher plugin activated. Am I missing something?

Levi was using the wrong shortcode. I've already updated the page for him. Instructions can be found here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/scholar-publications-fetcher/#installation
The plugin's shortcode is: [schopufe_publications]; Levi was using [gs_publications].
Here are all the available parameters for the [schopufe_publications] shortcode if Levi wants to customize the display a bit more:
- user_id (string) : required - Google Scholar ID - count (int|'all') : optional - number of items to show (default 5) or 'all' for all - show_abstract (bool) : optional - 'true' to fetch and display abstracts - cache_hours (int) : optional - cache lifetime in hours (default 6) - order (asc|desc) : optional - display order; 'desc' (default) newest to oldest, 'asc' oldest to newest - max_pages (int) : optional - safety cap for pagination (default 20) - page_size (int) : optional - items per page (default 100)

He thanks you and also replies "FYI I got the wrong shortcode by going to the plugins page (screenshot below) and following the link to "visit plugin site" for Scholar Publications Fetcher, which takes you to https://valsze.de/2025/07/07/google-scholar-publications-fetcher-wordpress-plugin/. "
