Theses, Books, Title pages ⇒ Masters/doctoral thesis bibliography style

[Michelle]

Hi all,

I'm using the template: https://www.latextemplates.com/template ... ral-thesis
I would like to add my references, but I'm not using a .bib file. I use a tex file that starts with:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand
{\refbane}
{References}
\addcontentsline
{toc}
{section}
{References}
\begin{thebibliography}{99}

I start every reference with \bibitem{name} and refer to them in my text with \cite{name}. With this template however, the references in de text don't have the number that is used in the reference tex file but the key word I call 'name' is displayed when I refer to a reference. I tried changing the bibliography style to acm and abbrv, but I get the error that these styles can not be found. Does anyone know how I can change the style?

Also instead of 'References' the reference chapter gets the title 'Bibliography'. Is there a way to change it to References in this template?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Michelle
