Changing color of inline citations in a pdf output from RMarkdown

I am having troubles when changing the color of inline citations in a pdf output from RMarkdown. Let's start with the YAML:



---
title: MY TITLE
author: "Mario Modesto-Mata"
date: "20 September 2018"
output:
pdf_document:
highlight: espresso
number_sections: yes
toc: yes
toc_depth: 4
bibliography: references.bib
csl: ajpa.csl
---


As you can see, I have my bibliography specified (references.bib) and the citation style (ajpa.csl). I must say it works pretty nice.



However, I am writing a long manuscript and I would like inline citations to be colored to allow readers distinguish what is text and what are citations.



Before changing color



This is my example where you can see the inline citations.




Cada diente se forma en un momento concreto bajo una fuerte regulación
genética. Por lo tanto, presentan cada uno su propia trayectoria de
crecimiento, desarrollo, tasa de formación y momento de erupción, que
son relativamente independientes del resto de piezas dentales. Por
este motivo, cada especie posee un patrón de desarrollo dental
particular y bien definido en función de las trayectorias de
crecimiento concretas de cada diente o clase de dientes
[@BermudezdeCastrochicoGranDolina2002;
@SmithDentaldevelopmentevolution1991;
@SmithDentaldevelopmentmeasure1989;
@SmithPatternsdentaldevelopment1994]. El desarrollo dental es
altamente heredable y relativamente resistente a los procesos de
malnutrición y enfermedad, existiendo menos variación en su patrón de
desarrollo respecto a los parámetros de maduración esqueléticos
[@Lewisrelationshiptoothformation1960].




When I convert it into a PDF using RMarkdown, I get correct inline citations:
enter image description here



After changing color



I searched on this forum and found a potential solution, as you can read in the original question.



However, when I implement those tips, as seen in this code:

textcolor{blue}{[@Lewisrelationshiptoothformation1960]}.




I get this output:



enter image description here



As you can see, the bracked text has turned blue, but I lost the correct inline citations.



Question




  1. How can I change the color of the inline citations without losing the citations themselves? Maybe there is an option to add in the YAML (which would be fantastic) instead of customizing every single citation along the whole manuscript?


UPDATE



You can download a ZIP file with part of my Rmd file, ajpa.csl and references.bib.

  • Partially. I would like all the citations to be colored in blue. So in the example Hawking and Page 1963 would be in blue, not only the year. We are getting closer @jay.sf

  • I'm not sure that's even possible. rmarkdown has its limits, consider to use LaTeX instead, or try to get an answer on TeX-Stackexchange. Anyway, why do you want to do that at all? Do you really like to read such blueish papers: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.annals.2014.12.001? If you look at p. 145 of the quote from "Gursoy, Chi, & Dyer, 2009, 2010". Did you find it easily? What would you like that should happen if you click on the different years?
