Creating modified citation text
Whether you are writing in LaTeX or not, you can choose a citation to show with a modified citation text. For example, instead of showing as (Einstein, 1905), you may want to show it as Einstein (1905).
You can modify the citation text using the citation tool, find a citation, and click "Change citation text", as shown below.
If writing in LaTeX, you can also do so by altering the \cite command as follows:
\citet{Einstein1905} produces Einstein (1905)
\citep{Einstein1905} produces (Einstein, 1905)
\citep[See e.g.][for a nice review]{Einstein1905} produces (See e.g. Einstein, 1905, for a nice review)
\citep[][p.22-23]{Einstein1905} produces (Einstein, 1905, p.22-23)
\citealt[see][on page 1]{Einstein1905} produces see Einstein, 1905, on page 1
\cite{Einstein1905,Einstein1922} produces (Einstein 1905, Einstein 1922)
For a full list of options, see the natbib package.
