LaTeX forum ⇒ Theses, Books, Title pages ⇒ No prenote with \cite command possible - Masters/Doctoral Thesis

[Latex_wood]

Hi folks,

I am now writing my Bachelor-Thesis with this awsome Template. My problem now is that I want a prenote when I cite. Unfortunantly it wont work like that. When I use this

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse] [Download] ({untitled.tex})

\cite[pre][after]{key}

I get this output

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse] [Download] ({untitled.tex})

[?, pre]after]key

For my work I change this:

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse] [Download] ({untitled.tex})

%\printbibliography[heading=bibintoc]
\bibliographystyle{IEEEtran}
\bibliography{IEEEabrv,Literatur.bib}

What can I do?

regards,
Karl

I don't know how much the two styles differ, but what about the style of the biblatex-ieee package? In this case, the prenote of the \cite command should be available.

Sorry I forgot to mention that I don't use the biblatex package. In the beginning I've got some problems that's why I switch to this method.

If you don't explain the problems, no one can tell you whether they can be solved. But that could be a reason to start a new topic.
