LaTeX forum ⇒ BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ biblatex missing year

[stegzzz]

Hi,I have the latex code below. When I compile using TeXstudio the year information is missing from the in-text citation and reference list, as shown in the attached pdf. Any suggestions for what I can do to fix this?

Thanks!

}
\end{filecontents}
