Amend in-text citation

Post by goodkeys »

Hey

I'm using a custom citation style for the bibliography. Since i want author-year citation in-text i'm using natbib. This results in such cites: Smith and Lee 2000, 215. I'd like it to be like this: Smith/Lee 200: 215. Is there a way how this can be achieved?
As a second question: can LyX somehow be configured thus in-text citations automatically are set in footnotes?

Hi,

instead of natbib, you could try using jurabib. Regarding the second issue, the package documentation describes how to achieve citations as footnotes.

Thanks gmedina. The second problem is solved, i now get my citations in footnotes. But the jurabib-package didn't bring me the designated citationstyle. Any other suggestions how i could accomplish the specified outcome?

By inserting the following code in the preample i have now the desired punkctation for the in-text citation:

Code: Select all

\RequirePackage{natbib}
\bibpunct[: ]{(}{)}{}{}{ }{} 
But the problem of wanting to replace the "and" between authors with a backslash still persists. Any help on that?
