Affiliation for single author

[lgatto]

Could you clarify how to define an affiliation for a single author html_document2. I tried

author: my name
affiliation: my affiliation

but the latter is ignored.

I also tried

author:
  - name: my name
  - affiliation: my affiliation

but then it print my name and NULL.

author:
  - name: my name
    affiliation: my affiliation

fails when building the package.

Hi Laurent, the proper syntax for defining author affiliations is the last one. It's supposed to work for both pdf_document2 and html_document2. I've just checked that the following document renders fine with BiocStyle v2.3.28. Could you maybe clarify what is the exact error you get?

---
title: Title
author:
- name: Author
  affiliation: Affiliation
output:
  BiocStyle::html_document2
---

Sorry, it must have been something else that generated the error yesterday. It now works as expected. Thank you for the great work!

Hi Aoles,

Following Laurent's question, is it possible to remove the superscript 1 from this single author, single affiliation situation? When only one affiliation is included, this symbol 1 seems unnecessary.
