Feature Request: {{lastname}} - author last name as setting #144

Open francescoragazzi opened 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I would like to format my imported zotero references as "lastname date - title" (for ex. "Airoldi 2021 - Machine Habitus"). It makes much sense because then all my references folder is sorted alphabetically by last name. There is currently no way to select only the last name as a setting.

Describe the solution you'd like I would very much like to be able to choose something like {{lastname}} as a setting;

Describe alternatives you've considered Currently I import the full name then remove the first name manually

This comment provides a workaround: https://github.com/hans/obsidian-citation-plugin/issues/189#issuecomment-1325422724

{{#each entry.author}}{{this.family}}{{#unless @last}}, {{/unless}} {{/each}}
