Letter after year #57

Closed austinj closed 1 month ago

Hi, thanks for the excellent package. Is there a way to suppress the letter after the year when there are multiple entries published in the same year? For instance: going from Lastname, Firstname M. (2022b). Article name, etc.to Lastname, Firstname M. (2022). Article name, etc. when there are multiple entries from 2022.

No option or somesuch. You'd need the following redefinition:

\renewbibmacro*{bpl:date:makedate}{%
    \printtext{%
        \iffieldundef{year}{%
            \iffieldundef{pubstate}%
                {}
                {\printfield{pubstate}}%
          }{\printdate}%
    }%
}

Thank you very much. For anyone looking for this in the future, I'm using APA style with \newcommand*\publistbasestyle{apa}, so I also had to modify the apa.bbx file to remove letters after years. Those changes to apa.bbx are:

The code below

\newbibmacro*{labelyear+extradate}{% \iffieldundef{labelyear} {\iffieldundef{origyear} {} {\printtext[apadate]{\printorigdate}}}% {\printtext[apadate]{\printlabeldateextra}}}

Changes to

\newbibmacro*{labelyear+extradate}{% \iffieldundef{labelyear} {\iffieldundef{origyear} {} {\printtext[apadate]{\printorigdate}}}% {\printtext[apadate]{\printlabeldate}}}

And these two lines are deleted
