I need my footnotes and bibliography entries look a certain way.
I am almost there but I have a problem with how the editor of an edited book / incollection looks like. Currently, it looks like this in the footnote:
Brian Smith, ‘How to do it’ in Big Book of Knowledge, ed. by Tony Riley (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2012), pp. 12–34.
and this in the bibliography:
Smith, Brian, ‘How to do it’ in Big Book of Knowledge, ed. by Tony Riley (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2012), pp. 12–34.
What I need it to read is:
Smith, Brian, ‘How to do it’ in Tony Riley (ed.), Big Book of Knowledge (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2012), pp. 12–34.
So how do I adapt the verbose-style that it reads "… Tony Riley (ed.)" instead of "ed. by Tony Riley"?
Additionally, that the editor comes after "in", i.e. before the title of the book. ("in Tony Riley (ed.), The Big Book of Knowledge" instead of "in The Big Book of Knowledge, ed. by Tony Riley")?
PS: This is my little example:
\documentclass[paper=a4,fontsize=12pt]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@incollection{Smith2012,
Address = {Oxford},
Author = {Brian Smith},
Booktitle = {Big Book of Knowledge},
Editor = {Tony Riley},
Pages = {12-34},
Publisher = {Oxford University Press},
Title = {How to do it},
Year = {2012}}
\end{filecontents}
\usepackage[style=verbose-trad3,
natbib=true,
sortcites=true,
block=space,
isbn=false,
url=false,
doi=false,

dateabbrev=false,

\usepackage[applemac]{inputenc}

\usepackage[style=english,english=british]{csquotes}

\printlist{publisher}%
\setunit*{\addcomma\space}%
\usebibmacro{date}%
}
\newunit}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\begin{document}
This is an example sentence.\cite{Smith2012}
\printbibliography
\end{document}

First, compiling your document I get an error:
You should move
backend=biber, bibencoding=utf8,
to the package options.To swap the appearance of editor and booktitle, you have to alter the definitions of
incollection
,inbook
, etc. This shouldn't be too hard, you'll find them in the filebiblatex.def
.Then you need to redefine the bibmacro
byeditor+others
to get something like "John Doe (ed.)". The following code, redefining bibmacrobyeditor+others
, works for your example, though you might run in some problems with other editortypes:
