BibLaTeX – How to cite with only year inside parenthesis?
(but only in some occasions – without changing how parencite works for the remaining citations)
I found some questions/answers but they either used natbib or were for different situations.
I thought about just trying to change the format of /citeyear but it doesn't create a link to the bibliography. Is it its normal behavior?
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[portuguese]{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[backend=biber,style=authoryear,dashed=false,backref=true,firstinits=true]{biblatex}
\renewcommand\nameyeardelim{\addcomma\addspace}
\DefineBibliographyStrings{portuguese}{%
url={Disponível em},
}
\DeclareFieldFormat{url}{\bibstring{url}\addcolon\space\url{#1}}
\DeclareFieldFormat{urldate}{\mkbibbrackets{#1}}
\DeclareFieldFormat{postnote}{#1}
\DeclareFieldFormat{multipostnote}{#1}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@book{Nunes,
author = {Mister X},
title = {Book Z english ensligh},
year = {2013},
location = {Lisboa, Portugal},
note = {Dissertação para obtenção do Grau de Mestre em Engenharia Informática e de Computadores. Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa},
}
\end{filecontents}
\begin{document}
Tal como Nunes no seu livro Z portuguese portuguese \citeyear{Nunes}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
I'd like to get the following:
Tal como Nunes no seu livro Z portuguese portuguese (2013)
(with the normal link to the bibliography)

You can use the starred version of
\cite
or\parencite
. Those commands are defined forauthoryear
- andauthortitle
-like styles and simply omit the name.If you are using the
natbib
compatibility mode, this function is overruled bynatbib
's behaviour to temporary override the maxnames function and print all authors in the starred versions. You will have to give the command a new name, the exact definition depends on the style, forauthoryear
it is
