Second solution
Edited again, so most multicite commands work.
Edited so \footcite
now works.
A reasonably effective solution that preserves many of biblatex
's featuers is provided by adjusting the way the year gets printed in citations. This can be done by redifining the commands associated to cite:year
and cite:extrayear
. This has the advantage of preserving the ibidem feature.
The code below includes a sample bibliography and then the main file with the redefined citation code.
\begin{filecontents}{test.bib}
@Article{Test,
author = {Author, A. N.},
title = {Article title},
year = 2005,
pages = {10-20},
journal = {Jour.},
vol = {100}
}
@Article{Test2,
author = {Author, A. N.},
title = {Second article},
year = 2005,
pages = {10-20},
journal = {Jour.},
vol = {100}
}
@Article{Test3,
author = {Author, A. B.},
title = {Third article},
year = 2005,
pages = {10-20},
journal = {Jour.},
vol = {100}
}
@Article{Test4,
author = {Author, A. N.},
title = {Fourth article},
year = 2007,
pages = {10-20},
journal = {Jour.},
vol = {100}
}
\end{filecontents}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[style=authoryear-icomp,autocite=plain]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{test.bib}
\renewbibmacro*{cite:labelyear+extrayear}{%
\iffieldundef{labelyear}

{\iftoggle{blx@footnote}
{\printtext[bibhyperref]{%
\printfield{labelyear}%
\printfield{extrayear}}}
{\footnote{\printtext[bibhyperref]{%

\printfield{extrayear}}}}}}
\renewbibmacro*{cite:extrayear}{%
\iffieldundef{extrayear}
{}
{\iftoggle{blx@footnote}
{\printtext[bibhyperref]{\printfield{extrayear}}}%
{\footnote{\printtext[bibhyperref]{%

\printfield{extrayear}}}}}}
\renewcommand{\compcitedelim}{\space}
\begin{document}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\autocite{Test} and
\autocite[page 3]{Test}.
Some text \parencite{Test2}.
Here is a footnote citation\footcite{Test}.
\autocite{Test,Test4,Test3}.
\printbibliography
\end{document}
![Sample output](https://i.stack.imgur.com/lFoty.png)
As the above shows this works with \autocite
, \parencite
and accepts their optional arguments. In this style \autocite
is the same as \cite
.
I haven't demonstrated \textcite
, though its ouptut may be useful sometimes; \footcite
has also been set up to work, thanks to biblatex
's blx@footnote
toggle that detects whether we are in a footnote or not.
The code also takes care of most multiple citations \cite{ref1,ref2}
. However, there is a spurious comma, if ref1
and ref2
are two publications from the same author in the same year. Fixing that requires, more substanitial rewriting of the citation style file: each of the commands \cite
, \textcite
, etc. in author-icomp.cbx
contains an explicit comma via \setunit{\addcomma}
, that needs to be deleted.
Original solution
Here is a repost of the original solution, as this apparently helps the OP best. It simply defines a newcommand \citepfy
(plain-foot-year) that calls \citeauthor
followed by a modified \footcite
command that produces only the year. It does not accept any of the optional arguments cite commands in biblatex
usually do.
\begin{filecontents}{b.bib}
@Article{Test,
author = {Author, A. N.},
title = {Article title},
year = 2005,
pages = {10-20},
journal = {Jour.},
vol = {100}
}
\end{filecontents}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[style=authoryear-icomp]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{b.bib}
\newcommand{\citepfy}[1]{\citeauthor{#1}\footyearcite{#1}}
\DeclareCiteCommand{\footyearcite}[\mkbibfootnote]
{\usebibmacro{cite:init}%
\usebibmacro{prenote}}
{\usebibmacro{citeindex}%
\usebibmacro{citeyear}}
{}
{\usebibmacro{cite:postnote}}
\begin{document}
\citepfy{Test}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
![Sample output](https://i.stack.imgur.com/TGn1o.png)
Whether using biblatex
is allowed in the solution or not is unclear. However, if biblatex
is indeed allowed, I recommend using biblatex
's \textcite
(as well as \citeauthor
and \citeyear
), with the following tweaks:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{mybiblio.bib}
@Book{Batchelor:2000,
address = {Cambridge, UK},
author = {Batchelor, G.{\,}K.},
title = {An Introduction to Fluid Dynamics},
publisher = {Cambridge University Press},
year = {2000},
}
\end{filecontents*}
\usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}
\renewcommand*\bibopenparen{[}
\renewcommand*\bibcloseparen{]}
\addbibresource{mybiblio}
\begin{document}
\noindent
All of this is discussed in \textcite{Batchelor:2000}.\\
\citeauthor{Batchelor:2000}'s book was published in \citeyear{Batchelor:2000}.
\printbibliography
\end{document}

Best Answer
First thing to do is to add a field for the journal abbreviation to the article entrytype,
journalabbr
in the MWE. Therefore you need to declare a datamodel (an extra file; in the MWE I've used filecontents to simulate that) and you have to tell biblatex/biber to use it in the package options.Then you have to modify the cite command, so it fits your needs.
\citep
from the authoryear-style (your citestyle) uses the\cite
command. There you just have to add a switch, which checks if the fieldjournalabbr
is empty or not, and prints it out or not.Last but not least you have to add the abbreviation fields to the entries.
MWE:
