affiliationauthortitles
I am writing a paper in APA format and am trying to figure out how to get rid of the "Affiliation" that is printed on the title page. This is what I currently have:
\documentclass[letterpaper,man,natbib]{apa6}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\title{sometitle}
\shorttitle{sometitle}
\author{someauthor}
\abstract{asfdasdfasdf}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\end{document}
The entire list of authors is stored in \AB@authlist, while the superscripted affiliations are provided by \textsuperscript (note the trailing space!). As such, you can use \printauthorlist:
\newcommand{\printauthorlist}{{%
\expandafter\let\csname textsuperscript \endcsname\@gobble% Remove \textsuperscript
\AB@authlist}% Print list
}
It temporarily sets \textsuperscript to \@gobble, which just gobbles its argument (thereby removing the superscripted notation).
Here's a complete MWE:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[noblocks]{authblk}% http://ctan.org/pkg/authblk
\usepackage{fancyhdr}% http://ctan.org/pkg/fancyhdr
\makeatletter
\newcommand{\printauthorlist}{{%
\expandafter\let\csname textsuperscript \endcsname\@gobble% Remove \textsuperscript
\AB@authlist}% Print list
}
% Define \institutes command
\def\@institutes{}
\renewcommand\@institutes{\AB@affillist}
% HEADERS AND FOOTERS
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}% No header rule
\fancyfoot{}% Clear footer
\fancyfoot[R]{\printauthorlist}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\makeatother
\title{Title}
\author{author1}\author{author2}\affil{affil1}
\author{author3}\author{author4}\affil{affil2}
\begin{document}
\maketitle\thispagestyle{fancy}
This is some text.
\end{document}
You are required to use \csname textsuperscript \endcsname in order to capture the trailing space in the control sequence definition.
Typo: it is called \captionsenglish not \captions\english
Best Answer
Define a dummy
\affiliation(empty doesn't work,\mbox{}does).By the way, avoid
utf8x: it's unmaintained and does nothing that the currentutf8option can do. If you have an up-to-date TeX distribution,\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}can even be omitted.
