[Tex/LaTex] Supressing some fields from biblatex footcite

biblatex

I'm using biblatex in a beamer presentation and would like to show compact references in footnotes. I'm using \footfullcite, but the problem is that it prints all the fields usually expected in the bibliography section.

Since it's only a presentation, I don't want to waste space with page numbers, journal volumes or issues and a few other fields.

I sucessfully used \ExecuteBibliographyOptions to supress isbn, doi and url, but it can't deal with other fields, like the ones I mentioned. I found some similar questions here like this and this, but the methods suggested there also didn't work for me.

EDIT:

Here's an MWE:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage[backend=biber]{biblatex}

\begin{filecontents*}{references.bib}
    @article{TurneyPantel2010,
     author               = {Peter D. Turney and Patrick Pantel},
     journal              = {Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research},
     pages                = {141--188},
     title                = {From Frequency to Meaning: Vector Space Models of Semantics},
     volume               = {37},
     year                 = {2010},
     }
\end{filecontents*}

\addbibresource{references.bib}

\ExecuteBibliographyOptions{firstinits=true, isbn=false, url=false, doi=false, uniquename=init}

\begin{document}
  \begin{frame}
    This is a citation\footfullcite{TurneyPantel2010}.
  \end{frame}

\end{document}

This generates a footnote with:

P. D. Turney and P. Pantel. "From Frequency to Meaning: Vector Space
Models of Semantics". In: Journal of Articial Intelligence Research 37
(2010), pp. 141-188.

I want to have the following format:

[Author Names] [Title] In: [Conference or Journal] [Year]

Best Answer

The answers you've mentioned use \AtEveryBibitem, which is used to append code to an nternal hook executed at the beginning of every item in the bibliography.

You instead need \AtEveryCitekey, which is used to append code to an internal hook executed once for every entry key passed to a citation command.

So, something like

\AtEveryCitekey{%
\ifentrytype{article}{
    \clearfield{pages}%
    \clearfield{volume}%
}{}
}

permits you to clear the fields pages and volume at every citation of an article.

If you need it for all types of entries, simply use

\AtEveryCitekey{%
    \clearfield{pages}%
    \clearfield{volume}%
}

MWE:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage[backend=biber]{biblatex}

\begin{filecontents*}{references.bib}
    @article{TurneyPantel2010,
     author               = {Peter D. Turney and Patrick Pantel},
     journal              = {Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research},
     pages                = {141--188},
     title                = {From Frequency to Meaning: Vector Space Models of Semantics},
     volume               = {37},
     year                 = {2010},
     }
\end{filecontents*}

\addbibresource{references.bib}

\ExecuteBibliographyOptions{firstinits=true, isbn=false, url=false, doi=false, uniquename=init}

\AtEveryCitekey{%
\ifentrytype{article}{
    \clearfield{pages}%
    \clearfield{volume}%
}{}
}

\begin{document}
  \begin{frame}
    This is a citation\footfullcite{TurneyPantel2010}.
  \end{frame}
\end{document}
