I have a question about an error message "(author?) [5]" rendered into my PDF. I'd very much like to render just the number in brackets. My bib file created with BibDesk looks like this:

@book{Martin_2002,
Author = {Martin, Robert Cecil},
Date-Added = {2016-04-03 19:49:12 +0000},
Date-Modified = {2016-04-03 19:49:46 +0000},
Publisher = {Prentice Hall Computer},
Title = {Agile Software Development. Principles, Patterns, and Practices},
Year = {2002}}

I'm citing using this configuration:

\usepackage{natbib}
\bibliographystyle{ieeetr}
\setcitestyle{numbers,open={[},close={]}}
...
\citet{Martin_2002}

The log file has plenty of warnings regarding the author:

Package natbib Warning: Author undefined for citation`Martin_2002'

The bibliography renders just fine:

[19] R. C. Martin, Agile Software Development. Principles, Patterns, and Practices. Prentice Hall Computer, 2002.

I'm quite the tex noob. How can I fix this? Thanks!

  • What is the output? Make a citations section (\makebibliography or similar) and tell us what it does. Is there anthing missing? – MaestroGlanz Apr 10 '16 at 12:26

Using this bibstyle file answered my question:

\bibliographystyle{plainnat}

It was a duplicate of Natbib In-Text Citation displays (author?). Thanks for the help!
