Concerning the citation and bibliography of my thesis, some issues I could solve myself, with others I got help. But here are two aspects, which I'd like to change, but I couldn't figure them out on my own:

  1. I'd like the abbreviation to »et al.« for more than two authors in all in-text citations, beginning with the first mention. Currently on first mention it will look like »Author A / Author B / Author C 2000« and from second mention like »Author A et al. 2000«. Is there a modification available?

  2. I'd like to add »S.« (german abbreviation for »Seite«, meaning »Page«) in all the citations of journals in the bibliography. It should look similar to book chapters. Is there a way to add that?

I'm using APA-Style with biber as backend for biblatex. All help is much appreciated.

  • Please ask only one question per question. That makes your question easier (and quicker) to answer and ensures that it is relevant for more people. See https://tex.meta.stackexchange.com/q/7425/35864 – moewe Jul 19 '18 at 05:19

Point 2 should be as easy as

\DeclareFieldFormat*{pages}{\mkpageprefix[bookpagination]{#1}}

Point 1 is more complicated. Given that you are already deviating far from APA style, it might be worth a try to just load the standard authoryear style for citations

style           = apa,
citestyle       = authoryear,

The fact that you then still don't get "First Author et al." in your MWE is due to Set limit to one author when using "et al." in biblatex.

Note how I changed your .bib entries. In particular the content of the langid field must be a language name known to babel.

  • Thanks for your answer – both points work perfectly. Your advice concerning the bib-entries is also much appreciated. I manage my literature with zotero (export bibliography, format: »better biblatex«) and so I'll replace the langid-fields for the whole bibliography as a last step, when the text is finished. I like your idea with the subtitle-fields, but as zotero doesn't offer this field, I can't use it and help myself with this »—«. With more than 200 entries I can't change that manually. Or is there a way to add this field in zotero? – Leandro Jul 19 '18 at 18:18
  • @Leandro I'm not a Zotero user myself, but if you use Better BibTeX, I believe you have (almost) full control over the fields and the export and it should be possible to export subtitle fields and the correct values for langid. – moewe Jul 19 '18 at 18:58
  • I just noticed, that now (maybe because of citestyle=authoryear ?) printbibliography gives the following: (1) for two authors »Author, A. & Author, B.« instead of »Author, A. / Author, B.«, (2) for more authors »Author, A. / Author, B. & Author, C.« instead of always »/« as delimiter, (3) same goes for editors »A. Editor & B. Editor« instead of »A. Editor / B. Editor«, (4) and more »A. Editor / B. Editor & C. Editor« instead of always »/« as delimiter. Is there a way to fix that, too? – Leandro Jul 19 '18 at 19:17

  • thanks a lot, that worked perfectly for authors, but not for editors: they are still produced like »A. Editor & B. Editor«. – Leandro Jul 19 '18 at 19:52
  • Excuse me for asking again, but could you also give me an advice for the changing of the editors? @moewe – Leandro Jul 23 '18 at 13:58
  • @Leandro Check the update, please. The picture has not changed, but the code has. – moewe Jul 23 '18 at 14:35
  • Unfortunately I just noticed, that for books and book-chapters the location and publisher are not shown, when there's a doi (in the example this is the case for Revelle / Condon 2018). Is there a way to solve this? It should look like it is now, but the end like this: [...] (Bd. 2, S. 709–749). Chichester: J. Wiley & Sons. doi:10.1002/9781118489772.ch23 – Leandro Sep 24 '18 at 08:42
  • @Leandro My guess would be that this is an APA feature. I suggest you ask a new question about this with a short MWE. – moewe Sep 24 '18 at 09:01
