I had Problems in January to use OSCOLA due to a bug in the coding when they updated BibLatex. Fixed: biblatex error: Option 'url' already defined with OSCOLA

I fixed it using the OSCOLA-FIXED.bbx

Now I am writing my thesis and I need to add it to a class document (law-thesis.cls), but it doesn't find it:

! Package biblatex Error: Style 'oscola-fixed' not found.

How do I integrate it in the class document?

  • Welcome to tex.se! The linked answer says about the fixed file: "put it into the same folder as your main .tex document". Is that where it is now, the same folder where your thesis is? Or is it in some other folder? TeX looks in the current folder first, and then some standard locations after, but won't know to look elsewhere, like the folder of a previous .tex project. – Cicada Nov 08 '20 at 04:53
  • If you have updated your TeX system to obtain a current version of oscola, you may need to reset your biblatex command back to \usepackage[style=oscola, ...]{biblatex}. – Cicada Nov 08 '20 at 04:58
  • I tried to put it in the same folder of the thesis.tex and also in the same folder of the class document and neither work – Amancay Nov 08 '20 at 13:01
  • Update your system thoroughly (https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/55437/35864) and use style=oscola, instead of style=oscola-fixed,. The current release version of biblatex-oscola no longer has the bug from the linked question. – moewe Nov 08 '20 at 13:06
  • Thank you! It works! – Amancay Nov 09 '20 at 13:03
  • @Cicada Do you want to type up a quick answer saying that (biblatex-)oscola has been fixed, so that oscola-fixed is no longer necessary? – moewe Nov 12 '20 at 15:35

biblatex-oscola has been fixed, so the workaround style=oscola-fixed, is no longer needed. Use style=oscola, as normal.
