I'm citing in footnotes using autocite 

\usepackage[
  backend=biber,
  style=iso-authoryear,
  abbreviate=false,
  autocite=footnote,
  mincitenames=1,
  maxcitenames=4]
  {biblatex}
\bibliography{references}

To not show the footnote below the list of tables, I'm citing a table like: 

\caption[Treiber der Trends und Entwicklungen in der Arbeitswelt]{Treiber der Trends und Entwicklungen in der Arbeitswelt \autocite[5]{rump2017}}

(see also Remove citation from List of Figures). As expected, the footnote under the LoT disappears, but the citation also disappears from the page of the table itself. enter image description here enter image description here

Any idea how to solve this?

MWEB:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}

\usepackage[
backend=biber,
style=iso-authoryear,
abbreviate=false,
autocite=footnote,
mincitenames=1,
maxcitenames=4]
{biblatex}

\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
    @book{key,
        author = {Author, A.},
        year = {2001},
        title = {Title},
        publisher = {Publisher},
    }
\end{filecontents}

\begin{document}
\listoftables
\newpage

\begin{table}[]
    \caption[Test]{Test \autocite[5]{key}}
    \begin{tabular}{lll}
        1 & 2 & 2
    \end{tabular}
\end{table}

\raggedright\printbibliography
\end{document}

Be careful, the following only works if the table does not float to another page. If it does, you have to manually move \footcitetext{key} to a suitable place.

The problem is not related to your list of tables or removing the footnote there, but how to use footnotes in floats - which is tricky. With some manual intervention, you could do something like this:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}

\usepackage[
backend=biber,
style=iso-authoryear,
abbreviate=false,
autocite=footnote,
mincitenames=1,
maxcitenames=4]
{biblatex}

\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
    @book{key,
        author = {Author, A.},
        year = {2001},
        title = {Title},
        publisher = {Publisher},
    }
\end{filecontents}

\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}

\begin{document}
\listoftables

\newpage

\begin{table}[htbp]
    \caption[test]{Test  \footnotemark}
    \begin{tabular}{lll}
        1 & 2 & 2
    \end{tabular}
\end{table}
\footcitetext{key}

\clearpage

\raggedright\printbibliography
\end{document}

  • Would it normally not be enough to just use \footnotemark without optional argument and let LaTeX increase the counter? There is also the command \footcitetext that can be used instead of \footnotetext{\cite{key}} – moewe Jun 26 '18 at 20:16
  • @moewe You are right as always! Thanks for your comment! And now I go and try to find out why I need the \addtocounter{footnote} \footnotemark[\thefootnote] construct in my own document .... – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Jun 26 '18 at 20:33
