I started using BibLaTeX with the APA style, and I noticed that if two dates are the same (including n.d.), a label will be added to the year (e.g. 2016b or n.d.-b). I would like to remove these.
Here is a MWE:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[american]{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[backend=biber,style=apa]{biblatex}
\DeclareLanguageMapping{american}{american-apa}
\addbibresource{mwe.bib}
\begin{document}
\cite{tutpnt1}
\cite{tutpnt2}
...
\printbibliography
\end{document}
with mwe.bib
containing:
@online{tutpnt1,
author = {{TutorialsPoint}},
title = {{SLDC -- Iterative Model}},
url = {http://www.tutorialspoint.com/sdlc/sdlc_iterative_model.htm},
date = {},
urldate = {2016-04-09}
}
@online{tutpnt2,
author = {{TutorialsPoint}},
title = {{SLDC -- V-Model}},
url = {http://www.tutorialspoint.com/sdlc/sdlc_v_model.htm},
date = {},
urldate = {2016-04-09}
}
Is there any way to remove these labels? This assignment requires the APA style to be used. I am currently using MiKTeX v2.9.
\AtEveryCitekey{\clearfield{extrayear}}\AtEveryBibitem{\clearfield{extrayear}}
I believe you will lose APA compliance if you apply these changes,biblatex-apa
adheres to the APA rules quite strictly. BTW: It should probably only bestyle=apa
in thebiblatex
options. – moewe Apr 9 '16 at 15:51
