The code of your example is broken (e.g. two \documentclass
). After fixing this the problem persists, because biblatex
tries to split the organization name National Center for Health Statistics at the author
field into firstname and lastname. You can avoid this using extra braces:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[a4paper, text={16.5cm, 25.2cm}, centering]{geometry}
\usepackage[sfdefault]{ClearSans}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\hypersetup{
colorlinks,
linkcolor={black},
citecolor={blue!50!black},
}
\setlength{\parskip}{1.2ex}
\setlength{\parindent}{0em}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex,
style=authortitle-comp,
natbib=true,
]{biblatex}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@Electronic{unintentional,
Title = {Accidents or Unintentional Injuries},
Author = {{National Center for Health Statistics}},
Note = {[Accessed on August 10, 2016]. Available on:\textcolor{blue}{http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/accidental-injury.htm}}
}
\end{filecontents}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\begin{document}
here is just a test. \footcite{unintentional}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
BTW: \footcite
isn't made to be used inside \footnote
but makes a footnote itself.
Generally I would suggest to use biber
instead of bibtex
. New biblatex
features need biber
. It is time to change.
To get cites with numbers in brackets you can use the numeric
style of biblatex
. But \footcite
won't show the author and title in this case. Audrey has already shown in how to define such a footcite command:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[a4paper, text={16.5cm, 25.2cm}, centering]{geometry}
\usepackage[sfdefault]{ClearSans}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{parskip}% Much better than:
% \setlength{\parskip}{1.2ex}
% \setlength{\parindent}{0em}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\usepackage[backend=bibtex,
style=numeric,
natbib=true,
]{biblatex}
\usepackage{hyperref}% Generally last package loaded
\hypersetup{
colorlinks,
linkcolor={black},
citecolor={blue!50!black},
}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@Electronic{unintentional,
Title = {Accidents or Unintentional Injuries},
Author = {{National Center for Health Statistics}},
URL = {http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/accidental-injury.htm},
urldate = {2016-08-10},
}
\end{filecontents}
% Define new \footcite like command with number and author
\DeclareCiteCommand{\footpartcite}[\mkbibfootnote]
{\usebibmacro{prenote}}
{\usebibmacro{citeindex}%
\mkbibbrackets{\usebibmacro{cite}}%
\setunit{\addnbspace}
\printnames{labelname}%
\setunit{\labelnamepunct}
\printfield[citetitle]{title}%
\newunit
\printfield{year}}
{\addsemicolon\space}
{\usebibmacro{postnote}}
\DeclareMultiCiteCommand{\footpartcites}[\mkbibfootnote]{\footpartcite}{\addsemicolon\space}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\begin{document}
here is just a test. \footpartcite{unintentional}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
This will produce:


Note, I've also replaced the Note
field by URL
and urldate
. See the biblatex
manual for more information about these and about how to customize the output of the URL date.
If you need a similar cite command, that does not create a footnote itself but can be used inside \footnote
or somewhere else without creating a footnote just use the same definitions without the optional argument \mkbibfootnote
:
\DeclareCiteCommand{\partcite}
{\usebibmacro{prenote}}
{\usebibmacro{citeindex}%
\mkbibbrackets{\usebibmacro{cite}}%
\setunit{\addnbspace}
\printnames{labelname}%
\setunit{\labelnamepunct}
\printfield[citetitle]{title}%
\newunit
\printfield{year}}
{\addsemicolon\space}
{\usebibmacro{postnote}}
\DeclareMultiCiteCommand{\partcites}{\partcite}{\addsemicolon\space}
With this you can use:
Test: \footnote{\label{ftn:unintentional}\partcite{unintentional}}
See footnote \ref{ftn:unintentional}.
To create a footnote with label.
Please read the documentation of the used commands, i.e., \DeclareCiteCommand
in the biblatex
manual for more information about creating new cite commands.
