How to custom (split in two)? Ibidem

Question

Ok guys, here comes a really tough one, so I don't need an expert, but a superhero. I need to customize my idem/ibidem to match these possibilities:

• Same bibentry, same page -> Ibid. [without printing the page number]
• Same bibentry, different page -> Ivi, pagenumber
• Same author, different work -> ID. and what follows

I almost got there, but the footnote 2 of my MWE should be: 2. Ibid.

Perhaps I should introduce a new command which basically is: if there is an ibidem with the same page cited, print Ibid. and kill the pagenumber. The problem is that I have no idea about how to explain it to mr. LaTeX.

I'd appreciate very much any help on this hell issue

MWE:

% !TEX TS-program = XeLaTeX
% !TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode

Answer 1

The ibidpage option can almost do that. We just need to define the two new strings and use those. You also need to patch slightly different macros for the idem.
