I'm writing my document in British English, but live in the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, the short date format is dd-mm-yyyy, as opposed to the British dd/mm/yyyy.
How can I get biblatex to use this date format for its short dates?
I can't use the solution in this answer to a related question, as that would also change the localisation of the bibliography, and frankly, the other answers to that answer are pretty much Greek to me. Surely there must be an easier way?
I've tried adding \usepackage[dutch]{datetime2}
, \DTMsetdatestyle{dutch}
, but that has no effect whatsoever.
MWE:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@article{key,
author = {A. Author},
title = {Some title},
url = {example.org},
urldate = {2019-12-31}
}
\end{filecontents}
\usepackage[british]{babel}
\usepackage[backend=biber,style=ieee]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\begin{document}
\nocite{key}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
Using \usepackage[dutch]{babel}
is able to give the right date format, so it should be possible.
Current output is
A. Author, “Some title”, [Online]. Available: example.org (visited on 31/12/2019).
Desired output:
A. Author, “Some title”, [Online]. Available: example.org (visited on 31-12-2019).
