I want to change the style of the short names for the citations in the text. The implementation of biblatex I am using is as follows:
\usepackge[
style=alphabetic,
isbn=false,
doi=false,
url=false,
firstinits=true,
pagetracker=true,
maxbibnames=50,
maxcitenames=1,
minalphanames=1,
autocite=inline,
block=space,
backref=true,
backrefstyle=three+,
date=short,
backend=bibtex,
bibencoding=UTF8
]{biblatex}
This works fine so far. It produces a bibliography that looks like this:
I want to change the citations in brackets on the left. Currently they take the first three letters for one author, for more authors it just takes the first letter for each the authors and for mor than 3 authors it takes the first 3 letters of the first author and adds a plus. After that they get two numbers for the year.
Now I want that all papers just get the first three letters of the first authors last name (and the two numbers for the year). In my citavi .bib file it is set that way but I don't know how to change this in latex.
EDIT: Ok good news, it did work and the bibliography looks just the way I wanted, thanks a lot!
But now there have appeared some error masseges at the print bibliography:
And the errors say:
I appreciate the help, thanks. Daniel
