Biblatex Chicago author-date system. Creating a hyperref for an only pagenumber citation when citing several references to the same source

Question

In the Chicago Manuel Of Style when citing multiple times the same source but a different page the In-Text citation should be only the pagenumber in brakets.

According to the Chicago Manuel Of Style text should look like the following:

Complexion figures prominently in Morgan’s descriptions. When Jasper compli­ ments his mother’s choice of car (a twelve-cylinder Mediterranean roadster with leather and wood-grained interior), “his cheeks blotch indignantly, painted by jealousy and rage” (Chaston 2000, 47). On the other hand, his mother’s mask never changes, her “even-tanned good looks” (56), “burnished visage” (101), and “air-brushed confidence” (211) providing the foil to the drama in her midst. (CMOS 2017, 905)

In my source code it would look like this:

Complexion figures prominently in Morgan’s descriptions. When Jasper compli­ ments his mother’s choice of car (a twelve-cylinder Mediterranean roadster with leather and wood-grained interior), “his cheeks blotch indignantly, painted by jealousy and rage” (\cite[47]{MyKeyChaston2000}). On the other hand, his mother’s mask never changes, her “even-tanned good looks” (56), “burnished visage” (101), and “air-brushed confidence” (211) providing the foil to the drama in her midst.

And my preamble package for the Chicago Manuel of Style author-date system is:

\usepackage[ authordate, backend=biber, natbib, maxbibnames=99, ibidtracker=false, ]{biblatex-chicago}

Is there a way to tweak the \cite command to create a hyperref to the right bibliography entry (for example \cite[47] {MyKeyChaston2000}) but only display the pagenumber (47)?

Answer 1

First of all you'll want to load biblatex-chicago without giving ibidtracker=false,, since you actually want the CMoS "ibid." feature.

\documentclass[american]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}

\usepackage[authordate, backend=biber,  maxbibnames=99]{biblatex-chicago}
\usepackage{hyperref}

\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}

\begin{document}
Lorem \autocite[380]{sigfridsson}
ipsum \autocite[381]{sigfridsson}
dolor \autocite[382]{sigfridsson}

\printbibliography
\end{document}

This doesn't link the postnote though, if you insist on that you can try

\documentclass[american]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}

\usepackage[authordate, backend=biber,  maxbibnames=99]{biblatex-chicago}
\usepackage{hyperref}


\renewbibmacro*{postnote}{%
  \iffieldundef{postnote}%
    {}%
    {\postnotewrapper%\setunit{\postnotewrapper}
     \printtext[bibhyperref]{\printfield{postnote}}}}

\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}

\begin{document}
Lorem \autocite[380]{sigfridsson}
ipsum \autocite[381]{sigfridsson}
dolor \autocite[382]{sigfridsson}

\printbibliography
\end{document}

or

\documentclass[american]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}

\usepackage[authordate, backend=biber,  maxbibnames=99]{biblatex-chicago}
\usepackage{hyperref}

\newtoggle{cms@wasibid}
