Thanks for the sample file and the screencast, very nice. still a bit confused about org-ref-cite-types: Say, I want to add two new link types: textcite - somehow standard in biblatex, cf. the biblatex.pdf manual, p 81 citeauthorfull - my own creation - author with first- and lastname, cf below. from my document.org I load some latex preparation stuff like this #+LaTeX_HEADER: \include{ltxhdr} I was just getting tired of prefixing so many lines with #+LaTeX_HEADER: and collected some of those in a lxthdr.tex file. there I have prepared something for this citeauthorfull thingy: %% cf %% http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/24979/citing-authors-full-name-in-biblatex %% called citeauthorfirstlast... there \DeclareCiteCommand{\citeauthorfull} {\boolfalse{citetracker}% \boolfalse{pagetracker}% \DeclareNameAlias{labelname}{first-last}% \usebibmacro{prenote}} {\ifciteindex {\indexnames{labelname}} {}% \printnames{labelname}} {\multicitedelim} {\usebibmacro{postnote}} this does the job, don't ask me details. now back to org-ref: with your advice I add: ;; add new format (setf (nth 2 (assoc 'org reftex-cite-format-builtin)) (append (nth 2 (assoc 'org reftex-cite-format-builtin)) '( ;; C-t like text (?\C-t . "textcite:%l") ;; f like full (?f . "citeauthorfull:%l") ))) and I get the comfort of two additional citation formats to chose from when typing C-u C-c ] - nice, indeed. this is basically what you said in your e-mail before, now also on the org-ref.org webpage, (just shortcut and don't define that format variable) Now I can add these: (add-to-list 'org-ref-cite-types "textcite") (add-to-list 'org-ref-cite-types "citeauthorfull") but this is of limited use to me currently, at least I don't get the point, not sure if I am doing something wrong: say, I have added a few of these textcite:foo citeauthorfull:bar in my document.org, there are some problems with these: * first: they don't appear blue and clickable in my document.org * second: they don't get exported in the latex in a reasonable way, they appear there just as textcite:foo citeauthorfull:bar Well I can cure the situation by adding by adding (org-add-link-type "textcite" 'org-ref-cite-onclick-minibuffer-menu ;; formatting (lambda (keyword desc format) (cond ((eq format 'html) (format "(<textcite>%s</textcite>)" path)) ((eq format 'latex) (concat "\\textcite{" (mapconcat (lambda (key) key) (org-ref-split-and-strip-string keyword) ",") "}"))))) (org-add-link-type "citeauthorfull" 'org-ref-cite-onclick-minibuffer-menu ;; formatting (lambda (keyword desc format) (cond ((eq format 'html) (format "(<citeauthorfull>%s</citeauthorfull>)" path)) ((eq format 'latex) (concat "\\citeauthorfull{" (mapconcat (lambda (key) key) (org-ref-split-and-strip-string keyword) ",") "}"))))) now they appear clickable in blue, and get properly exported to \textcite{...} and \citeauthorfull{...} Now, what was the deal of this adding them to 'org-ref-cite-types in the first place, if I had to take care of the details by hand anyway? Is there anything I could have left out / shortcut / I have forgotten maybe? Thanks. -Andreas
