I want to be able to write, in my text, \cite[myKey] (where myKey is the key of a record in my .bib file), and have this appear in print as: [<a number>] linked to the bibliograpy page where it (<a number>) occurs. I've been puzzling over bibmod-doc.pdf. I think the solution has to do with the commands \setuppublications and \setupcite, but since bibmod-doc never says what these commands do, it's very difficult. I'm guessing \setuppublications might be able to control what argument I should use in the \cite[] command. I'm guessing \setupcite might control how a citation will be printed in the text. (If this is true, the manual should say so so the reader doesn't have to guess.) One cryptic line tells me: "refcommand the default option for \cite" just like that. Based on this, I'm guessing refcommand=key will let me write things like \cite[myFirstKey]. The manual goes on to clear up the confusion by explaining: "The \cite command has a lot of alternatives, as could be seen above in the setting of ‘refcommand’." That's it---no mention of what \setupcite does. Based on this, I'm hoping that \setupcite[num] will cause the citation to be printed as [<some number>], e.g., [1]. So, I'm using: \usemodule[bib] \setupbibtex[database=myProject] \setuppublications[refcommand=key,alternative=apa,setupinteraction=start,numbering=yes] \setuppublicationlist[] \setupcite[num][] ... \placepublications[criterium=all] The bibliography prints out, but citations appear as empty brackets: "[]". I want them to be numbers linked to the appearance of the same number in the bibliography. There must be a way of doing this?
