Differentiating multiple works by the same author from the same year?

    Is there any way in Zotpress to do disambiguation for multiple works by the same author(s) from the same year? I tried just adding ‘a’, ‘b’, etc. to the years and it caused the dates to display as ‘n.d.’. I then tried putting spaces, dashes, underscores, and slashes between the year and letter, and everything I’d try would either display as ‘n.d.’ or make only the year show up in the in-text citations, without the letter. My supervisor really wants us to be able to do this so it’s important that we figure something out. Anyone have any tips or know of a workaround?

    Please explain in more detail what you’re trying to accomplish and how you are using ZotPress and WordPress exactly, including the shortcodes you’re using to cite sources.

    Since ZotPress uses CSL for citation styles, if you use it as indicated in the help and instructions, it should automatically disambiguate in just the way you describe. But exactly what it looks like depends on the citation style you’ve selected and the shortcodes you are using to summon ZotPress.

    Disambiguation for in-text citations will be in the next version.
