The Manual itself, as far as I know, mentions + only the seasons, but if you use a month specification higher than + 24 in a "date" field you can access these new divisions. Cf. Table + 3 in biblatex-chicago.pdf. + + - Since biblatex provides a mechanism for localizing name + presentation in the reference apparatus, Philipp Immel suggested I + add an option to facilitate access to it for users of + biblatex-chicago. The "cmsnameparts" option is the result, and is + available in all styles. Please consult section 7.1 in + biblatex-chicago.pdf for all the details. + + - Philipp also pointed out that the name parts code requires the + standard biblatex option "uniquename" to be turned on in the notes + & bibliography style. (It's now set to "minfull".) This fixes an + ancient bug, as Chicago has always required authors with the same + surname to be distinguished by initials or full given names in + short notes (14.32). + + - Patrick Danilevici pointed out that, in languages that don't use + the Oxford comma, it was generally wrong to have a comma after the + first, reversed name in an author list consisting of only two + names. I have removed it in such languages, but if you still want + the old behavior you can set something like the following in your + preamble: \DeclareDelimFormat{revsdnamedelim}{\addcomma}. + + - After a request by Ryo Furue, I've added the "onlynd" switch to the + "doi" package option in all styles in order to suppress both the + "url" and the "urldate", rather than just the former. See sections + 4.4.2 and 5.4.2 in biblatex-chicago.pdf. + + - After a bug report from Jon Arnold, I have tried to fix the + field-inheritance schemes for Audio, Music, and Video entries, + which should now work more intuitively in all styles if you use + "crossref" fields in them. Concretely, this means that a "title" + in one such entry (identifying a complete work or collection) can + become a "booktitle" in the child entry, identifying the work of + which the "title" is only one part. + + - Tobias Becht suggests that using specialized citation commands for + printing author-only citations of ancient works (cf. Manual + 14.244-5) is unnecessarily awkward. I have therefore provided the + "notitle" option (sections 4.4.3 and 5.4.3 in biblatex-chicago.pdf) + to turn a short author-title citation (whether in the notes & + bibliography style or the author-date styles) into an author-only + citation. You can set this option by entry type or in the + "options" field of individual entries. + + - Tobias also pointed out that the Manual permits using short + citations of ancient, medieval, and Renaissance works right from + the first citation in the notes & bibliography style, even if you + don't want to do the same for the entire document. You can + therefore now set the package option "short" for the whole + document, for specific entry types, and for specific entries. + + - Again at Tobias' prompting, I've modified how the ibidem mechanism + works for entries with "classical" "entrysubtype". This includes + following the Manual's guidelines about suppressing the "ibid." + string when using abbreviated forms of authors' names (unless + you've set "useibid=true" in the "options" field of the entry + itself). I've also made the "noibid" and "useibid" options more + granular, the former in all styles and the latter in notes & + bibliography. You can now set them globally, per type, and per + entry. + + - Having noticed that the "journaltitleaddon" field is standard in + biblatex, I have added it to the Article and Review types, as well + as adding the "titleaddon" field to the Periodical type, and this + in all styles. The "jtitleaddon" option controls the separator + between the main title and the annex in all these cases. It is set + to "space" by default. See sections 4.4.2 and 5.4.2 of + biblatex-chicago.pdf. + + - Alanna Warner-Smith reported that the author-date styles weren't + distinguishing citations with "extradate" letters when a + "journaltitle" replaced the "author". This is, I hope, fixed. + + - After input from Claudius Ellsel, I've revised the hyperref + functionality in the author-date styles, allowing you to choose + which parts of a citation will act as links to the entry in the + reference list. Two new user options, "hyperall" and "hypername", + complement the pre-existing "hypertitle" to give more fine-grained + control. All of these options are available globally, per type, + and per entry. See section 5.4.3 of biblatex-chicago.pdf. + + - After a request from Samuel Foster, I've provided the + "suppressnoterefs" option for the notes & bibliography style, + settable per entry type and per entry, which prevents the printing + of the "noteref" back reference after such entries. This + may be more convenient than using the specialized citation commands + to achieve the same end. Cf. section 4.4.4. + + - There were many other bugfixes, including another attempt to make + the "postnotepunct" option work more reliably, improvements to + "shorthand" behavior in the author-date styles, and fixes, + suggested by David Thiel, to the hyperref functionality when using + cmsendnotes.sty. + + Release notes for version 2.2 [2021-06-30]: All styles still require the current biblatex (3.16) and biber (2.16). @@ -2199,7 +2305,7 @@ Changelog for version 0.7 [2008-08-18]: - First public release -Copyright (c) 2008-2018 David Fussner.
