I am currently using the built in citation style 'Journal of the Air & Waste Management Association' as it is the closest to the style that I need. However, the one issue I am having is when it comes to documents with the same first author and year, but different subsequent authors, shown below:
I have a paper by (Elphick, Davies, et al. 2011) and (Elphick, Bergh, et
al. 2011).
What I want is a paper by (Elphick et al. 2011a) and (Elphick et al.
2011b).
I have a very rudimentary knowledge of computer programming, and have been able to work out some small issues I was having using the CSL editor. However, I have not been able to figure out how to resolve this issue. Is anyone able to help me with this? Thanks!
There are multiple ways in CSL 1.0.1 to disambiguate in-text cites that otherwise would look the same. Adding the year-suffixes is the measure of last resort (assuming it's turned on with the disambiguate-add-year-suffix attribute on the <citation> tag). In your case, you will want to disable the disambiguation method of adding names of additional persons. You can do this by removing the disambiguate-add-names from the same tag. disambiguate-add-year-suffix needs to be set to "true".
See the CSL Doc for more information disambiguation.
