comma before page

nicolasfabian

Hey. I edited the havard-cardiff-style. Everthing is working except this thing: I am not able to get a comma before the page of in-text citations. It is now like this: "Wilderness is a virgin..." (Ladres S. 8) and should be like that: "Wilderness is a virgin..." (Ladres, S. 8).
Is anybody able to help? I would be very, very appreciated!

add a comma as delimiter in the outer group here,
<layout prefix="(" suffix=")" delimiter="; ">
<group delimiter=" ">
<text macro="author-short"/>
<text macro="year-date"/>
<group>
<label variable="locator" suffix="." form="short" strip-periods="true"/>
<text variable="locator"/>
</group>
</group>
</layout>

in other words, change it to (includes some cosmetic changes):

<layout prefix="(" suffix=")" delimiter="; ">
<group delimiter=", ">
<text macro="author-short"/>
<text macro="year-date"/>
<group>
<label variable="locator" form="short"/>
<text variable="locator"/>
</group>
</group>
</layout>

Hey adamsmih,
thanks for your help, but now it looks like this: "Wilderness is a virgin..." (Ladres, 2012, S. 8) instead of "Wilderness is a virgin..." (Ladres 2012, S. 8)
Do you know the mistake?

sorry, should be:
<layout prefix="(" suffix=")" delimiter="; ">
<group delimiter=", ">
<group delimiter=" ">
<text macro="author-short"/>
<text macro="year-date"/>
</group>
<group delimiter=" ">
<label variable="locator" form="short"/>
<text variable="locator"/>
</group>
</group>
</layout>
