Remove ibid, change it back to author-date

alexjg

Hi

I am finalising my custom style for my thesis and I have been asked to change the ibid citations back to author-date citations.

The code for my csl file can be found here:
https://gist.github.com/alexjgnana/be85f8e919633386e81e

I tried removing lines 353 - 359 as these reference ibid and then I removed 360 and 370 as these reference else but this did not work.

I had a look at the citation style language specification, but I was unsure how to take out the ibid lines of code without breaking the file.

Any help would be most welcome
Kind regards
Alex

Hi
Thanks again I really appreciate it. I see that I left too much of the redundant code it and so bits of it were incomplete, hence why it broke the code.
Kind regards
