Help with customising citation style

I am using Chicago 18th (author-date, classical) for conference papers -- I have a lot of old, scanned ones. When I don't add the page numbers, the citation includes the conference "event place" and "event date" details. Once I add that, it disappears. I would like to include this information, even for "published" papers (before entering the pages it cites it at presented at...).

I understand this may not be the standard for Chicago, so will make a custom version for myself, but just need some guidance to where in the code to do that...
  • See Chicago 14.115: a conference paper in published proceedings is to be treated like any other chapter of a book or journal article. The relevant line to modify, however, reads <if match="none" variable="collection-editor compiler editor editorial-director issue page supplement-number volume">, as part of the source-event-bib macro (if you want to do this for one of the notes styles, you will need to modify source-event-note as well).
  • Thanks, I understand it's not part of the standard (which is why I didn't request a variant), but my boss wants to see it... so I want to see it :-)
