Re: Citation in footnote not expanded/exported to LaTeX (using Org-ref-cite)

[Elias Bounatirou]

Many thanks to Nicolas and Bruce for their mails and their help.

However, it appears Nicolas' MWE unfortunately does not  reproduce the issue. It's not the footnote that is omitted/ not exported, it's the citation in the footnote that is left out (when the footnote follows two or more citations, of which one has a suffix). In Nicolas' MWE, there is no citation in the footnote. What seems to me (being no export on LaTeX) strange about Bruce's LaTeX output is that there is no command \footnote{...} or the like. So is the footnote-part of the LaTeX output real LaTeX? (Sorry for this naïve question.)

I've tested again.

With verbose I get the same erroneous result: the citation in the footnote is not rendered (using the development version of org-mode, see below):

INPUT:

#+LANGUAGE: en

#+latex_header:\usepackage{minted}
#+bibliography_style: plain
#+cite_export: biblatex verbose
# Bibliography (bib file) specified within org-ref-cite in the init file

Body text [cite: @ravlic2021; @saric2010 with a SUFFIX][fn:1]
\printbibliography

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

(org-version)
#+end_src

* Footnotes

[fn:1]Test [cite: @senker1987]

LaTeX OUTPUT (shortened):

Body text \autocites{ravlic2021}[][with a SUFFIX]{saric2010}\footnote{Test}


\printbibliography

As a work around I insert a zero width space before footnotes in the context described.

Now I'm not sure.

Input:

----
#+language: en
#+bibliography: test.bib
#+cite_export: biblatex verbose

Body text with a citation: [cite:@low2001; @mcneill2011; with a suffix][fn:1].

#+print_bibliography:

* Footnotes

[fn:1] Third commentary, and then a citation: [cite:@low2001].
---

LaTeX output:

---
Body text with a citation: \autocites(with a
suffix){low2001}[][]{mcneill2011}\relax[1].

\printbibliography



Footnotes
─────────

[1] Third commentary, and then a citation: \autocite{low2001}.
---

But the PDF leaves off the last citation, in the footnote.
