I am using ConTeXt ver: 2013.01.10 01:04 MKIV and here is the MWE. I would like to create numbered bibliography with *Author name [1]* format. If multiple authors are present then it should produce *Author /et al./ [1]*. This does not happen. Instead I get *Author, [1]*. Since I am new to ConTeXt, I might be making a basic mistake. Devendra --------------- \setupbibtex[database={bib}] % As suggested by Aditya on TEX SX. \setuppublications[alternative=num, refcommand=authornum] \starttext I am refering to \cite{me13} . \placepublications[criterium=text] \stoptext ---------------- bib.bib ---------------- @article{me13, title = {This bibliography in context}, author = {Convert, Recent and User, Power and Fiddler, Amateur}, journal = {Tex SX}, volume = {1}, number = {1}, pages = {1-11}, year = {2013}, } ---------------
