In mkIV the option seems mandatory too. Otherwise I get the empty brackets. But only the authoryear and authoryears works for me. Not authornum.

This is how I use it. (following the habit of using natbib in Latex)

\usemodule[bib]
\setupbibtex
 [database={Manuscript},
  sort=author]
\setuppublications[numbering=yes]
\def\LocalRefList {\subject{References}\placepublications[criterium=chapter, option=continue]} 
\def\citet[#1]{\cite[authoryear][#1]}
\def\citep[#1]{\cite[authoryears][#1]}

The line
\def\LocalRefList {\subject{References}\placepublications[criterium=chapter, option=continue]} 
worked in mkII but not in mkIV.

Best regards,

Salil

Well, no. You always use keys as arguments, the option controls the
resulting output.  It called an option because it controls the
optional argument of \cite. A reference key is mandatory, because
otherwise the whole command would be pointless.

Try

  \setuppublications[alternative=num]

Best wishes,
