BibTex Referencing, Citing a previous reference.

James Roy_4py2oo

Hi, hoping someone cam help out here.

I am using the 'BibTeX Referencing’ Macro and ‘BibTeX Display Table’ Macro to generate a bibliography. This is an example of what I would like to achieve:

In my text I would like to cite[1] the same reference more than once[1] but have that reference only appear once in the reference table[2]

I've done some poking around, https://docs.adaptavist.com/cfm4cs/latest/content-formatting-macros/bibtex-referencing.

But, I can't find how I should cite the same reference multiple times and only create one reference in in the ‘BibTeX Display Table’ Macro.

I am using the 'BibTeX Referencing’ Macro to create the first reference:

@misc{acem_trige,
  author       = {Australasian College for Emergency Medicine},
  title        = {Triage},
  year         = {n.d.},
  url          = {https://acem.org.au/Content-Sources/Advancing-Emergency-Medicine/Better-Outcomes-for-Patients/Triage},
  note         = {Retrieved December 12, 2024}
}

Then a second occurrence of the macro with:

\cite{acem_trige}

This results in an error:

 

If I simply duplicate the reference macro, the table is repeated:

 

Thanks for your help, hopefully I"m missing something simple.
