BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Subject: Issue with Sorting Multiple Citations in Text using biblatex (APA) and parencite

[JDG_92]

Hi everyone,

I'm encountering a problem with sorting multiple citations in my LaTeX document using biblatex with the APA style and the biber backend. Here are the details :

I’m working on a document that uses multiple citations through the \parencite command. The problem is that the multiple citations are automatically sorted alphabetically (author, year, title) in the text, but I would like to manually control their order (e.g., sort them by year in some sections or in a specific order that I define in the code). However, I want to keep the usual alphabetical sorting in the bibliography.

I use this code in my .cls file :

\RequirePackage[hyperref,doi=false,backend=biber,style=apa]{biblatex}
\DefineBibliographyExtras{french}{\restorecommand\mkbibnamefamily}
\DeclareFieldFormat{labeldate}{#1}
\DeclareFieldFormat{labelyear}{#1}

I would like to disable the automatic sorting of multiple citations in the text while keeping the bibliography sorted alphabetically according to APA rules.

Thank you for your help !
