--suppress_author flag replaces author with title

[mshadbolt]

Hello, thanks for the great plugin!
I am attempting to use the --suppress_author flag on my github pages site here:

https://github.com/AustralianBioCommons/human-omics-data-sharing-field-guide/blob/2ce95e4f5420eabdbc3c907c043c383e0bee65a7/pages/legal_ethical/australian_legal.md?plain=1#L27

But when it is rendered on my site it replaces the authors with the title of the paper:
https://australianbiocommons.github.io/human-omics-data-sharing-field-guide/australian_legal#the-privacy-act

I found an old issue (#88) that suggested using particular versions of citeproc so I added these to my gemfile:

https://github.com/AustralianBioCommons/human-omics-data-sharing-field-guide/blob/2ce95e4f5420eabdbc3c907c043c383e0bee65a7/Gemfile#L12

But this didn't fix the issue. Is there anything else I can try in order to successfully suppress the author?

I am using an older version of jekyll-scholar (5.16.0) as I am using a jekyll theme that relies on Jekyll ~3.9.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hm, it does look like that other issue. Are you sure that the right version of the citeproc-ruby Gem is being used? What does bundle show citeproc-ruby and bundle show citeproc say?

Furthermore, I'd check if your CSL style does indeed declare name substitutions (if you don't need them, you could edit the style and remove them).

Hi, I have the same issue using the default citation style (apa). Did you find out where the problem is?

Here are the versions of citeproc-ruby and citeproc.

> bundle show citeproc-ruby
/Users/shun/.gem/ruby/3.1.3/gems/citeproc-ruby-1.1.14
> bundle show citeproc
/Users/shun/.gem/ruby/3.1.3/gems/citeproc-1.0.10
