If you are likely to use the aliases in many documents, you can put a list of the \defcitealias commands in a tex file and then use Insert-> File->Child Document in LyX. I noticed that you can put the \defcitealias in the main document or the Preamble. Both work, so I guess it depends on what suits you. The child document tip is great too. Thanks for putting this on the wiki. Ditto. Worked like a charm for me. It might be worth making that "t" in cite_t_alias bold... I thought it was a typo on Stephen's part and it derailed me for 5 minutes. :) The commands are in the natbib documentation There is both a \citetalias (text only) and a \citepalias (parentheses around text) I found that I had to use \citetalias followed by the LyX citation to get the overall style I wanted.

Thanks for putting this on the wiki. I asked this same question about 10 years ago on a latex message board and got the tip from Oren Patashnik (author of bibtex) himself! So obviously it is not a well known command.

Gmane apparently messes with links when you use its posting mechanism, but I am also unsure how and why. In this post your link was again messed up (and I deleted it). Regardless, I got the good link and the solution is nice. Thanks!
