last name, short title for footnotes

The way the footnote templates are set up, there is a longer version of the footnote for the first time cited, and a shorter version the second time cited for each ref type.  If you want the short version irrespective of the first or second citation, you should copy the short form into the first box too, in your output style.  Save as to a new name and ensure you select this newly named style in your document.  (you will likely have to view all styles to find it the first time.).
