Issue: Pasting Citation in correct format

George0T

Hi All,

Originally it worked and now it doesn't.

When attempting to drag a citation with this APA style into scrivener like this...

GOV.UK. ‘State of the Water Environment Indicator B3: Supporting Evidence’. Accessed 18 October 2023. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/state-of-the-water-environment-indicator-b3-supporting-evidence/state-of-the-water-environment-indicator-b3-supporting-evidence.

I actually get this...

State of the water environment indicator B3: Supporting evidence—GOV.UK. (n.d.). Retrieved 19 October 2023, from https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/state-of-the-water-environment-indicator-b3-supporting-evidence/state-of-the-water-environment-indicator-b3-supporting-evidence

Does anybody know how I could alter to the correct format?

(I have set the "quick copy" to... American Psychological Association 7th edition in the export settings)

Many Thanks, for any suggestions!

That looks like you might be dragging the attached snapshot rather than the actual item with metadata? If not, is the metadata correct, e.g. with GOV.UK in the author field?

Yes, you are right! I works when I add the author's name in the reference field.
