I'm working on a project that uses the MLA 7th edition but Zotero only provides the 9th edition and I can't find the older ones in the Zotero Style Repository. Is there a way for me to download it?

You can look up the file history of a given .csl file on GitHub and retrieve the code from any given timepoint via the history: https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/commits/master/modern-language-association.csl

You'd then need to give that style a unique ID,self-link and file name though, otherwise that style will just be overwritten iwth the latest version again.
