Got problem when using the citation style APA
Hey everyone,
I got a problem when using the citation style APA. Why the reference number never come out when I choose APA as the citation style? It only appears parentheses with several words in it.
For example, if i wanna cite a reference after the sentence "fabrication of well-defined geometrical features", it will not be like fabrication of well-defined geometrical features[1], it appears something like this(Espinosa, 1976), which is so weird. And the order number does not appear as well when I insert bibliography.
Does anyone no what the problem is? I need it quickly. Thanks very much!
Best,
Shan

I sometimes use APA style but with citation numbers to save space in the text. If you would like to use this for some reason, you can download my personal version of the style here:

Thanks very much for your information.
Is it the APA format?

I think it is. I wanna use this format with citation numbers.
And how to add the style to my zotero?????
Thanks very much!!!

You can use http://editor.citationstyles.org/searchByExample/ to search for citation styles.

If you want to use the downloaded file, the link I gave you above gives you these two options: and Both would work.
If you actually do want APA with numbers, see bwiernik's post above.
If you want the style as you show it above, I point you to the tool to find styles by example.
I don't think I can be of any further assistance, sorry.
Save it directly (right-click --> save link as) from
https://gist.github.com/bwiernik/8c6f39cf51ceb3a03107/raw/677a1693f1dac1a74d4ab4a39030089040a06a0c/APA%20Numeric
and just add .csl at the end when saving it & it will work.
