Changing et al. preferences in APA CSL

ellierobson

Hi
I'm trying to edit my preferences so that the first citation lists all the authors and the subsequent ones use use the et al. abbreviation.
I have worked out how to change this in the preferences style editor tab but for some reason it is not translating to my essay when I press refresh or if I try to add a new citation.
Can anyone help please?

See the instructions here: https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/citation_styles/style_editing_step-by-step#install_your_edited_style_with_zotero
for how to install your style. You'll probably also want to change the style's ID and title (as explained further up on that page), as otherwise, future updates to APA style will overwrite your changes.
