Upgrade StorageAPA 6th edition
Hello! Does anybody know for surely if the Zotero software follows the latest suggestions of APA style 6th edition? I think there are some details that fit to the previous APA suggestions.

still there is an error I think. According to APA 6TH edition, when three or more authors are cited for first time in the text the citation should be formed like that: (Parket et al., 2010).
Instead what happens to me is that the relevant citation is formed first time like that:(Parker, Patton, Madden & Sinclair, 2010) and then: (Parket et al., 2010).
Any ideas why this happens????

I don't know why you think that "when three or more authors are cited for first time in the text the citation should be formed like that: (Parket et al., 2010)."
but it's definitely incorrect.
