Upgrade StorageModifications APA 6th Provost (French)
Hello,
I am personalising this Zotero style but I don't know how to change little details. For example, transform (Bélanger, & Chantraine, 2000) into (Bélanger & Chantraine, 2000), without the comma before the "&".
Thanks for your help

I just checked and it appears as (Watson & Crick, 1953) for me. Potentially there is a comma or somethin wrong with your specific paper you want to cite within in Zotero? Can you check it's not that first? Do other citations appear also with the comma?
Can you import this paper and test? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=13054692
Thanks for answering.
I tried with your paper, it worked ! (Watson & Crick, 1953)
But in the reference's list (at the end of the document), the same problem appears : Watson, J.D., & Crick, F.H. (1953). ...
That is not the same problem, that's a very different thing.
In CSL you can define what happens with the in-text citations and what happens with the reference list/bibliography at the bottom.
So, what is it that you need exactly? Is this for a specific journal you want this style for or just your self?
Thanks, I didn't pay attention to that ...
It's for our Bachelor thesis, our school impose us to do it this way ... For your paper, the reference is perfect except this litte comma before the "&".
It's literally just one little thing changed in line 525. Changed from et-al-use-last="false" to et-al-use-last="true".
But I now have another problem, for the in-text citation. I want it to look like this (Gu, Ran & Yu, 2016 ; Vafadar, Côté & Archambault, 2014) but I actually have this (Gu & Ran, 2016 ; Vafadar AK; Cote JN; Archambault PS, 2015). It's the same for every paper with 3 or more authors.
But if I export it from Zotero Standalone (using the keyboard, Ctrl+Maj+A) et paste it in Word, it's correct... I already checked the document preferences but they are right.
Can you go over the two examples you just gave? They don't look consistent and I'm unsure what you mean.
@damnation sorry I don't know how to explain differently. Do you speak french by any chance ?
But for those citations -- how do those come out in the generic APA style that comes with Zotero? I don't think it's even possible to program a citation style that just leaves out an author as in your Gu & Ran example, so this really looks like it's a problem with how you've entered them in Zotero.
