URLs without "retrieved from"
Hi,
we are using Zotero and Zotpress to generate a bibliography in APA style.
If we have an entry with a URL in the bibliography the URL is preceded by the text "retrieved from". We would like to have the URL but not with this text, since we are the authors and did not retrieve it from anywhere.
If there is no URL in the entry but a DOI, a URLis generated automatically (starting with https://doi.org/). Now this is not preceded by "retrieved from" but also no hyperlink is generated.
Both of course is not what we want: we want hyperlinks in both cases and no additional texts.
Does anyone know how to achieve this?

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
Here is some info on how to edit: https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/wiki/Editing-Styles
That the https...doi is not coming out as a hyperlink has to do with the wordprocessor, I think.
I see that you might be creating a document for a WordPress site. I think that I remember that ZotPress will, if set to do so, automatically convert strings beginning with http https into proper web links. If I am mistaken, I know that you can easily do this when doing final edits of your WordPress site.
Indeed, DWL-SDCA is right: I have a Zotero collection in the cloud and we try to create a bibliography on a WordPress site using ZotPress. When I undertsnad the comments correctly, the formatting is not done by Zotero but by the client application. Is that correct? So there should be some style-file inthe ZotPress directory. I did not yet find such a file. Maybe I should switch to a ZotPress Forum?

No I wil go for the problem why some urls are converted to proper web links and others not.
BTW: I really like the combination of Zotero and Zotpress. Its really the first simple, working, scalable and powerfull solution that I have seen to put a bibliography on a website.
