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.
Generally, this is how you make it work. (adapt as necessary)
<names variable="author" delimiter=", ">
<name form="short" and="symbol" delimiter=", " initialize-with=". "/>
<et-al font-style="italic"/>
</names>
APA will likely have subsitutes set for the author. The et-al setting needs to come directly behind the name part.
Check your code with: https://validator.citationstyles.org/
The change has to be made in
<macro name="author-intext">
, line 215 :<names variable="composer" delimiter=", ">
<name form="short" and="symbol" delimiter=", " initialize-with=". "/>
<et-al font-style="italic"/>
<substitute>
...
</names>
I do not copy-paste the whole element as it is quite long. I hope this might help you.
<macro name="author-intext">
