APA style without p.

KatnissEverdeen
Hello!
Could somebody help me?
I would like to change the APA style 7th edition so that there is a colon after the year and without the p.
Like this: Ramadanty & Martinus, 2016:88

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Is this for a specific journal or publisher?

    No, I would like to change the general style.
    I would like to use the APA style 7th edition for my master's thesis but without the p.

    This is what the original APA style looks like when I cite something : Ramadanty & Martinus, 2016, p. 88
    and I would like to change it to: Ramadanty & Martinus, 2016:88
    This is just an expamle for all journals or books

    I already know how to change the colon (with group delimiter)
    but I have no idea how to do delete the p. (or in German the S.)

    1. Remove p.: Remove lines 1856-1858 completely.
    2. Change the delimiter in 1871 to a colon then put the author-intext and date-intext macros in the next two lines into their own group with a delimiter set to a comma.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    The problem is when I try to validate the new style there is an error:
    Line 1877: required character (found “l”) (expected “g”)
