Upgrade StorageMLA 8 Double Quotation Marks instead of Single Quotation Marks in Works Cited list
Dear community,
I have a problem with the quotation marks as well as punctuation within the biliography generated by Zotero Conncetor in Microsoft Word. I have already changed the Language of my Zotero App to US English, as I have read online that this could solve the problem, but it did not, unfortunately.
I need to use the MLA 8 citation style, which, according to the official MLA research guide, will list items in the Works Cited list in the following way:
Topping, Alexandra. "Four-Fifths of Young Women in the UK Have Been Sexually Harassed, Survey Finds | Sexual Harassment | The Guardian." The Guardian (in italics), 3 Oct. 2021, https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/mar/10/almost-all-young-women-in-the-uk-have-been-sexually-harassed-survey-finds.
However, when I use Zotero Connector to create a Works Cited List in Microsoft word, the same item is listed like this:
Topping, Alexandra. ‘Four-Fifths of Young Women in the UK Have Been Sexually Harassed, Survey Finds | Sexual Harassment | The Guardian’. The Guardian (in italics), 3 Oct. 2021, https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/mar/10/almost-all-young-women-in-the-uk-have-been-sexually-harassed-survey-finds.
As you can see, instead of "Title.", the bibliography generated with Zotero Connector uses 'Title'. So, I need two changes here:
1. double instead of single quotation marks
2. the closing quotation marks need to come AFTER instead of before the full stop
Could someone please help me?
Thank you
Christina

Changing the language of Zotero itself will not change this.
I have changed it now and the list has been updated. Now the style is exactly how I need it to be, thank you very much!
