Upgrade StorageWrong order of Citations
I have a Problem with my Citations in APA 7th style:
As far as I know the Articles etc. should be sorted by Year rising e.g. (xyz 2017; abc 2018; etc)
When I add Citations this order is sometimes simply wrong:
Engels & Röhl, 2019; Kollmann et al., 2021; Leitner et al., 2019; Löher, 2022; Röhl & Engels, 2021; Wrobel et al., 2017)
I needed to adjust the year of Wrobel et al. manually (in Zotero not in Word) and therefore I thought this might be part of the issue but Leitner et al. for example and lots of other sources are simply scraped via the web tool and are also cited wrong.
I tried refreshing the whole document but nothing happened.
What could be the problem and what could be a possible solution to that?
I mean I could adjust it manually but its very time consuming and i might also miss citations.

damnation@bwiernik in case you missed it. :)

adamsmithNo, the above is correct. APA sorts items in citations exactly as in the bibliography, i.e. first alphabetically by author

HannesRichter@damnation @adamsmith do you have a solution for my problem?
-
adamsmithI don't know what you want me to say: your premise is incorrect. The citation you show is correct APA. If you don't want to follow APA style, you'd use a different citation style

HannesRichter@adamsmith thank you I got it now... You saved me a lot of time and struggle :)
