Help! Messed up the code in APA 7
Hi everyone,
A very beginner user here. I had an issue with the order of references in parentheses. If there are multiple references, Zotero orders the citations in alphabetical order. I wanted to keep the order that I originally inputted my references in (usually by year, but sometimes also per relevance to the text, etc.)
Based on the instructions I read online, I tried to modify the code and delete a chunk of text between and .
However, I must have deleted a wrong part of the code, as now the issue still persists - but now my bibliography is all jumbled up and not ordered alpabetically!
Please note that I tried to create my own reference style and only modify that, but it did not seem to "download" into the styles list. Therefore, I edited the APA 7 style directly, and this thing happened.
I'm not sure how to redeem the situation. Perhaps if someone could post the whole, functioning code here, I could copypaste that into the APA 7 style editor and then restore normalcy?
Thanks in advance,
Newbie

The bibliography now looks right. However, the references within the text are still organised alphabetically, not chronologically.
How can I change this? Thank you.
Another modification that would work well would be to "never sort" the references. I've always input the references in the order I want them.
Is this somehow possible to change within the APA?
Thank you.
Currently I get an error message saying that it is not proper XML when I try to delete what I think is on lines 1644-1649.
