How to insert a page number in an in-text citation in Mellel?

Post by domino »

Hi everyone! I'm a french user. I'm trying to set Bookends with Mellel and I was wondering if I had to set Bookends specifically in order to insert in-text citations in my Mellel document. This is the problem I have to face to:
I'm writing an article using APA 7th edition and I have to insert a page number into my in-text citations as follows : (Author, Date, p. 12).
In Mellel, when I edit manually a first reference, then scan my document, it works: the page number is perfectly recognized and inserted. But, when I add a new in-text citation, with a new reference, Mellel tells me that there is an unmatched citation. Therefore, I cannot insert more than one reference with its page number in my document. Is there anyone here who could help me fix that problem? Thanks for your help.

I've just found how to do it. When you launch the floating window, you have to click on Copy Citation and Modifiers and voilà!
