regardless of whether it's appropriate to ask your question here, @alf144753 have you solve it, brother? Cause I can't seem to find how to do so. The closest so far is http://frasergreenroyd.com/mendeley-changing-et-al-usage/ . But, after following it, still not updating in Ms Word.
@alf144753, these steps can help you; Open your Mendeley > View > Citation style > More Styles > Right-click on the style you are using in your document and choose Edit Style > Log-in to Elsevier account > On the left-side of the page, under Bibliography open the drop-down list under Group > Click Author > Click Names > Click Name > In the main section of the page, on the Name section, choose the maximum number (I found 19) under the "et-al min" option > On the top-left-corner of the page point at Styles > Select Save Style As > Give it a name > Click Save > On the pop-up message, click "Open MendeleyDesktop" > Choose your New referencing style you have created as your default > On your document, choose your new-created referencing style under References tab > Refresh your references. DONE!
But what if I want to increase the number of authors to 30 instead of 19?
I need to edit my own citation style so that it does not put et al. in the bibliography but cite all author names. Using the CSL editor, it seems simple to change the et al usage in-text but not in the bibliography, where my citations with over 5 Authors get et al. after the first name.
