Thanks for your work. I upload your apa.bbx to my overleaf project, it fixed the warning

Package biblatex Warning: The starred command '\DeclareDelimAlias*' is deprecated. Use the unstarred version '\DeclareDelimAlias' instead.

However, after that, "labelday" thing turns out in my main text and reference list.

the normal output should be like "Blau (1986) or Blau, 1986 but now it turns to be Blau (1986labelday) or Blau, 1986labelday

as the reference part, the normal output should be like

Blau, P. M. (1986). Exchange and power in social life (2nd ed.). Routledge. https://doi.org/10. 4324/9780203792643

but now it turns to be

Blau, P. M. (1986labelday). Exchange and power in social life (2nd ed.). Routledge. https://doi.org/10. 4324/9780203792643

My reference code is

@book{Blau1986, title = {Exchange and Power in Social Life}, author = {Blau, Peter M.}, date = {1986}, edition = {2}, publisher = {Routledge}, location = {New York}, doi = {10.4324/9780203792643} }

my package use code is \usepackage[style=apa,sortcites=true,sorting=nyt,backend=biber]{biblatex}

my reference insert code is parencite{key} or 'parencite*{key}'

I know I just need to modify your code a little bit, but I was so new to latex and under the thesis time pressure, I have no time to spend much time on fixing it by myself. So I come here to seeking help.

Thanks for your attention and patience.

I would recommend posting to tex.stackexchange.com if you need a rapid response - that is a very active site for such questions with a lot of style and biblatex users on there.

thanks for your replay. I would try it.

Some biblatex-apa versions use cutting edge code from (at the time of release) current biblatex and Biber versions. If you upload (parts of!) biblatex-apa to your Overleaf project you risk running into incompatibilities between biblatex-apa and Overleaf's biblatex and Biber versions.

If you upload a recent version of biblatex-apa, you definitely want to select the newest TeX live Overleaf have to offer. But this may not be enough. If your only reason for wanting a new biblatex-apa is to avoid the harmless warning, then frankly I wouldn't bother.
