Dear All,
I was wondering if anybody could help with the following issue. I am using the IEE style/ Mendeley, Some times it is showing the multiple authors/editors in the list of references and sometimes it showing' et al.' I would like to list all of the author's names instead. It's fine in the citations, but not in the list of references.
My style is below, in case that helps.
C. Tucher et al., “Extracellular vesicle subtypes released from activated or apoptotic T-lymphocytes carry a specific and stimulus-dependent protein cargo,” Front. Immunol., vol. 9, no. MAR, Mar. 2018.
D. Lv, Z. Hu, L. Lu, H. Lu, and X. Xu, “Three-dimensional cell culture: A powerful tool in tumor research and drug discovery,” Oncology Letters, vol. 14, no. 6. Spandidos Publications, pp. 6999–7010, 01-Dec-2017.
Many thanks,
Eman

You can do whatever you want using edit style tool. Click view-citation style - more style - right click on desired style - edit.
In the first place, the et al. is being defined as an abbreviation for the Latin phrase et alia which means "and others." Moreover, It's up to the author if you wish to remove or use it in your paper and there's nothing wrong with that.
You need to open the 'citation style' dialogue box on Mendeley desktop. Right click on the style you want to choose and click edit. This will take you to the CSL editor online.
On left hand side of the editor, you will see some options, style info, inline citations, bibliography. Expand 'Layout' under bibliography you will see 'citation number, author, conditional'. Expand 'author(macro)' and then expand 'names'.
From the options below, select 'name' and in the main window, scroll down to the option ' et-al-min ' and select the number of authors you want to be used as cut off for et-al to be used. (eg. in my case, number of authors was 10 so I selected 11.)
Then on the top left corner hover your cursor on style and save style. This would automatically update the mendly desktop with a new style with a name 'IEEE- YOUR NAME'.
