Add a, b, c, etc.to citations/references according to in-text occurence, not reference order

HI, I have a few references from the same authors in the same year that get an a, b, etc.at the end.How do I modify the APA style such that the first cited reference gets the a, the second the b, etc?Currently they get the letters according to how they are sorted in the references section.
I found another thread that suggested removing the

line in the block, but it did not work for me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot!

    To be clear, it is correct APA style for the year suffixes to follow the bibliography sort order, not order of appearance in text.

    But if you want to sort (incorrectly, as per APA) in order of appearance, adding
    before title in the sort section should work.

    Yeah yeah sure it is correct but I want to modify it.I cannot get it to work.Maybe I misunderstand your message.This is how I have seit it up now:

    In the bibliography, not the citation sort section
