after the review process at an Elsevier journal, I was told the reference format is wrong. I looked it up and it appears, that in the text when you cite they would like to have (Name, year), whereas I get (Name (year)).
As of now my text looks like this:
\documentclass[review]{elsarticle}
\usepackage{lineno,hyperref}
\modulolinenumbers[5]
\journal{Journal of \LaTeX\ Templates}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%% Elsevier bibliography styles
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%% To change the style, put a % in front of the second line of the current style and
%% remove the % from the second line of the style you would like to use.

%\bibliographystyle{elsarticle-num}
They provide different \bibliographystyles, but none of them is correct. I have been spending days on the internet trying things and I thought, I could maybe get a nice answer here.
I read all the previous discussions about this, but none changed what I needed.
EDIT: I cite using
(\cite{Engstrom2013a})
and in the benter code hereib file it looks like this:
@article{Engstrom2013a,
abstract = {Control of the global epidemic tuberculosis is severely hampered by the emergence of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. Molecular methods offer a more rapid means of characterizing resistant strains than phenotypic drug susceptibility testing. We have developed a molecular method for detection of rifampicin-resistant M. tuberculosis based on padlock probes and magnetic nanobeads. Padlock probes were designed to target the most common mutations associated with rifampicin resistance in M. tuberculosis, i.e. at codons 516, 526 and 531 in the gene rpoB. For detection of the wild type sequence at all three codons simultaneously, a padlock probe and two gap-fill oligonucleotides were used in a novel assay configuration, requiring three ligation events for circularization. The assay also includes a probe for identification of the M. tuberculosis complex. Circularized probes were amplified by rolling circle amplification. Amplification products were coupled to oligonucleotide-conjugated magnetic nanobeads and detected by measuring the frequency-dependent magnetic response of the beads using a portable AC susceptometer.},

Well, I have only
\bibliographystyle{model5-names}installed on my system (so please check the available bibliography styles by your own for the needed display of informations they want -- or better ask them which bibliography style you should use -- they should know best!), but the real culprit in your case is that you have to use commandto get the result they want (please see the
pat the end of\citep).With the following complete mwe
you get the wished result:
