Hi,

in the latest Jabref (3.7) there is no "DOI to Bibtex" websearch entry.

Best,

Just try to create a new entry. Press CTRL+n

Hello,

it is not vanished. It was moved to New Entry -> ID-Based Entry fetcher

The DOI retrival has been moved.
Go to Bibtex --> New Entry
and select "DOI" as ID type. Then copy the doi into the ID field.

To speed this up a little bit, you can do the following:
a) Either use Ctrl+N (replaces the "Bibtex --> New Entry" step
or
b) Select an article in your database and just Ctrl+V your doi there. If the doi is valid, it will immediately create the respective bibtex entry. A very neat way of doing things - however, it does not work, if the doi is not valid (is sometimes the case with papers that have just been published) or if you did not copy the complete doi.

Ah, thanks!
