Where can I found out about using other 'styles'? I am just using
whatever the default is, I presume.
I found that:
For 'unpublished' items in Jabref, put the URL in the 'note' field.
For 'techreport' items, use the 'title' field.
For 'misc' items, use the 'howpublished' field.
but none of them are clickable and none of the URL fields from Jabref
are displaying for 'article' or 'inproceedings' types. Almost every
paper in my .bib file has either a URL or a DOI. From you say, it's a
limitation in BibTex, rather than LyX.
If anyone can suggest a not too painful workaround that works now, that
would be be much appreciated. Polluting the 'title' and 'note' fields
with URLs seems like a poor solution at this stage.

This is my preamble:

\usepackage{lmodern}

Will BibLaTex work with my current tools like Jabref etc, or is it a
whole separate thing?
