   I typo'd - my production server is using php5.6. The latest version of php the production server can use is 7.2.18. I can't move my site off php5 until Jresearch works.

   I am developing a site design that will run on php7.2, and we use JResearch for our staff pages and publications site.

   Thanks for your efforts!

   I redownloaded the latest build and installed it. I made the following changes to the BibTex.php file and my bibtex file uploaded almost successfully.

   administrator/components/com_jresearch/includes$ diff BibTex.php-orig BibTex.php
   421c421
   < $arr = split('{', $entry);

           $arr = explode('\{', $entry);
   

   630c630
   < $authorarray = split(' and ', $entry);

       $authorarray = explode(' and ', $entry);
   

   642c642
   < $tmparray = split(' |~', $author);

               $tmparray = explode(' |~', $author);
   

   The Type appears as in the Backend as JRESEARCH_ARTICLE{CHHATWAL2019. The value for pubtype in the database is "article{chhatwal2019". The line in the BibTex file is "@Article{Chhatwal2019a,", so the process cut the tailing character off the end of the citekey, as well as failing to put in the correct field. Not a big deal, but I notice it also lowercased the citekey from the original text.

   Any thoughts?

   Got it. Remove the escape from line 421.

   $arr = explode('{', $entry);

   Pubs now upload as expected.
