Maybe it would be nice to have a guide how to get from [1] to native
support at [1]. Is there something like that? If not I can try to make
the switch and write it down.
Having set the native support, I get an error saying
LaTeX Error: \postnotedelim undefined.
It comes from a line in my preamble:
\renewcommand*{\postnotedelim}{\addcolon\space}
I have the following options set for Biblatex:
style=authoryear, firstinits=true, natbib=true, backend=biber,
doi=false, isbn=false, url=false
My guess is that I don't need to specify natbib and backend. But the
error occurs with and without it.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Biblatex is loaded after the user defined preamble. So all biblatex-
related code should be embraced in
\AtBeginDocument{%
...
}

Which bibliography processor do you have set? I had it set to automatic. Setting it to biber worked. Oddly enough it continued to work after setting it to automatic again. "Automatic" only does the right thing if you use native biblatex support. Otherwise, it will select BibTeX, since LyX thinks you use BibTeX. It uses Biblatex according to [1]. I know that native support for Biblatex has been introduced in 2.3. So will I have to change my documents where I used [1] somehow? You have to change it in order to use the native support. But you still should be able to continue with the workaround. Maybe it would be nice to have a guide how to get from [1] to native support at [1]. Is there something like that? If not I can try to make the switch and write it down. Yes, it would be nice to document issues there. Note that the workaround was never officially supported, so the transition might entails some caveats (although not too much hopefully). Okay, got it to work and will document my experience at [1]. I noticed that the BibTex Bibliography dialog's Content field is blank by default. Either this represents some "not set" value but then this should be explicit and an option in the drop down menu, or "all cited references" should be set by default. Also the dialog title should now be "Bib(la)Tex Bibliography" as is the menu entry Insert > List / TOC > Bib(la)Tex Bibliography... By the way the usage of upper case is inconsistent. Either the T should be lower or the l and x upper case. There is no upper case usage in Document Settings > Bibliography for Biblatex but for BibTeX...

Fixed. > Also the dialog title should now be "Bib(la)Tex Bibliography" as is > the > menu entry Insert > List / TOC > Bib(la)Tex Bibliography... Fixed. The dialog now displays either "BibTeX Bibliography" or "Biblatex Bibliography", as appropriate. Jürgen signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Re: Have you tested 2.3.0beta1?
To my experience, Lyx generates now this error when you have inserted a bibliography in the document but you do not have any citation in the document. This check is a good idea, but it should generate a warning instead of an error IMHO.
