Why mendeley 1.15 freezes on writer 5?

Dear all,

I recently upgraded to libreoffice 5 but since then the plug-in for mendeley 1.15.1 desktop does not work: it inserts the reference but then freezes at the formatting reference step. the rest of the document is writable, simply the reference is not inserted.

In addition the references are converted to plain text every time I close the document, so I have to re-insert the references over and over again.

Any tip?

thank you

G
