"Not on this device"
Just out of curiosity, I went to check what's "Not on this device" on my Logos 8.3 Beta 1. Surprisingly, it is showing 4 such resources, but they also all show as "Downloaded"... Any ideas why?
Bug?: FL Connect Preview Resources
I'm not sure how 5 Connect resources for February were downloaded (I have Auto Download set to NO for new and updated resources). They have temporary licenses, as expected, but they are listed in Library as "Not on this device", and the resource previews supported that with an invitation to "Download now". After I clicked…
Suggestion for Updated Resources List
I suggest that there be some way of setting off the "Library resources updated in the last 7 days" from the rest of the Resources Updated list. Possibly a line, or different font color.
Bug: Open Annotation command does not show note
When I select text with a note or highlight and choose Open Annotation from the Context menu, the note or highlight will not be shown if I have a notebook open other than the one used for the resource. Here is an example of a note I had taken in the Bible on Romans 8:30 some time ago. In the Notes tool, I had recently been…
Course not showing up on home page
I have tried several ways to get a course to show up on the Dashboard on the Home page, but without any success. Initially I watched the first few videos, by going directly to the video resource. Then I tried opening the course in the Courses Tool and watching the first few videos. Still, the course does not show up on the…
Note filtering suggestion
When I limit the view of notes to a specific resource, I would only like to see a list of Notebooks that actually have notes on this resource. The number of notes in each Notebook seems to refer to all notes in that notebook. Most of the notebooks have nothing to do with the resource I have limited the view to. This…
Note system undo feature
There does not seem to be much of an undo capability in the notetaking system. If I move a note to a different notebook, I cannot change my mind without specifically selecting the new notebook from the dropdown list. the same is true of the color and other features. If I want to revert to the previous text in the note, I…
Bug: Lock up when viewing video (8.3 Beta 1)
I watched the first video in the Mobile Ed course NT317 Book Study: The Gospel of Matthew. After starting the video, the screen area above the video controller went white, but the audio played to the end. When I clicked on the close window button, Logos locked up with the wait icon circling. I had to kill the program with…
Request: Selective Download for "functionality resources"
I'd really like to see a way to control which RIs, grammars, and other datasets get downloaded to my hard drive. I'd be fine if these showed up under a special facet in the library... Please at least remove the .lbsrvi file(s) when the associated bible gets removed (this wouldn't require any UI changes). At the very least,…
Suggestion for Cloud Resources Search
The Cloud Resources search results apparently display in "Ranked" mode. This is more like the Library Results section of the Everything search than the Library Resources section. I think the "By Count" view would be much better in the Cloud Resources section if we can't have options. Ideally, we should have all three views…
Beta 1: New Notes Features
Good to see the return of these features. They work as expected, including creation of Labels.
Bug: Cloud Resources "not on this device" count
I was surprised to see something listed as "not on this device" before I removed anything...

BUG: Recently Updated Resources
When I click the indicator at the top right after an update and select the resources updated in the last seven days, I would expect the library to open with that filter. Instead the library opens showing all resources.
BUG / Question: Canvas Tool Info cards
Please see this thread. I am running the most recent Beta, so I posted here. https://community.logos.com/forums/p/178343/1031030.aspx#1031030
Bug with prayer card.
I opened Logos today and found that the Prayer Card on the homepage reported that I had completed my prayers for today. I clicked on the card which opened the Prayer Panel and indeed there were no prayers for today. I returned to the Home Page and refreshed using F5 and todays prayers appeared. Clicking on the card…
8.3 beta 1, bug: Cloud resources search doesn't work
Nothing happens in the "Cloud Resources" section when I perform an Everything search. I checked for network activity, and there's nothing relevant. It looks like no request is sent to the server.
Bug: Topic section states "no results"
The Topic section of Topic Guide states "no results" when it is collapsed. When clicked open it has results!
Bug 8.3 beta 1: Cloud resources and Power Lookup
You suggested trying to break Cloud Resources. Too tempting! Issue #1 I opened a power lookup using a TDNT datatype. It gave three results (TDNT, Abridged TDNT and ESL). With the power lookup still open, I removed TDNT and Abridged TDNT from my library. Result: All three resources were removed from Power Lookup. Expected…
Last updated visual "bug"
The final line needs some visual separation ... it looks like just another resource.
CRASH when switching Bibles via Parallel Resource Sets. Windows 8.3 Beta 1 (8.3.0.0001)
The app suddenly closed a few seconds after I used the Parallel Resource Sets icon to switch from The Good News Translation to the New International Readers Version. The Good News Translation: LLS:1.0.160 2018-04-20T21:24:01Z GNB.logos4 New International Readers Version LLS:NIRV 2014-10-08T23:36:57Z NIRV.logos4…
BUG/ SUGGESTION / REQUEST
This came up several times during the 8.0 beta. The facets in the notes tool always open with all expanded. Please, please, please make it so that they either open with all facets collapsed, OR allow it to remember the settings when last closed. I think one of these should be the standard for all panels that incorporate a…
Resources updated notification in Logos 8.3 beta 1
Well done for adding resources updated notification into the status bar! However, it looks as though there might be a discrepancy between what is reported there and what is shown in the library - in this example 57 in the notification against 51 (in the last seven days) in the Library (It is possible - but unlikely - that…
Freeze 8.3b1
Upgraded system Friday (MB/CPU/RAM/M.2). Just installed Logos last night. Tonight switched to beta channel and updated. After update restart I see notification circle (1) that shows a number 155 more than total resources shown in library. Curious. When I click on the notification icon, Logos freezes. Logging stops. CPU…
Is There any chance that Denominations and Theological tagging will make it into Logos 8?

BUG: Display of Hebrew results in Search panel
In the search results for LHB, Hebrew letters that contain both a dagesh and an accent mark display a second "crazy little dot" instead of the accent mark. I assume this is the same bug I reported in 2015 in this post.
Bug 8.2 RC 1 - transliterated lemma includes Greek accent
Bug: transliteration pop-up for Greek lemma has two transliteration choices. One has Greek accent over u while the other does not.

Can't find button for adding labels to a note in 8.2 RC 1 (8.2.0.0014)
I saw the button for adding labels to Notes in 8.2 Beta 3 (8.2.0.0006) (it was in the lower-right corner of the note), but I don't see it in 8.2 RC 1 (8.2.0.0014).
Courses tool ... Same course ... different places?
Not sure how this has happened. I was starting to work through CS101. The courses tool crashed in that the course navigation was blank and the main panel was not responding. I quit and then restarted logos ... which then suggested that I had not even started CS101, either in the home page or in the courses tool. I…
Bug 8.2 Beta 1: Search results disappear
Do a search, drag result to a Tab, switch back to Search whose results have now disappeared: Caveat: do have a number of Search tabs open in several windows. Keep Smiling [:)]
CRASH Logos 8.2 Beta 3
Improvement in Notes means persistent crash in L8.2 Beta 3 when trying to add a note: After upgrading to B3 I made a note and selected a blue-colored note marker to see the change advertised in the change notes: I expected this blue note marker to be used in the subsequent notes. Instead, I now have a persistent crash…

B4: Focus issue with notes
Hi there There is a focus problem when adding a note. To repro: 1. Open Notes & a Bible next to one another in the main pane 2. Select some text from the bible, right-click and select "Add a note" 3. A new note is created but the cursor is not present in the note section to allow immediate typing. Note: this is in contrast…
Bug: Link Sets do not survive customization
This is much akin to Bug - Link-sets do not survive restart. 1. Start with standard Lectionary layout under Home Page Layouts e.g. open lectionary 2. Add link set B to RCL (my preferred lectionary) and Connect the Testaments: A 365 Day Devotional 3. Go to Home Page Layouts and use "Replace with current layout" on…
Crash with Logos 8.2 beta 3 on Windows 10
I've just involved a reading plan - with its associated layout - and selected a block of text and right-clicked on it with the intention of adding a note to a notebook The contest menu never appeared and Logos crashed Log below 8154.Logos.log Thanks, Graham And it seems to be consistent as doing the same thing again caused…
Bug: Wrong Library Count (unlicensed resources)
Collections tool shows the correct count. . The difference of 52 is due to books with expired licenses As you can see, they now have a Permanent license. And delete unlicensed resources had no effect. I lost the first log where I counted 70 "deleted unlicensed", but after a restart I got this log: 2656.Logos.log It has no…
8.2 b3 Info panel delay
I have my info panel set to click and have only 1 or two sections expanded. When I have wifi on but with an exceptionally slow connection, there's a LONG (a couple seconds) lag before the panel updates after a click. When I simply turn off my wifi connection, the update is instant. These sections are NOT internet…
Possible Bug on Home page cards
Hi I am posting a link to another forum thread because I am not sure if the other place is monitored as closely. I cannot seem to put the devotion Quickstart layout onto the home page. https://community.logos.com/forums/p/177579/1026578.aspx#1026578 It may be something that both Graham and I are missing.
Crash Logos Mac (8.2.0.0006) right click add notes to lectionary
I thought it was only one resource (Catholic Daily Readings) that adding a notes (right clicked on "Year C") to did it but probably any lectionary, I've tried Episcopal and Daily RCL and they all crash. Just a couple three days ago it didn't happen, so I suspect it was the latest Mac Beta update (10.14.3) but on the last…
Logos 8.2 Beta 3 Multiply Resource View
After choosing the "Stacked" option, I am finding that the Multiple Resource View, reverts back to "Columns" view. In other words, it will not stay at this selection once you navigate away and back again.
Highlights not Corresponding
My highlights have quit showing in other resources such as NASB95 and NA28GBS- I have separate palettes for studies I do- I.e. Study in Revelation. When I hilite in NASB it does not show in NA28. Has this behaviour gone away.
Logos 8.2 Beta 3 Wrapping in Popup
Is there a way to have this popup, wrap, rather than run off the page as shown at the bottom of the attached image? Preferably, it would be good to have the information on separate lines, rather than on one line which separates them with a semi-colon. Just my suggestion. Thanks.
Index stuck at 7%
Last week index got stuck on indexing one resource at 7% so I did a full index and that indexed everything over the next 18 hours. So, some resources updated yesterday and the index got stuck at 7% again. So, did another rebuild index and now it's stuck at 7%. Logs are attached, anyone know why? 8103.Index Issue.zip
Verse of the Day Media Marker not displaying as expected
This is with Logos 7.9 beta 4 on Windows 10 As the first screenshot shows there is a Verse of the Day slide for Matthew 22:37-38 but no Verse of the Day marker is shown in the Bible As the second screenshot shows the Media marker is enabled It's not specific to the ESV - I see the same in NIV - but it does seem related to…
Bug: Fuzzy search ignores limits
It may always have been thus ... I have not used fuzzy search much before ... but it certainly looks wrong to me! To be honest, the hits that it has found seem to reflect the order of the words in the paraphrase rather than reflecting a closest match. Am I missing something?
Note Labels Facet?
Thanks for adding in Labels in 8.2b3! Are we getting a filter facet for labels?

Christmas Is for the Sorrowful (Matthew 2:16–18)
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Except when it’s not. Christmas has a way of magnifying life’s joys. We take stock of them and set aside time to enjoy them. Like a magnifying glass, Christmas time not only spotlights what’s already present but enlarges our perception of it. This includes life’s joys—but also life’s sorrows. For many, Christmas can be one of the most painful times of the year.

What Is the Great Tradition? Is it Too Great to Be True?
The Great Tradition refers to a set of doctrines, theologians, and creeds that have held common consent across the ages. While the phrase the Great Tradition is new, those who use it believe they participate in a tradition that extends back to the apostles. The term is thus a boundary marker for a body of teaching that Christians should retrieve today for the sake of renewing the church. This article explains the origins of the phrase, its present use, and its value for Christians today.
