Irrelevant line in search results
The two searches returned the same results except for the erroneous Topic section. I expected the search to do a bit more and pick up data from the commentaries on the lectionary.

Missing feature
Probably as a subsection of the Lectionary section of the PG or as a separate section "Search Lectionary Commentaries" (parallel to the Textual Search section of the BWS, we need a list of the liturgical date links to the following resources: * Lectionary Reflections by Jane Williams * The Lectionary Commentary by Roger E.…

Need auto-complete/dropdown select type feature on data type searches
1. To get a base line baseline I ran a basic search on Crossan - count 2455 2. Recognizing that he edited some volumes of Semeia, I refined the search and cut my base to 2415. 3. I then ran what I thought was a valid search using the data type author. I don't think a count of 1 is a realist result. Obviously, my memory and…

Missing feature
I would like to see a Sermon section that draws from the historical sermons that we have in our resources. That is what I would use the most frequently. Just a reminder: I also want to see a link to The Text This Week - I use it often as do many other forum users.

BUG: Alpha 5 Mac Curent Layout Blank
The title says it all UPDATE: Apparently, this is just a very slow feature. Five minutes after the above screenshot, the current layout finally updated. Unless Logos can improve speed above the current responsiveness of L4 Mac, L5 should not be released. Many Mac users already see Accordance as a viable alternative to…

Source of the data
It would be helpful to know the source of the data in each Guide section to put in the wiki. It would help the user to correctly interpret/use that data they see in similar sections, help them build useful customized Guides, and know which resources are not used in the Guides.

FREEZE: Alpha 5 Mac
Opened a simple layout, but then L5 displayed the pretty colored pinwheel @ 12:12:42. The log shows no activity for a full six minutes, then a flurry of entries until 12:19:18 and then no activity. In all this time, the pinwheel continues to spin. Activity Monitor show one core @ 100% with RAM use @ 1.14 GB. The pinwheel…

Typo reporting
The place that I run into the most typos is in the drop down box for text or in the search results. We need to be able to report these typos through the Search. Because one has to do a separate search to find the error in the text to report a typo, most of these I don't bother to report - which is not good.

Feedback: "Quick Outline" and "Outlines" in Sermon Starter Guide
Quick Outline is currently showing in passage-based SSGs, but surely it's designed for topic-based SSGs (where it doesn't show). It's an excellent section though - even if it's unsuited to passage-based SSGs in my view. If it is destined for passage-based SSGs, it needs to be renamed, and probably eventually merged with…

Fix Hyperlinks in Guide notes, pretty please....

Probably source problems but
1. Starting a search on Genesis I was offered many options that were missing a space: 2. I then did a search on Genesis2 in which Logos (un)helpfully corrected by adding the space. Usually a correct response. 3. So I added quote marks so that Logos would not autocorrect and found that the problem is that superscripts were…

Search inconsistency/error
When I do a search on <CCC 82> I get the results I expect i.e. references to the Catechism of the Catholic Church paragraph 82. Very nice. However, if It try to extend this to other standard Church documents e.g. <CT 13> the search behaves as if I had entered "CT 13" rather than indicating that no such data type exists. I…

Description of Search fields
When I saw the field "dynasty" the first thing that came to mind was Tang and the Xi'an Stele.

Not that others will blow…

Crash - trying to use an L4 generated shortcut to Biblical Places
I have a shortcut on my toolbar to open Biblical Places. Clicking on it creates a crash. I suppose that might be because Biblical Places has been replaced with another tool (however, see the next post), but it does point out a migration issue that will need to be addressed. 1663.Logos Crash 5.zip

Biblical Places Crash
I installed L5 in the same user account that I was running the 4.6 beta.

I selected 'Biblical Places' at the top of the left side of the panel It crashed.…

Automatic Software Updates
I think I read some other MVP's reporting this earlier... (Thomas maybe?) It's my understanding that updates should not be automatic at this point... however...

A summary of problems in Faithlife.com and Logos desktop interface

Can I suggest that exact matches are placed at the top of the list, certainly before all the…

BUG/SUGG: Desktop app needs mobile's ability to add notes to a highlight markup
