Orthodox Lectionary

I can not pin any of the 3 Orthodox lectionaries to my Home page even though I click the check box and click add. From Verbum training, I had made a lectionary layout that when I click on it crashes Verbum. 

I am not sure yet if this is a bug or what. Does it work for others?

    The problem is that certain lectionaries are not up-to-date at the moment. Lectionaries that don't have an entry for today will not show up on the front page. Faithlife is working diligently to update those lectionaries and build them out for plenty of years so that this problem won't happen again any time soon.

    But it will happen again in some peoples life time.  Rather than building it out for many years wouldn't it be better to first get the year that is already behind out to users so they can complete their regular routine and the resources they have purchased function with the software correctly. Then move on to stage two and build it our for many years, and then onto stage 3 during those many years rebuild the whole architecture of the how it works so that it doesn't ever have to be rebuilt during again - and yes I do respect that stage 3 is a complex solution hence why I am suggesting it be conducted during those many years.

    But surely the essential thing right now is to get users back into using the software as the expect to use it as quickly as possible while taking due care to get the first stage done correctly.

    I'm waiting to see anyone solve this thorny problem. Those who have come to closest hit the wrong year and suddenly narrow their coverage.

    Nothing in your entire message contradicts any aspect whatsoever of what I actually wrote. [:P]

    FWIW We've got the three Orthodox Lectionaries rebuilt and are doing some external testing with people familiar with them. Assuming their testing checks out we plan on pushing out the updated lectionaries in two weeks.
