How to change a complex reading plan's text

OK so I made a reading plan for a small group: NaKH yearly, reading through the Hebrew NaKH in a year.

In making this I had to first make a separate reading plan for each of the books we are reading so I could adjust the pace based on the difficulty of the book (Joshua is much easier in Hebrew than Proverbs!)

Then I combined them all in to one plan.  After this I had to delete all the smaller reading plans b/c my Logos kept thinking they were all active and i was flooded with reading assignments.

Anyway, now there is a snag.  I'm using BHS, one of my friends is using BHW and the 3rd friend whom we just convinced to get Logos Bronze, is using his newly acquired LHB.  So when he clicks on the reading plan I made, he's told he doesn't have permission for that resource (I'm assuming this is the BHS).

So I made a copy of my plan with the intent to change it to LHB for him and another copy for my other pal to change to BHW. OK so I have 2 questions:

1-Is there a way in the future when setting up these reading plans to just generically say "a Hebrew Bible" since the verses are all the same among these 3 "versions."

2-Is there a way I can change this to other versions for my study partners without having to recreate those myriad of readings plans which I deleted and recombining them into 1 master reading plan again? Note there is a way to do this if you have a very simple plan, you can just edit the plan and change to the other bible vesion; but it seems in this compound reading plan that option is unavailable.  I was wondering if there might be a way to export (to something other than Outlook), then do a block change, then import the plan back?

    Jeremiah, you can restore all the delete plans by going the trash icon in the very bottom left of the Docs window.

    It is not easy with Custom Reading Plans, as they are designed to accommodate readings from many resources. AFAIK, you have to change every session. Either add the same reading(s) from a different resource or delete the session and replace with reading(s) from the new resource.

    However, you might try using generic readings (Type in a Reference) as this will use the preferred bible of each user (meaning they may have to alter their Prioritization).

    Oh thanks Kevin!  I already made the new plans but now I know.

    OK I'll play around with that method for the next plan.

    Mike,

    I was referring more to the "level 14" and is this an administrative action or something?

    Thanks for the help :)

    "14" is a semi-continuous number or not so fool the spam detector which doesn't believe real people repeat themselves ... I'd hate to guess how many bump messages I've initiated.

    Ohhh thanks MJ! I hope the algorithm checks how many posts you have and can give you a confidence score from that as well!
