Parallel Resources in a Collection Not Showing

Sharon Hillam

I have created two collections. One is My Bibles and the other is My Commentaries. I've ticked "show in parallel resources" on both. Yet I'm not seeing either "list" in the parallel resources dropbox list when I'm in a Bible or commentary.

What am I missing?

Sorry I can't show a screenshot, but whenever I try to use the snipping tool, I lose the parallel resources dropbox. All it shows is a single list of the system default parallel resources.

Strange

When I replicate what you are describing I get the results you would expect as per below:

Can you post some screenshots showing your Collection definitions?

I'm not going to bother because I think I've figured it out. I MUST be in one of the resources that's INCLUDED in the collection before the entire collection will be listed as a 2nd column in parallel resources. 

For testing, I only included four commentaries and was NOT in one of them when I was trying this before. But when I opened Matthew Henry's Commentary on the WHole Bible (it's one of the four in the collection), it worked!

And...I just tested the same with a Bible collection. Bingo! That's what I was missing!

Thanks! [:)]

That is correct - glad you figured it out

There are some more reasons why resources might not appear in https://wiki.logos.com/Parallel_Resources#Why_don.e2.80.99t_I_see_my_Collection_in_Parallel_Resources.3f
