L/V 10+ Tip of the Day #199 Homepage Today in Church History

MJ. Smith

Another tip of the day (TOTD) series for Logos/Verbum 10. They will be short and often drawn from forum posts. Feel free to ask questions and/or suggest forum posts you'd like to see included. Adding comments about the behavior on mobile and web apps would be appreciated by your fellow forumites. A search for "L/V 10+ Tip of the Day site:community.logos.com" on Google should bring the tips up as should this Reading List within the application.

This tip is inspired by the beta testing.

On the Home page in the Explore section you can find Today in Church History cards.

General information:

• Factbook tags cannot be assigned so that section is empty.
• Liturgical date resources that are type:"Calendar devotional" lack the index required to appear in either the Daily Devotionals or Saints sections.
• Books that are not on the device will not appear. This allows you to control the content of the Daily Devotionals and Saints sections.
• The Daily Devotionals and Saints books will appear in priority order allowing you to control the sequence in their respective section.

1. Today in Christian History Click on any part of an entry to open Factbook to the appropriate entry. I find no documentation on this data.

3. The Daily Devotional link to the appropriate date in the book,

4. The Saints section is not tied to the Sanctoral cycle; the resource itself must be tied to the sanctoral cycle. The book title expands to show a preview which links to the actual resource.
