Sermon Builder
I was watching a video, and in it they were using Sermon Builder. This intrigued me and I tried to use it, but it appears I don't have it. It then appeared you have to have the Silver package or above.
I'm not sure what I have, I can't really tell by the "About" section. Here is what it says I have. Can anyone tell me what I have? I think I have Logos 9

What does it say under the Feature Set heading

What does it say under the Software heading?

Thanks Steve
This tells us you are running the latest stable release of the Logos engine and the last base package / denature set you bought was for Logos 7.
Does that sound about right?

I believe I'm on Logos 9. At least that's what it said when it was upgrading

Graham.... I have somewhat the same question... How do I know what "package" i.e. Gold, Silver, Bronze, etc. that I have?

The numbering system has changed recently - well nearly a year ago!
The Logos 9 / Logos 10 etc designations are for base packages / books and features and are distinct from the software version you have. As per your screenshot, your software version is 27.2.21 which is the most recent stable release.
When you refer to upgrading, was this recent? For a definitive answer on the latest base package / feature set you have you would need to contact Customer Services (or you may be able to get that information from your order history - an option under your profile on logos.com)
If you are interested in what features you have access to, you could go to https://www.logos.com/compare/featuresets/Logos%20Feature%20Sets and click the Hide features I own button and then scroll down and see what features you don't currently have licenced to you.

It's one of those difficult questions to answer. Does it mean which is the highest level package I have ever purchased, which is the highest L10 package I have purchased, what mix of levels of packages have I purchased across different traditions, or something else?
This is important as purchase history for many of us, myself included, covers all of the above and so it's difficult to define what the question really means.
If you are interested in which features you have / don't have access to you could look at the website I linked to above.

Sorry, didn't mean to be so vague. I meant, how can I tell which package I have?When I show info I get "Feature Set" and "Base Package Library" But no "package" such as Silver, Bronze or Gold. How do I find which of the three that I have?

I think if you follow Graham's link and then look at the overview tab it will tell you which packages you own and don't own.

Sorry - I was trying to make the point it's a difficult question to ask let alone answer.
Taking Logos 9 as an example, I purchased seven different library upgrades and a feature set upgrade.
My Library upgrades included Standard Bronze, Reformed Bronze, Anglican Gold and Orthodox Silver
So, for me, it is a difficult question to answer. And I think Logos have decided to not try and show the answer in the About Logos section as it could be rather difficult to determine.
For me, it doesn't really matter as I buy library upgrades for resources and feature upgrades to get access to features. The designation - Gold, Silver - etc is less important to me.
What were you hoping to do with the information?

Thank you for the information.
What I am really interested in is the Sermon Manager and it says that the Silver Edition is needed. Am I correct in assuming that I don't have the Silver Edition (since it is grayed out in my software)?
How can I tell by the chart on the link you gave me what it takes to get Sermon Manager?

Yes, that is correct

I tend to use the "search on a page" feature (Ctrl/Cmd-F) and, in this case, use the search string Manager
And, yes, this shows you need the Silver Feature Upgrade or higher.
But it's also very helpful to look at the product description page - https://www.logos.com/product/197452/sermon-manager - which lists the packages in which the particular product is included
These include:
- Logos 10 Preaching Suite Feature Upgrade - https://www.logos.com/product/229974/logos-10-preaching-suite-feature-upgrade
- Logos 10 Academic Feature Upgrade - https://www.logos.com/product/228478/logos-10-academic-feature-upgrade
Depending on what you already own these might be better / cheaper for you
Or some people prefer to get access to these features via a Faithlife Connect subscription - which would get you the full feature set for $149.90 per year
