Now that I have been upgraded to Logos Pro, is there a Logos Pro Forum Section?

If not, will there be one soon?

I might be blind and just did not find it if there is one.

   Thanks!

    Since a LP Subscription impacts Web, Desktop & Mobile behaviors It may be confusing to some to have to cross post to get a response.

    I don't see a need and agree that providing one might lead to confusion.

    What would be discussed in this forum that would not fall naturally into Desktop or General?

    In fairness to the OP creating one Would follow in Logos past practice. After all, they have separate forums for each of the older Logos "versions" and the current Desktop forum is, from appearances, meant for discussing L10.

    EDIT: Actually what I would expect them to do would be to move all of the current threads to a New Logos10 forum and then keep the DeskTop forum as the default Forum for L11/Premium/Pro/Max DeskTop related questions.

    They do indeed; and for me that is a bone of contention.

    We have a huge list of atrophied forums that are almost never used and when they are they are usually used by mistake.

    It would be better if, once the latest version has become the free version, if Logos locked the old forums and moved them to sub-forums of the Desktop Forum where they could be used for reference but not for posting.

    Often the first reply is the recommendation to update to the latest version and see if the problem persists.

    On that basis, it would be useful to post one's subscription tier as well as the version of Logos. The version is always needed and we usually search Feature sets, for example, to get something working in Search. Now we need to know the subscription tier whilst non-subscribers may be advised to subscribe to get a feature!

    Hi Mike,

    I can almost agree with that, almost...

    I just think that someone who cannot, for whatever reason, upgrade to the newest version of Logos, should have a version specific forum where they can ask for help. I agree that they should, if at all possible, upgrade versions, but in my "devils advocate" example they can't. That's all.

    There might definitely be a section once the official release happens in the fall!

    I agree with your theory but not reality. Very few people who answer questions have access to the older versions so they tend to ignore questions in the old forums. If the questions are in the current software, more people will see and respond to them - either from memory or by indicating how the current function previously worked.
