Fun with Logos Verbum on

Playing with the new Logos I discovered that SET VERBUM TO NO and SET VERBUM TO YES still exist and they do something. Not sure what they do yet but the minimally function. Since we can't subscribe to both Logos and Verbum I am playing with this tool again.

So far so good on the forum with tags.

    Interesting, it disappeared for a bit there. Was this changed in the most recent update?

    That's pretty great! What do these commands do, I wonder?

    Yes, we didn't lose the ability to run both pieces of software what we lost was the ability to run all the features of both. So, for example, if you own the Verbum feature set, switching to Logos will not give you Igniter Media or SermonAudio.com as it did in the past. I haven't actually try it but that is what in theory happens. For Tips of the Day, I've counted on being able to switch back and forth to answer questions. I've not had to pay attention to the details of when I have to switch vs. when I assume it is better to switch.

    @MJ. Smith , if I recall correctly wasn’t there a feature where you could essentially make Logos consider the deuterocanon in certain features as well as enable saints of the day?

    Im considering switching over to Verbum for a few reasons but I still have Verbum 9 installed for when I’m feeling nostalgic and I can’t rip that bandaid off quite yet.

    It’s looking like it’s just time to do it though, unless some of the things I’m wanting to do can be done in Logos again.

    I honestly don't know … I was so used to switching between them, that I never really tested what I could get Logos to do as Verbum is my usual base.
