Minimize cognitive dissonance in tagging

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Example from deSilva, David A. The Lexham Old Testament Apocrypha: A New Translation. Edited by Douglas Mangum, Lynsey Stepan, and Kelsey Matthews. Bellingham, WA: Lexham Academic, 2023. It is my impression that the "average member of the target market" won't know instantly why chapter 6 becomes chapter 1. In some resources, you have shown both references which helps the user recognize that there are multiple possible references that map to each other independent (at a higher level than) the translation verse maps. Please show this double mapping consistently.

Learned something (again).

I tried to replicate. My standard bible (to the left, nr. 1) is the german catholic EÜ. It shows only Bar 6,1 for the passage. Second column shows the german Factbook entry, which gives on top only the bible passage, no definition. Below, you find links to bible dictionaries. Insightful is column 3 in which is explained that the LXX tradition differs from the Vg. Which brings me back to column 1: As familiar with the catholic translation, which follows the structure of the Vg, the "Letter of Jeremiah" doesn't stand out. Instead, seeing the (german translation) of the LXX (column to the right), we have a biblical book which starts at chaper 1.

Maybe Factbook could carry these informations as first entry?

So I tried to make a PB, but as other users affirm, there are no Milestones for "Dante" or the "Divina Comedia" present. Today, I wanted to check on the Author Datatype list coming from the Logos Wiki: Which…

Notes: More Robust Indenting
When typing in Word, or even in the Notes Feature on the Logos Desktop App, when you start an indented number list, and you go to the next line then tab out, it goes from 1. to an a. indented from the position of the 1. (I hope this makes sense). I would love it if there was a way to add this to the Mobile/iPadOS version…
Addition to iOS app
In the iOS app there is a “back button” that will take you to the previous passage that you were at. It would be nice to also have a “forward” button so that you could go back to where you were before you hit the back button.
Missing/dead links interim improvement
On a frequent basis there is a forum thread on the issue of links resulting in a debate on links to different editions of the work. I suggest the following to minimize this reoccurring debate. Exclude milestone references and bibliographic references. If the user owns the edition referred to in the link, links as usual. If…
