What am I doing wrong in this? I type in Esarhaddon and I get one result found in 2kings 19:37, when in actuality, I should be seeing 3 results, for instance in 2kings 19:37, Ezra 4:2, and Isaiah 37:38.
Here's a screenshot…
"-" is your problem.
Try "person:Esarhaddon" or "Esarhaddon OR Esar-haddon"
Got it. Thank you Aaron for steering me straight on this. Very helpful.
I'd of assumed (incorrectly) that the little clock would fix it (narrow search vs broadened … .removal of dashes etc). Vs substituting letters (as an earlier post issue).
It is unique though, that the Logos Search will not pick up both spellings of Esarhaddon and Esar-haddon and list them, for example, we can do a search for God and list the search as god and it will pick up both, Gen 1:1 and Ex 7:1. Is there a particular reason why this is so?
person:Esarhaddon should pick up all spellings as it is looking for a Logos supplied tag. This works even across languages.
Looking for Esar-haddon without the tag requires a computer parsing routine that only recognizes common forms that work for many words e.g. it would recognize Esar-haddon's as the possessive is standard (actually I'm not sure how it handles proper nouns but the principle is correct). But alternative spellings are outside normal parsing rules.
Thank you M.J. Smith for your explanation. You are light years ahead of me, so I'm happy you and others are about to clarify things.
I am a disabled user of the Logos free edition.They have it in the dark mode, how do I get it back on ?
After a recent windows 11 update, and Logos application update, the behavior of ref.ly links changed so that the web app is being displayed in addition to the the desktop app. I checked the "Apps for websites" system setting and there isn't an entry for Logos. I ran the script on the forum that edits the registry to fix…
I would like to be able to compare more versions on the text comparison tool on the app.
I have La Biblia de las Americas on my iPad, but can't find it for my desktop (Mac). When I go to the store, it just gives me the price. Could you tell me how this happened and how I can get it tabbed on my laptop? Thanks.
I am not from a liturgical church (no disrespect those who are), but have found a good use for the liturgical day section in sermon manager. I put things like communion, elder installation, child dedication, baptism, etc. on that day to remind me we are doing that on that Sunday. The problem is when I move a sermon to a…
