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.
Where do I find the setting to increase the size of the texts on a desktop computer?
@Adam Borries (Logos) @Andrew Batishko I installed Logos via its msi recently. There has been one internal update since, but Apps for Websites does not include Logos Bible Study. Consequently, ref.ly links go thru the web app even with the browser fix installed.
I watched a Morris Proctor video today. He mentioned the lemma in passage tool. The illustration he used was that if you are studying a word in, say, Joshua, you would search other Joshua commentaries. But that same word may have an excellent discussion in a commentary of another book. He said that the lemma in passage…
Why are some titles in my Logos 10 library (that show when filtered to "Not Downloaded") not available for download on mobile devices? There's no download icon, or even the little books icon, that shows next to it. An example would be the 1890 Darby Bible (that was the first one in the list just now that I pulled up).
I can see the book in my library but doesn’t open when I click on the open button
