Cross reference footnotes - iPad and iPone

Matt Chocinsky · 2025-07-07T14:06:20+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Why are all my cross reference footnotes suddenly only in NASB, no matter what version of the Bible I’m in? I mainly use ESV, but when I click a cross reference footnote, it is in NASB. This happens when I am using KJV and AMP…all cross references are in NASB. If I click on the cross reference, it will open up a new NASB tab instead of the Bible version I am studying, which is annoying.

Furthermore, after I click on a cross reference when I am reading the red letter words of Jesus, the red letters will all turn to white. I have to close Logos and open it again for the red letters to reset.

any help?

Is the NASB your preferred version?

Have you attempted with a differentversion to check if the problem persists?

Those are my quick guesses … and I might be wrong. But I'm attempting to help and this is what occurred to me immediately.

Please let me know is this solves the problem … partially.🙂

Blessings,

Thanks, Tony!

I switched my preferred Bible to ESV (like you recommended), and now all the cross references in all my other Bible versions are in ESV. It was never like this before but with the NASB. How do I make it so that the cross references are in the same version of the Bible I am reading? For instance, I do not want to study in the Amplified Bible and then read the cross reference in a different version. If I actually click (with my finger) on that cross reference to take me to that specific Scripture, then it takes me the Scripture but in the ESV. Why would I want that? I want to go to the cross reference in the Bible version I am reading. I would think there is a setting somewhere that lets you read cross references in the Bible you are studying. Logos never used to do this before.

Also, Logos is still changing all the red words of Jesus into white when I put my finger on a cross reference. I have to close the app and open it again. This is really annoying.

I appreciate your help and your thoughts, Tony!

Blessings!

Hi Matt,

Perhaps I might not have understood you correctly.

I'm posting three snap-shots below which might explainto you what I do and perhaps this resolves your problem. If this fails, I suggest you formally write to LOGOS for help (if none have a solution to your problem) for … I'm just another User, and merely trying to be helpful.

That said, here is how I achieve what I think you're attempting to do.

Step 1:

I open my preferred Bible (say NASB95) which was what you originally had in a half window pane. )The Bibles normally open using half the screen by default.) See Pic. … 'Step 1.' below.

Step 2:

I duplicated it and dragged the duplicated bible to the other half the Screen. And I changed the Bible to 'Christian standard Bible'. At the extreme right hand side top of the dynamic bar tab are 3 vertical dots which when clicked will display … at the the text at the second line, "Send hyperlinks here'. Enable that. A circle with a dot at the centre will appear beside the Name tag of the resource (Christian Standard Bible) in this instance. See Pic. … 'Step 2.' below.

Finally …

Step 3:

When I click on the Left hand pane, at the superscript 'b' which is the hyperlink for the Word, in the NASB at Jn 1:1, I see 2 hyperlinked cross references … Jn 1:14 and Rev 19:13. If I hover over Rev 19:13 and click that hyperlink, the CSB goes to that reference and opens it. See Pic. … 'Step 3.' below.

Let me know if that solves your problem please.

All the best.

In Christ Jesus,

Tony.
