Cannot navigate to Bible verses using Chinese book names (e.g. 箴言 4:9)

I’ve noticed a bug related to using Chinese Bibles in Logos.

When navigating or searching for a Bible verse, Logos does not recognise Chinese book names.
For example, typing simplified chinese “箴言 4:9” does not work.

Instead, I must type the English book name, such as “Proverbs 4:9”, even when I am reading and working in a Chinese Bible.

This is confusing and inconvenient for users who primarily use Chinese, especially during preaching, teaching, or live Bible navigation.

Expected behaviour:
Logos should recognise Chinese Bible book names (e.g. 箴言, 创世记, 马太福音), or allow both Chinese and English book names to work interchangeably.

Actual behaviour:
Only English book names are recognised when navigating to Bible verses.

Thanks Bernhard, it works!

got another question, there is no word count in chinese sermon, while in the english sermon i can see the word counts, but not in chinese sermon. Could you help?

thanks.

Bernhard

No idea, sorry (I would just guess that Chinese word count, as opposed to character count, would need extra programming, as you don't have spaces between words). If you don't get an answer here, try the Chinese part of the forum.
