Finding a previous "Book of the Day"

Bob Schlessman

Alas, my 60 year old's memory is not what it used to be. Earlier this week (don't remember which day) there was a "Book of the Day" on my Home page (can't recall the title). I do remember thinking, "I'll have to check that one out it sounds very interesting." But other tasks kept me busy and I didn't get around to it. (Even the one on my desk didn't help).

My question - Is there a way to retrieve previous books of the day? Can I go back and scan a list in the same manner that I can for blog posts? I know the blogs are a different sort of resource but I was wondering.

Blessings,

Bob

The book of the day is generated automatically by you computer, and it doesn't keep a record of what books are used. You could try changing the date of your computer and re-generating the home page, but I'm not at all sure that actually bring back 'old' books of the day.

The other thing you could try would be to go to %localappdata%\Logos4\Data\{random}\HomePage\ and see if there are folders dated for previous days there. If so, the document-columnx (where x is a number) which tell you the book of the day. (Open the file in Notepad and do a search for "Book of the Day". Then scroll along a bit until you get to a resource ID which will look being with LLS, like this: LLS:12.40.136. Finally, paste that into your command bar to find out what the book is.
