Personal Book Builder & Sermon File Addin

Rev. Dr. Lloyd S. Wicker

So I've combed through enough of these threads to know better than to ask about the status of the Sermon File Addin for Logos 4.  But I'm wondering if someone on the inside at Logos could answer this:  

If I go through the effort of integrating my sermons using PBB, will I regret spending days (maybe weeks) doing that later when this new web interface comes live?  I'm very comfortable with the PBB for the simply task of building "books" out of each sermon series...however, I don't want to put in all that effort only to find out that I get to do it again differently to make my sermons searchable in Logos 4.  

Thanks in advance for whatever guidance you can give Logos insiders!

You are wise to ask. Let's keep bumping this up until we get some concrete "official" answers.[C]

Hey Logos Folk,

I thought that this was coming out last year, from an upcoming developments page which used to be on the Logos site.

Sermon File Addin was one of the best features in earlier versions of Logos, when will it be out for Logos 4?

Thanks

• Sermon File (this was on the "missing features" list)

We were planning on replacing this with something different, but have been convinced otherwise. We are presently re-specifying the feature for inclusion in the 4.x time frame.

I agree Tim. I miss that very much. PBB is way too complicated with syntax, etc. It was disappointing when it was not part of Logos 4 and up.

Ken,

you're replying to a very old post. Your reference to complicated PBB syntax also sounds like you are thinking of the L3 PBB. The L4 Personal Books compiler takes your run-off-the-mill Word *.docx and makes it a Logos resource. From version 4.6a the compiler also produces the Sermon File indexes - I don't know if there's a video showing this, but there must be some threads with examples and the Release Notes give some technical info about it: http://wiki.logos.com/Logos_4.6a

Hope this helps,

Mick
