HELP! my memory cache is full

No - I don't mean my computer's memory, I mean my memory - the one that uses my brain for storage. With the resources that appear in the predefined "collections" used in the Guides - definitions, topics, etc.- constantly changing as resources are retagged or bugs fixed, I am at a total loss as to how to make sure I've checked all my related resources without doing a bunch of work twice. PLEASE make the implied collections visible so that I can subtract them out of personal collections and determine what I really need to check.

P.S. It would also help me in knowing how to use the standard guide sections more effectively.

Once they've fixed the bugs that are preventing some resources showing in the Guides, it should be straight forward to create your own collections that mirror the "implied" collections. We're promised the bugs will be fixed in the next beta.

Sherlock Holmes (A Study in Scarlet): "I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose. A fool takes in all the lumber of every sort that he comes across, so that the knowledge which might be useful to him gets crowded out, or at best is jumbled up with a lot of other things, so that he has a difficulty in laying his hands upon it."

Is it that easy to check the tagging?

I must have slept through the lecture.

Somebody please 'splain what an implied collection is.

As for your title, I can't remember where I put my cash either.

MJ's talking about the subsets of resources that are used in various sections of the guides. Not all sections use all your resources, but instead they choose a subset based on the resource type.

This is what we do now know (I think), that the following sections use the following "implied collections":

Thanks - this generally matches my understanding. The one difference that I saw glancing through is that I believe that the cross-references also includes entries from the study Bibles. Initially, however, items like the Topic Guide definition section did not include all definitions from the eligible sources - they were noticeably adding tagging which added definitions. This was a typical situation that I needed addressed.
