TYPO or Question: dynamic text for Read the Fathers 7 year reading cycle
Using
LLS:6.50.1
2012-01-20T21:31:08Z
ANF01.logos4
Or
LLS:6.50.101
2012-01-20T21:46:47Z
ANFRC01.logos4
I am not finding what I expect. So ---
What is the correct syntax for the dynamic text link for these three items individually?

Don't have those resources, but, make sure you have the proper index activated before highlighting and control-alt-c. That way you can switch between author types and pages. And that volume of ECF has LOTS of indexes...

Using my wiki article, the correct format for the epistle of Ignatius to Polycarp is:
- {{dtext ref=ApostolicFathers:IPoly 1}}
If you want to specify a particular version, it's:
- {{dtext ref=ApostolicFathers:IPoly 1 | res=anf01}}
- {{dtext ref=ApostolicFathers:IPoly 1 | res=apfthtext}}
Hopefully the article will help you work out the other two, but if not, let me know. I'd need a Wiki link to the epistles in question, as I don't have a resource that has a datatype that supports the other two works. ANF01 doesn't have a datatype that supports that work.

Mark - the issue (as I understand it) is for the specific (later) Syrian edition of Ignatius...

It isn't Logos' normal practice to create different datatypes for different editions of the same text. In fact, you wouldn't want that, because that would stop you from comparing the two editions, or switching between them with parallel resources. That means the datatype reference works for both the Greek and Syriac texts. You then control (if you can) which edition is shown by using the res parameter (or through prioritisation), which is what I was trying to say, above. Of course, if two editions of the text come in the same resource (as in ANF), then that won't work. You'd need a separate resource that only included the Syriac version.

I thought from http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/anf01.v.viii.html that it included 2 of the three textual traditions...

I edited my post to correct my error, whilst you were posting.

Actually, what I would expect is something like:
- IPoly = Ignatius' letter to Polycarp all editions
- IPoly.V - same in Vossian recension (short)
- IPoly.S - same in Syriac recension
- IPoly.L - same in long recension
In this particular case, it means that a bit of the Reading Cycle cannot be dynamic text. I'll wait to see how frequently this sort of issue arises. Schaff has all three but runs the long & short parallel and the Syriac separately.

Yeah, you could have two datatypes for each resource - or a complex mapping scheme as is done for Bibles. But I guess that's a lot of extra work, and in most cases not necessary. Personally, I'd prefer to have the different editions split out into different resources.

I meant to imply a single datatype with an optional suffix.

This would be acceptable to me.
