BUG: Book of Concord tagging and Logos URL coding issues

MJ. Smith

Trying to get the correct references to build a reading cycle is proving impossible. I'm using Tappert.

1) I can find no format for a dynamic text reference that will select the Prayers and Duty sections of the Small Catechism - separately or together. Latest failure (as compiled):

{{dtext ref= BookOfConcord:Small Cat.: Morning and Evening Prayers | filter=bible-text-and-verses-paragraphed}}
{{dtext ref= BookOfConcord:Small Cat.: Table of Duties | filter=bible-text-and-verses-paragraphed}}

2) In the Large Catechism the "Explanation of the Appendix" lines in the Commandment sections, appears to be included in the preceding paragraph rather than the following paragraph for the 1st commandment - reported as typo

3) Despite the Large Catechism Commandments selection starting at heading for 2nd commandment and ending at paragraph 60 of 77 the URL includes the entire section rather than the selected portion: logosres:bkconcrd;ref=BookOfConcord.Large_Cat.:_Commandments,_art._ii;off=0;ctx=~The_Second_Commandment$0A49_$E2$80$9CYou_shall_not

4) additional problems with Preface section of the Large Catechism not yet documented.

And yes, I do have 9 out of 12 days working ... however, the plan is for a full year.

I am heading out the door, but you may want to look at the older editions of explainations to the Small Catechism I have released for how I have reverse engineered it.  I seem to recall some problems, but definitely got the Table of Duties portion separately.  I think my problem was with Grace at Table...

Will check back this thread when I get back tonight.

My experience is with creating links in pb's for this - not in creating reading cycles, so some of the format may vary a bit. But I seem to recall that it is a bit picky about spaces in there.  At times both to save typing and to avoid typos I would use the Roman numerals for the sections of the catechism rather than the names...

"BookOfConcord:Small Cat., I" would be The Ten Commandments

"BookOfConcord:Small Cat., II" would be The Apostles' Creed

"BookOfConcord:Small Cat., III" would be The Lord's Prayer

"BookOfConcord:Small Cat., IV" would be Baptism

"BookOfConcord:Small Cat., V" - Confession

"BookOfConcord:Small Cat., VI" - Lord's Supper

"BookOfConcord:Small Cat., VII" - Morning and Evening Prayers

"BookOfConcord:Small Cat., IX" - Table of Duties

X - Marriage Booklet

XI - Baptismal Booklet

Quick experimentation shows that either "Small Cat., X" or "Small Cat.: X" would work, as do Arabic numbers.

3) Despite the Large Catechism Commandments selection starting at heading for 2nd commandment and ending at paragraph 60 of 77 the URL includes the entire section rather than the selected portion: logosres:bkconcrd;ref=BookOfConcord.Large_Cat.:_Commandments,_art._ii;off=0;ctx=~The_Second_Commandment$0A49_$E2$80$9CYou_shall_not

I think you want Large Cat.: Commandments, art. ii, par. 49–Large Cat.: Commandments, art. ii, par. 60 . It seems to get confused if you have the header in there... (Again, I often would put in the number of the major part of the catechism to save typing and typos instead of "Commandments")

4) additional problems with Preface section of the Large Catechism not yet documented.

Too many prefaces!!! There is Large Cat., Preface as well as Large Cat., Short Preface .  Is this your problem?
