• No 'Look inside'.

• Can't be found by a search for 'LES'.

More generally:

  • Please make sure all Bibles, commentaries, dictionaries etc can be found by their common abbreviations. This isn't exactly the first time a search hasn't turned up the result it should have turned up.
  • Please make sure that all product pages for Bibles include [easy to find] information about what canon the resource is based on. 
  • Please also tag those product pages with that canon, and include those tags in the left column, so that one can filter for shorter and longer canon Bibles.

    I support all of those requests, although I consider the first one the most important.

    I've opened a case for this.

    I've also informed Marketing about the other issues. Thanks for the report.

    fgh, will you explain what you mean by “canon?” Are you referring to the textual tradition individual Bible translations are based on?

    I'm referring to how many books are included, and their order.

    1. Modern Jewish canon / Hebrew Bible
    2. Septuagint
    3. 'Evangelical' canon (66 books)
    4. Catholic canon (includes the most common Deuterocanonicals/Apocrypha)
    5. Original Lutheran & original Anglican canon (essentially the same as the Catholic canon, but with the Apocrypha placed after the OT)
    6. Various Orthodox and Oriental canons (include even more Deuterocanonicals)
    7. New Testament only

    Currently one can filter for Bibles that include only the OT or only the NT, but it can be very hard (especially for us non-natives) to figure out if 'whole' Bibles include the Deuterocanonicals or not, and in that case how many. And some translations are printed both with and without, so which version is it Logos is selling? 

    As a minimum, it should be absolutely clear on the product page what exactly it is one is buying. Ideally, it should also be possible to filter for Bibles without and Bibles with Deuterocanonicals/Apocrypha.
