Tyndale OT/NT Commentaries

I received and installed the Tyndale Commentaries today. When I went to prioritize the series, I found that the metadata for them does not include any series data.

I wonder --- was this a mistake??? Should we expect to see this data updated in the near future??

Also, I wonder if there is any way to prioritize a series such as this when it is not tagged as a series???

Thanks,

Johnny

I haven't received mine yet so don't know about a work-around. I'm sure they should be treated as a series so this may have been an oversight.

You can report this in the wiki. Take a minute to learn how to edit a wiki entry first if you've never done it before. It's simple.

But you can find them by typing tnt or tot in the in Library or Collections.

Yep, but if they are not part of a series, you'd still have to drag every one of them (one at a time, currently) to the prioritization pane to prioritize them.

How did you receive the Tyndales? It is still showing "Under Contract" for me.

Yep--no series for me either. Missing the Series metadata is a serious problem since I can't easily add those volumes to the preferred list, and therefore the volumes don't show up in the Passage Guide.

Logos, this seems to be a continual problem with new products after they're released. Can it be fixed? (I mean the process, I know the metadata can be updated).

I added this to the wiki metadata page. I hope Logos will push out an update for this right away.

I'm still waiting for my copy. SIGH.

I'm talking in the top six. If I display all the commentaries in the PG, the new Tyndale one is last in a list of fifty (at least for Galatians).

Plus I like to use a collection to limit that long list, and that collection is currently built based on Series names [:D]

Perhaps Logos has delayed shipping it's copies to make sure the metadata is correct first. [:P]

On a positive note: The TOTC and TNTC volumes have useful short names assigned to them which was pleasantly unexpected.

Thanks for reporting this; we'll fix it as soon as possible.

There isn't a way to do this without the Series tagging.

Well...I see a fix now, but the fix needs fixing.

The 1Cor volume has a different Series name than the others, and the 2Pet/Jude volume is still missing the series name:

I just got the Tyndale commentaries via download (even though they are also apparently being shipped with the additional expense) and I do not show any Series meta data.

I don't understand how often metadata updates are done now. It seemed like they used to get sent every time you started up, but now I don't see it in the logs as much.

How about reviews on this commentary series (anyone)? It seems like the books are short so I am wondering if this material would be valuable on top of the sets that already come in platinum? I really get the most out of NAC, Baker NTC, Pillar, and Holman.

If you search on the word Tyndale in the forum you'll find some discussions about the value of these. I think that might be the best way to try to answer your question.

This is so annoying Bob/Dan - it should never occur.
