    Is Verbum Fundamentals new? I've never noticed it before, and can't remember any official announcement.

    Unfortunately it doesn't have dynamic pricing. The few resources that it has, that I don't have yet, are looking very interesting.

    Yes, Verbum Fundamentals is new and was created recently to take part in the upcoming promotion Donald outlines above along side Logos Fundamentals.

    Is the Verbum Fundamentals Version 8 or Version 7? The only one I could find is Version 7. If it is version 7, can you upgrade the core software to version 8 when it becomes available?

    God bless,

    BTW...another exciting sentence using Verbum and Fundamental would be:

    Verbum now has Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma by Ludwig Ott available for purchase!

    I couldn't find that either, only Logos Fundamentals 7.

    If it is version 7, can you upgrade the core software to version 8 when it becomes available?

    Yes, of course - why would they disallow that? Still it seems strange to train new users in the outdated version to later on have them experience the disruption of look and feel that goes with a L7->L8 upgrade.

    Have joy in the Lord! Smile

    Yes (in anticipation of free Basic upgrades for Logos 8 & Verbum 8)

    Just to be awkward (I'm sure I'm not the only one): if I've bought Logos and Verbum upgrades, would I get one of each of the fundamentals to give away? I own full feature-sets for both and I've bought base package library updates for both. I've already promised Logos fundamentals, but not sure if I get both or a choice or...?

    It's absolutely fine if I don't get both - it's already very generous. Just trying to get the lay of the land, is all.

    For clarity's sake, do any of these promotions benefit Verbum Now members who have/do purchase a Verbum 8 library but not a Verbum 8 feature set?

    The idea is not for you or me to get it, but for us to gift it to a current non-user. And I personally am happy about the resources and functionalities in my Logos & Verbum installation, so for me it goes:

    Yes, I'm aware of the purpose of the promotion. I was just hoping to also pick up a few extra resources I didn't already own inexpensively as I did when Logos Fundamentals came out.

    The codes are for only Logos or only Verbum Fundamentals, not both.

    So to clarify, if I purchased a Logos 8 package, I will receive a code that can only be used for Logos Fundamentals and not for Verbum Fundamentals, and if I purchased Verbum 8, I will receive a code that can only be used for Verbum Fundamentals and not for Logos Fundamentals, correct?

    I bought both a Logos and a Verbum BP, and the Verbum one was my first Verbum BP purchase.

    I guess I'll just wait and be surprised about what I'll receive...

    That was going to be my next question...if someone has purchased both Logos and Verbum 8 packages, do they get two coupon codes, one for Logos Fundamentals and one for Verbum Fundamentals?

    Correct.

    But what if you purchased Verbum 8 and Logos 8 packages... I am not asking for multiple gifts, just a cold most appropriate for the person.... I got emailed a Logos code but Verbum would fit the person better.

    Excellent.

    As you know, I purchased multiple Logos 8 Libraries and a Verbum 8 Library in the same order. Since my earlier post, I've received a code via email for Logos 7 Fundamentals. For clarity's sake, should I expect to also receive a Verbum 7 Fundamentals code by email at some point? (No rush.)

    I think I miss understood.  Having purchased a Verbum 8 library first, and then some other ones, I thought I would be getting a $100 coupon code plus a code to give to a friend for Verbum Fundamentals.  The e-mail was the code for Verbum Fundamentals only … I think … the link takes me to a very sparse web page that says "Redeem code."

    Oh well. [:|]

  • Donald Antenen (Logos)

    Deacon Steve,

    The $100 was sent to first-time base package purchasers (those who hadn't previously owned a Verbum or Logos package). The upgrader discount was already much higher than the first-time purchaser. Sorry for the confusion!

    If you give the code to a friend, they will receive installation instructions after redeeming the code on that page.

    Thanks for the reply.  I was the one confused.  Glad you are offering a discount to first time base package purchasers.  Also grateful for the code to pass along.  [:)]

    Thanks Donald and everyone at FL/Verbum for the cool surprise!  I am waiting to hear back from someone at my parish to see if she would like the copy and will offer it to other members of the ministry in which I am involved if I don't hear back from her.  Is there an expiration date on this offer that I should be aware of? 

  • Dan Francis
    Dan Francis Member Posts: 5,335 ✭✭✭

    It has been stated there is currently no planed expiration. But I would stay say it is likely prudent to get it into someones hands in the next few months.

    Thank you Dan.  Yep, I'm hoping I can get that code to someone in the coming weeks -- this (free) copy of Verbum 7 Fundamentals has more features than the Catechism Collection I started with in Logos 4!
