Proverbs Explorer
Has anyone noticed that with the recent upgrade, the Proverbs Explorer now includes proverbial says throughout the Bible, not just the Book of Proverbs. On one hand, that is great to include more, on the other there is not a way to filter by Book of the Bible -- unless I am completely missing that option. Has anyone else figured a work around or a way to filter by book? I'm preparing a Proverbs Series and I'm wanting to filter to just the Book of Proverbs and then add additional filters to create a thematic series through the book. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Clinton - and welcome to the forums

This change was actually introduced quite some time ago - https://community.logos.com/forums/t/122220.aspx?PageIndex=1
There were requests for book filtering at the time but I don't remember seeing Faithlife commenting on it

Thanks Graham for the reference point. I did go and look through that discussion. Others requested the book filtering as well. I have not seen anything from Faithlife on that feature either. Obviously, I can determine which passage is in what book -- but time saved not having to glance through irrelevant search results is beneficial.
A book filter does seem like an obvious feature to include, given how likely it is that users will turn to this tool when studying the book of Proverbs.
This feels like an example of a programmer-driven feature ("Oh, if I just change a couple of lines of code or pull in this other database, I could easily make it do this too…") rather than a user-driven feature.
