I've had to re-build a couple of Personal Books (PB) that I use... but after the re-build, in L10, the Personal Book Builder does not seem to recognize the abbreviation for Exodus as being "Exo".  I know it was recognized in L9.  Did something change?

xn = Christan  man=man -- Acts 11:26 "....and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch".

    Did you miss a period? Exo.

    The problem may be in how you typed the reference ... rather than in the "Exo" part (e.g. did you have "Exo 20:3" or "Exo 20.3" or "Exo 20,3"? )

    I just did a test, and in my L10 test PB using "Exo 20:3" did not work, but "Exo 20,3" was recognized as a link to the Bible (most likely because of my language setting to German in program setting.

    Here's what I found.... If you look up "Bible Book Abbreviations in Logos Bible Software" on the internet... You'll find that "Exo." and "Exod." are acceptable....  so I experimented and found that "Ex" also works.... that's what I used. Hey....if it works, don't fix it.... right?  lol

    Thanks all.

    Edit: Something did change.... I checked a couple of my other PBs and sure enough, "Exo" no longer works....  worked in L9 but not now... have to change all "Exo" to "Ex"... bummer!

    This certainly sounds like a bug of some sort, especially if it worked in L9. I will take a look into this and see about getting a case written up.
