I am using the calendar devotional  "Hear the Ancient Wisdom: A Meditational Reader for the Whole Year from the Early Church Fathers to the Pre-Reformation" in 365 sessions

There was no 29th February meaning I am now reading a day ahead - is there a way to get it back in sync ?

    You just have to skip a day, since there were only 365 readings.

    Hi Justin, what do you mean “skip a day” ? because if I just literally skip a day I would miss content and get out of sync with other brothers that are not using Logos for their reading plan.

    He was responding to a 365 day Calendar Devotional, where one would have to manually compensate by reading the previous day if that keeps one in sync with others.
    From your previous post I see you are on the M’cheyne reading plan ("now moved one day ahead.."). If it is the one selected as M’cheyne Reading Plan (Any start Date), I generated one starting in 2023 and it correctly allows for the Leap Year. You could generate a new Plan with the same start date and then use the right click "Catch up to here"  on Yesterday (or earlier). It is still a 365 day Plan. Note that I am on Logos 32, Windows 11.

    Thanks for this clear workaround; I unexpectedly found myself in the same bind on Feb 29 and was wondering how to correct it, especially as the plan was no longer in sync with my 365-day devotional. I generated a new M'Cheyne plan, started it on Jan 2, and did the catch-up; now everything is back on track, and both the plan and the devotional will now end on Dec 31.
