Exclude from "Cited By"

Is there a way to exclude lectionaries from Cited By?  It's not helpful to see the same reference coming up year after year in what is essentially a verse list.

    If you're referring to the Cited By tool, just click the right-side 'X' on the Lectionary heading. 

    But I suspect another Cited By?

    This is what I get.  There is an x for your books, but no subdivisions other than your books and "open books"

    I'm having trouble posting a screenshot, but I'll try a description.

    I have only two divisions, "open books" and "your books"

    Not everything in them is lectionaries, but it doesn't surprise me that the same reading comes up every three years, so I don't need to see it 4+ times (from each lectionary).

    I'll try to make a post that just has the screenshot.

    You need to use the paperclip or the Amber icon beside it to post a screen shot.

    What level of Logos are you using? free, starter, bronze . . .

    The "Cited by" tool has the option to add collections so that you can restrict the resources included in the results via what you include in a particular collection (compare the information in the F1 Help information for "Cited by").  With the use of collections you can restrict what "Cited by" should include in its search, such as works of a particular author, a particular type, etc.   Thus one would start with the question: Which works should "Cited by" include in its search?

    I have starter plus the disciple upgrade.

    I got the pic to attach -- I was trying to paste in, but it wouldn't show after I hit publish.  I saved the screenshot, then it worked.

    I hadn't thought that it may be a feature level difference.  Feature sets are a bit difficult for me, as a beginner, to figure out the differences and values.  If that's all that's wrong I'll get there eventually, but for now the budget tells me to put up with scrolling past lectionaries.

    Thank you.

    That gives me a direction to explore.

    IF you have the Collections tool you can create a collection that excludes the lectionaries.

    An example of a collection rule that would include ALL of your resources EXCEPT lectionaries would look like this:

    "* ANDNOT type:lectionary"

    You can then use the ADD dropdown in the Cited By tool to search that collection.

    If you don't want ALL of your resources, then tailor your collection rule to include the resources you do want.

     Note in the below screen shot that the Lectionary category is missing.
