Random Video Suggestions on Dashboard

Despite having both the Get Started and Help Centre cards turned off, I'm still getting random video suggestions on my Dashboard. Is there is a way to stop this behavior?

And, yes, I know I can get rid of the videos (by first clicking the play button to get the option to close! 😔) but I would prefer to not get them at all.

    The videos are unlikely related to the two new Cards. Without a screen shot, I can't guess where they are coming from - open the menu options for the appropriate Dashboard section (circle plus for the Get Started section, gear for the Explore section) and deselect whatever appears to be causing the videos to appear.

    These are my Get Started settings:

    The Explore section is fully turned off. I have no idea what setting is feeding these video suggestions.

    Same Get Started settings, but I get this in Logos 37 (not in Verbum 37):

    It can only be dismissed after hitting the Play button, when a X Close button appears.

    My apologies ... as I run Verbum, I'd not seen this quirk.

    Same for me; Verbum is behaving perfectly fine.

    Logos, please advise how to stop this. I don't appreciate content being pushed in my face (which is why I have the Explore section of the Dashboard on total lockdown). And I even have to go an extra step to get rid of these video cards 😔👎🏽

    I restart Logos and more fun ensues with the appearance of a second unsolicited card (because two are better than one!).

    Me! Me! I read about that second card. It appears when you have less than two(?) Bibles prioritized. It will go away by itself if you've prioritized your Bibles.

    I had to chuckle because I think my problem may be the opposite, as in too many Bibles prioritized! I have 36 Bibles prioritized; maybe one should have more than two but less than ...? 🤔

    Then you shouldn't see it again. In beta testing, I couldn't force it to appear because I was unwilling to screw up my advanced priorities. If it does appear a second time it should be reported as a bug.

    I'll do that.

    I hope the videos are properly named and enabled as an option alongside the Get Started and Help Center cards. I can see why they might be nice to have there, but placing videos in the options would be both helpful and consistent.

    The problem seems to have fixed itself after a couple of days; I no longer get video suggestions or the "Top Bible is set" card. Not sure how it got 'fixed'; maybe Logos had already cued it to stop displaying after a couple of days. However it happened, I'm very happy to have my Dashboard remain the way I organized it. Thank you, Logos 😊
