Add folders to the prioritized resource list!
Okay Logos, you want us to buy lots of resources. Guess what? You've succeeded. But with a great library comes a great prioritized resources list. This becomes a pain to manage. Can we have folders please? I'd love to be able to see more clearly in this long list.
It's a pain to find a book I already prioritized in the list when I want to make a change (for instance, priorization limits)!
It is also a pain to have to drag a newly prioritized resource across the long list to place alongside others that are like it. Folders would really help.

Agreed. Or is there a fundamental revamp in sight?

At first, I was in agreement, but on second thoughts, folders may make it even more difficult to manage this list.
I agree we need to revamp this prioritization feature while retaining all that it does today.
We should be able to export (and backup!) this list somehow. My list is very long and far too complex to re-create if I were to ever lose it due to a database corruption. As a result, I take screenshots of my prioritization list, page by page.0 -
Couple thoughts. I, too, have a long priority list. As long as one didn't have to use folders, I don't see why there is a problem.
If the folders were to be used for different purposes/settings, it would be nice to allow a resource to be in multiple folders (a study bible is also a commentary, for example)
With folders, one would need a way to easily search for a resource. I used the trick of prioritizing a resource- a new priority would go to the end of the list; an existing would be highlighted. That does need tweaking though- if there are multiple pages in the priority list, currently the highlighted resource might not be on screen.
Thanks

My prioritization would be much simpler if I could prioritize collections as I can prioritize series. This would need to include being able to apply advanced prioritization. I use advanced prioritization to get around the problem of Logos not providing an easy way to see a reference in a book in the preferred/intended translation of the author.

How do you use advance features for prioritizing?
My list is long, but I have bible harmonies and stuff like that in there. I don't really like the idea of folders becauase then I am forced to prioritize things a certain way…. I do think it should be revamped though. Why hasn't it ever even been considered?0 -
Here are two examples of my setting study Bibles to the translation for which they were written.

Very interesting can you please explain in more detail what this does and how to best use it? I've seen this but never found what its for.0 -
What it says is that independent of whatever my highest priority Bible is, that the South Asian Bible Commentary is to use the NIV translation, and the Africa Study Bible Notes should use the NLT translation. Logos has training on advanced prioritization.
