Bible verse is not populating in Sermon Editor

Michael Wilbanks · 2025-02-28T14:50:10+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

When I type a bible verse reference in my sermon editor and hit enter, the text of the verse is not populating in the editor. Did a setting change or is this a software issue?

If there is a software issue, when will this be fixed, because it is so frustrating and has been going on a while? I emailed support and got nothing back.

I am using a Mac running 15.3.1 and Logos 39.1.6

Correction. I have updated to Logos 40.0 and it still doesn't work.

I am afraid this is an issue that has appeared in the last release or so and a number of people have flagged it. I believe the Logos team are looking into it.

This issue has been resolved. It was decided that Enter should maintain its default function of moving to a new line, even when pressed after entering a Bible reference. To enter a block reference, one must now press Cmd+Enter on Mac or Alt+Enter on Windows after a verse.

This issue just started for me today. I use sermon editor with every sermon & every class I teach. Any word on when this issue will be fixed?

Is this not working for you? What system are you running and what version of Logos?
