I am the Senior Pastor of a Calvary Chapel and I have a number of personal books I created that I would like to share with my School of Discipleship Students and Assisting Pastors. I would like to be able to do that across all platforms.
You can share the source files of the PB (the docx-format), but everybody needs to build the PB by themselves, there is no functionlity to share compiled PBs in Logos right now - the idea of sharing compiled PBs was around some 10 years ago but did not materialize.
You can share those docx-files on any platform you like, but you probably know that PBs currently work only on desktop (I think it's the most-voted feature request for years to change that). If you want to retain control over whom you give access to your PB source files, the in my mind ideal solution would be to make a Faithlife group for that. Of course, if you want to freely share those to everyone interested, you can simply drop them here in the forum.
Hope this helps.
Then a suggestion… I have found where the books are stored, but the name of the file is too confusing to figure out which books are which. Could you use the naming structure we create instead of remaining the PB with a code? Or give us an idea of how to name the books to fit your naming structure so we can figure out how to share them?
the cryptic names are not the problem - the PB-log will tell you which source file made it into which PB. If you don't want to look into logs: simply rebuild a PB and then you look for the newest resource in the folder: that's the PB you just built. BUT: it makes no sense sharing it with others; since they don't have a licence for this book, they can't open it. Here also Logos would need to build a way of sharing the license (or of building license-free books that could be imported by everyone via the scan command). one additional benefit of shared PBs would be: you can link from one to the other.
I really appreciate how the Logos mobile app lets me swipe between tabs and seamlessly pick up where I left off. I often read and take notes on my phone, and when I reopen the app, everything is just as I left it—even when I switch between multiple resources. Unfortunately, the desktop version doesn’t offer the same…
I just want to say, this was the one reason why I stopped using Logos so much; because the search function did not have the power or versatility to answer questions like "Where does Paul talk about teach sound doctrine and only through God's Word." It could not do that. I could type that into Google and add "Bible Hub,…
If this has already been suggested, I apologize. When pressing Command-T to open a new tab, it would be incredibly helpful if that tab included a search field—similar to a browser’s address bar—allowing me to immediately type the name of a book from my library. Pressing Enter would then open the selected resource directly…
