I have Tozer's Evenings With Tozer: Daily Devotional Readings in my Logos Library. It is a "type: Devotional". Can I change it to "Type: Calendar Devotional"? If so how do I do it?

Thanks

    The "Library Type" must be "Calander Devotional" for it to work. You have an older version that is tagged as "Devotional." The link in NetworkGeek's post above will get you to the newer version.

    To use the version that you have, you could just scroll to the beginning of the next day when you finish your daily reading. When you open the devotional the next day, it should open to where you left it when it was closed.

    There are actually two, as my picture shows. I suspect you have the older version. It only has a Page index, so it can't be a Calendar Devotional. The newer has a Day of Year Index, which is why it can be a Calendar Devotional. You can't change that, the index determines calendar devotionals. Maybe get the newer version?

    This is the newer one, it's a Logos Research edition while the older is a Reader edition

    Thanks for the info. I do have the one you have highlighted. Maybe I can set it up as a reading plan. Just don't know how to set up to follow current date.

    You do not have to set up the newer devotional. It will automatically open to the current date. If you want, you can add the devotional as a new card to your dashboard by selecting it from the "Daily Devotional" category. Click the circle with the plus sign, located near the top righthand side of the desktop dashboard to get started.

    I tried that but I think I must have an older version of the devotional. The pull down does not list that edition of the devotional as an option.
