Custom Coded Bible Reading Plans
There are a few Bible reading plans mentioned in the WIKI which work just as they are. Still others are complex enough to require hand coding, such as the M'Cheyne plan which is now coded into the Reading Plan (thank you!).
Please limit your posts to just the name of the reading plan, and it's brief description. Please Let general discussion of a plan be in another thread.
Thank you.

ESV 40 (big picture) day reading plan http://community.logos.com/forums/t/21393.aspx

The ecumenic bible reading plan of the German "Ökumenische Arbeitsgemeinschaft Bibellesen". It's 2011 version you'll find attached 6648.BLP_2011.pdf
The reading plans of ÖAB have one text per day and break the continuous reading with a Psalm on Sunday. They will lead within four years through the NT and within eight years through the OT, the NT reading somewhat follows the church calendar (nativity stories around Christmas, passion around Easter). This ecumenic reading plan is followed by Christians in (at least German speaking parts of) Europe from various traditions: roman catholics, mainline protestant as well as evangelical free churches. There are dozens (or hundreds?) of books every year that provide exegetical or devotional input to these readings.
One source of popularity may be that this reading plan is featured in the "Losungen" (watchwords, the daily texts of the Moravian Brothers).
I contemplated to create this Reading Plan with the instructions on the wiki page, but haven't had much progress so far. Actually I intended to do the watchwords as well, but these are two or more individual verses per day, i.e. a lot of manual input and XML editing...

[Y][Y][Y] I'd like to see these as custom Reading Plans in Logos! The Daily Watchwords are a major component of Christian spirituality and Scripture contemplation all over Europe and in many other places around the globe. Thinking about this, it would be really great to have the Daily Watchwords (along with everything the print editions contain, meaning not only the OT and NT verses but the reading plans etc. as well) as resources in Logos 4. If there are other Logos users interested, I could write the publisher and make a suggestion here in the forums.

Do these repeat every x-number of years or are they always new? If they repeat they could be made into lectionaries.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

There's a new "Daily Watchwords" edition every year, as the OT "Watchwords" are actually chosen by lot annually (which happens in Herrnhut). The NT verses are chosen intentionally to match or complete these verses or show other aspects of them from a NT perspective, while the oecumenical reading plans follow a specific cycle of several years. And then there are prayers and hymns meant for every single day, a Bible verse for every week etc. So the reading plans could be made into lectionaries, but not the "Daily Watchwords" as a whole - I guess the only way making them available in Logos for being used in the way they are meant to would be by being published as a 1:1 edition for Logos by the Moravian Church itself.

Any ability to add 1 single proverb a day would be great. As far as I can tell there is no way to do this in Logos. The proverbs tool already separates them all out, so it doesn't seem like a huge stretch to custom code this into a reading plan.

Yes please!
If we could set up our reading plans based on number of chapters per day instead of number of days until finished, then some of these would work a lot better.
Good Idea! [Y]
This seems to be an essential aspect of reading plans that is not there. Ability for pericopes per day/session would be amazing as well!

Note that you are responding to a thread that's nearly as old as the pyramids. The current implementation of Reading Plans in L6 allows for custom plans (so the ÖAB bible reading plan discussed above exists as a shared plan, for 2015 and 2016, and the Moravian Daily Texts are available as a PB file you can build as your own daily lectionary, even with dynamic text to select the bible of your choice, also for 2015 and 2016).
Have joy in the Lord!
