Re: syncing faith life reading plan with Logos 5

By Graham Criddle in Logos 5

Hi Terry - welcome to the forums.

I'm struggling to understand exactly what you mean. Can you clarify things a little please?

Terry Voss:
I have followed the directions to sync these 2 but when I am in Logos 5 it is not doing what your tutorial says.

To which direction and which tutorial are you referring?

Use Fatihlife and Logos 5 in 2013

Posted: 02 Jan 2013 07:10 PM PST

Faithlife 
works seamlessly with your Logos 5 base package. It keeps you connected
with your community and puts your entire library at your fingertips.
Connect with the people you care about through Logos 5 and Faithlife’s
reading plans!

Here’s how:

1. Log in to Faithlife.com
   and choose the Faithlife group that you want to participate in. Make
   sure you’re “connected” to the group reading plan. By connecting on
   Faithlife.com, you’ll sync your reading plan with Logos 5.
   
   
2. Open up Logos 5 and navigate to
   the home screen. Your reading plans will show up on the left side.
   Click the reading for the day.
   
   
3. You’ll be sent to the “read”
   view, with the biblical text on top and your commentary notes on the
   bottom. You’ll notice a “Start Reading” header directing you where to
   start your reading for the day. (Your view may vary based on your Logos
   panels.)
   
   
4. As you scroll through the day’s
   reading, you may be directed to other Scripture references. Logos 5
   links you to the next section—just click the reference.
   
   As you read, you can share thoughts and make Community Notes by:
   1. Highlighting the text and right-clicking
   2. Pressing  “Add community note”
   3. Choosing which Faithlife group you would like to post to, and adding your thoughts and comments
      
      
5. Once you complete all your readings for the day, click the “Mark Read” link. This checks off the reading for the day.

Tips and tricks:

As a base package owner,
you have access to your entire library. As you come across interesting
content, you can now share a preview of that content to Faithlife.

1. Highlight the content you want to share and right-click
2. Press the green Faithlife icon
3. Choose the Faithlife group you want to share the content with
4. Add any thoughts or comments, and then post
   
   
5. The content will be posted in the specified Faithlife group’s news feed

It’s not too late to make a New Year’s resolution that will feed your soul. Create a Faithlife group, invite members, start a group reading plan, and dig into the Word in 2013!

Terry Voss:
but the faith life notes are not anywhere to be found

What
is the reading plan for? Assuming it is not for the FSB notes then it
wouldn't bring them up. The reading plan is just for the resource not
for anything associated with it.

Terry Voss:
It doesn't seem to work at all like it did in just faith life.

Do you mean in "faithlife" as in the community or in the "faithlife study bible app"?

Terry Voss:
Also
I thought anything that was a note in the faith life bible would open
but instead it is saying I don't own those so of course it won't open
them.

This
is how the FSB works. It provides first-level information which is
accessible to everyone and then has the option of going deeper. Some of
these deeper references are to the "Lexham Bible Dictionary" (which is
included with the FSB app) and others are to a range of encyclopedia,
dictionaries and other resources. Users have the option to purchase
these resources to enable them to have access to this further
information.

Terry Voss:
 I have lots of resources I do have the silver version with the cross grade upgrade. 

The
references in the FSB notes do point to some resources which are not
included in the packages you mention - such as "Anchor Yale Bible
Dictionary" and "Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels". Resources which
you don't own are indicated by a "lock" symbol.

Hope
this helps but if you can clarify further what you are expecting and
the problems you are having we may be able to comment more fully.
