Bug: NT331 Romans

Today I received an email about a resource from Moo, Encoutnering Romans. The email stated that this book is used x number of times in the course and that I would benefit from havng it in my library.

The problem is I do have this book in my library, but when looking at the course it says I do have it and that I don't have it. See screen shot above.

Kenneth,

there was discussion of this in the forums before. It seems, Logos produced a second version of the book, with the same content but without pictures, IIRC. The core reason seems to be some of the problems publishers create these days (if not, even worse, a photographer of one of the pictures sued the publisher over missing electronic distribution rights). That you see both is not an error, but a reaction of Logos to treat owners of both resources alike. The missing functionality is Logos "knowing" that there are several editions of the same book and showing one link open if you own one of them.

Thanks NB.Mick

i owe the version with the pictures in it.

i guess Logos needs to add the highlighted reading portions to both resources then, not just one of them. I guess right now the highlighted readings are only with the version without the pictures.

I own it, too (but not the mobileEd course, unfortunately). The thread where it came up (starting with a picture of exactly the same location you are at) is here: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/81469.aspx

If you are talking about "popular highlights"? I don't think Logos can distribute them accross different resources. But I see them, e.g. on pages 23/24:

Correct, we only added the highlights to the version we currently sell. Unfortunately you have the older version, and we will probably not go back and add the highlights to that version. However, we have added a feature to the Mobile Ed. readings that will make the highlighting irrelevant. Going forward when you click on a reading link in Mobile Ed. you should see indicators letting you know when to start and stop reading:

These indicators work whether you have downloaded the notes file highlighting the readings or not. We will still be including the notes files (mostly so we can keep track of what readings we are including) and sharing them in the Faithlife groups, but you will be able to see where a particular reading ends just by clicking on them from the course.

I know about popular highlights. I am not talking about them.

For each mobile ed course, Logos makes a note file available, for the required and supplemental readings. These are highlighted files that highlight the portion to be read. Since they are not showing up in the version of Moo that contains the pictures, it must be that they show up in the version of Moo without the pictures. That is what I was referring too above.
