Adding Catholic Topical Index on iPad Verbum

Now it is there. Is it a matter of certain resources having to be used before they appear?

I am sorry, but I have no idea what you are asking. Can you try again?

I just want to be able to add particular resources to the drop-down list when I use the search function, e.g. Catholic Topical Index. As it is, I get "All," or a list of random resources that may or may not include what I want to search. I have not found where I can search something (add it to the resources to be searched) in the Search function.

At this time the Verbum app does not support the Catholic Topical Index, like the passage guide does on the desk top version does. 

I hope it does in the future. 

I am not near my iPad at the moment... did you try opening the resource you want to search first, or are you trying to search resources you haven't opened?

An option is to create collections of various resources on the Desktop.  When you are connected on the ios device you will see your collections as options to narrow down your search.

Yes, this is a quite frustrating design. I have had the same problem on the Android apps.

I have a work-around. Though it's a little involved.

First launch the Logos/Verbum iPad application and make sure you download the resource you're interested in searching.
Once it's downloaded quit the application.

Next turn off the wifi on the iPad and then launch the Logos/Verbum iPad application again

Go to "search" and from the drop down menu choose that resource. Go back to "home" in the application and then quit the application.

Turn wifi back on and then launch the application and now the resource should be selectable when searching.

One can also see only the downloaded resource by putting local: at the top of the Library window.
