[ACK] Tagging/Metadata Error in the Calvin/Luther Sermon Collection

Today I received the John Calvin & Martin Luther Sermon Collection. When I ran a passage guide search I noticed that the results under the Sermon section of the Passage Guide were appearing differently than my other sermons.

Since Logos recently changed the way the way that results appear and are now arranged by the sermon giver (I personally wish we had more sorting options), all sermon givers names are arranged alphabetically by first name. However, in the new collection both Calvin and Luther's sermons are arranged with last name first.

I'm sure it's just my OCD and probably not a huge deal, but if it's possible for Logos to make changes for consistency I'd be grateful.

    Thank you Bradley. I (and my OCD [:)] ) appreciate it.

    I do hope the problem reported was this, not

    Already in your screenshot there are five guys named "John".

    Just sayin'

    Hi NB.Mick,

    I was asking Bradley if they'd re-tag it so that they were consistent with the others. I agree that having it by organized by first name is not ideal (as you've mentioned there are already 5 Johns), but until they make the decision to organize them by last name I suppose we're kind of stuck. Either way, if I know that they're organized by first name, even if I have 5 Johns to go through, that's where I'd look for "John Calvin" however with these resources tagged the way they are I'd have to look for "Calvin, John."

    While I'd prefer to have all resources arranged like "Calvin, John", I'd prefer consistency with one method even more.

    Ryan,

    I fully concur with everything you wrote and it wasn't my intention to indicate otherwise, just that when they fix it, they should contemplate to fix it into the right direction. I too prefer consistency within the arrangement, either way they sort them.
