Moody Tozer Devotional Bundle are monographs
Sad to say but these devotionals are monographs probably because they came from Vyrso. Is there anyway to get it changed to calendar devotions?

Buying devotionals from Vyrso is a waste of time. Only way you can use them like a calendar devotional is to create a custom reading plan yourself. Buy beware when it comes to Vyrso you are always getting something sub-standard.

Thanks for the link. I can't see any product page on the site. [:s]
I <kind> of agree with you, but not fully. Users who are accustomed to Logos edition "calendar devotionals" will be greatly disappointed. Users who aren't, and/or who pick them up for <$2 shouldn't be. In many cases reading plans can still be made, albeit with some fidgeting, which will work out "ok."

A tad more than fidgeting when it comes to creating a full year custom reading plan. I was only aware of the product because it came up on my home page in Logos from the Vysro blog. Personally only buy them if the conent is of particular interest, don't care for them as devotionals, not worth the effort. It's easier to extract the text and make it into a proper calendar devotional PB than it is to make a custom reading plan.

Well, not in all cases. Here is a brief example:
Many of these resources DO have "chapter" titles for each day's "reading." When this is the case, it is really pretty simple to create a reading plan. You need to figure out how many "chapter" titles there are (360 + Title Page, TOC, Author Bio, etc.) and create a basic reading plan with "x" readings. If you want to start the plan today or tomorrow, simply backdate the starting of the plan. With some resources, this can be done in under 2 minutes.

Care to make an instructional video for us?
Perhaps not a video (at least not now) but I did just create a reading plan w/ a couple screen shots for you [:)]
In the first screen shot I have a Vyrso devotional (Daniel Plan). There are chapter headings for each reading, which means that an auto plan will create single day readings if you do it right. In addition to each reading, there are 5 other "headings" which you will need to deal with (cover page, title page, copyright page, contents, introduction). The number of "readings," therefore, must be 370 so that things don't get screwed up. Since today is currently "Wednesday," and the first reading is supposed to be on a "Sunday," I created the plan TODAY to start YESTERDAY, but in actuality, the plan will begin on SUNDAY. I know that is a bit confusing. Notice in the second screen shot that the first reading "Sunday: New Year, New You" actually begins on a "Sunday."
The key here is that this particular devotional has chapter headings for each reading (notice the TOC on the left side of first screen shot). If the devotional doesn't have this, DOC is right: it's a mess to try this.

As you said, not in all cases will this work.
