Question about How to Create Links to Specific Logos Resources

How to Create Links to Specific Logos Resources is supposed to contain an animated GIF showing a 2-click method to create links, but all I see in Safari 10.1 (12603.1.30.0.34) is a static image.

Mark mentions about using the "URL" option, but I don't see any place in the program settings that lets us specify the format of the copied link.

If I use Cmd-Alt-C and paste what I copied from Logos to Faithlife.com, I end up with this (Logos 4?) logosres:begbiblheb;ref=bbh.BBH_2.6 reference, which isn't recognized by the website.

I apparently have to paste the copy into an intermediate app like TextEdit, which then produces a Beginning Biblical Hebrew ref.ly link.

Have the instructions/procedure changed?

It seems that Faithlife.com prefers Biblia links anyway, as the ref.ly link didn't provide any preview for the post.

When you choose a link style on a resource's panel menu (by clicking URL, HTML, L4, etc.), the application remembers your choice for future links (and sets it as the default for Cmd+Alt+C).

If I use Cmd-Alt-C and paste what I copied from Logos to Faithlife.com, I end up with this (Logos 4?) logosres:begbiblheb;ref=bbh.BBH_2.6 reference, which isn't recognized by the website.

It sounds like something isn't quite working right. If you confirm that "URL" is selected on the panel menu, but you don't get a https://ref.ly/ link when pasting into other applications, then I'll have the team look into it.

I don't know why the blog's animated GIF isn't work for some of us, but directing me to the resource panel menu was the answer. Mine was set to L4 in BBH (but still managed to paste as a URL in TextEdit).

Once I properly changed the setting, Cmd-Alt-C is now generating a URL I can paste.

Thanks Bradley!
