[ACK] Bug: "Search All Resources" in Systematic Theologies is not working as expected

I would expect that when choosing "Search All Resources" from the Systematic Theologies section, then Logos would do a search for something like <Daniel 8> WITHIN {Label Theology} (or whatever the label is), but I'm just getting a search for <Daniel 8> which is pretty useless.

PS - Please tell me you've used labels for this, and not yet another proprietary database. It is frustrating when new functionality is restricted to specific tools and doesn't use standard syntax that users can access.

Hi Mark.

MJ already reported this (item 4 in the 4-item list, here: https://community.logos.com/forums/t/105523.aspx) and I've filed a report on it.

FWIW, we're talking internally about ways to go about extending resource-level categorization without breaking existing things. Grammars was easy as we already had a category for it. Systematic Theologies is a bit more difficult (no, really) and at present, the only place the list exists is in the underlying data resource.

FWIW #2, note that Grammars and Systematic Theologies are two of a kind; the underlying data are of the same resource type (of which we have at least one more planned [creeds & confessions] but several others possible). But they are not implemented as labels.

[:'(] Creed and Confessions would have been my first choice for implementation. [;)] I'll definitely be watching anxiously for it.

Ooh Nice! That will be a good addition.
