Logos 45.0 Beta 1
Version: 45.0.11
Release Date: August 27th, 2025
New Features & Improvements for Subscribers
Sermon and Bible Study Visual Filters
- New visual filters let you see your sermons and Bible studies as you’re reading the Bible, just as you already can for your notes. Hover over the ribbon or icon, then click again to open the document. You can toggle the filters from View > Formatting > Markers.
Smart Synopsis Improvements
- Smart Synopsis now provides clearer, sentence-level citations that link directly to source material. Footnotes and bibliographies have been updated to make it easier to verify information and navigate to cited content.
Other Improvements for All Users
Dynamic Toolbar
- The Dynamic toolbar is now turned on for all users. The old resource toolbar has been retired.
Factbook
- The Theology Guide is now integrated into Factbook, using the existing Theological lens. When a Theology Guide is opened, you will be redirected to the Factbook panel with the Theological Lens active. This change brings two new section changes:
- The old Systematic Theologies section has been replaced with a more powerful Theologies section.
- Related Topics is now included in the Theological lens to show where a topic fits in hierarchies like Cultural Concepts, Systematic Theology, and Counseling Themes.
Bug Fixes
Application
- Updated numeral styles in the numerous areas of the application.
- Right-clicks on sermon document links from the Documents panel will no longer crash the app.
Footnotes
- When “Copy Footnotes” is set to yes, copying and pasting text into a note will no longer create duplicate footnotes.
Inline Interlinear
- Opening a book that is an interlinear (not one that has a reverse interlinear) will now have interlinears on by default.
Reading Plans
- Opening a resource type of Monograph will now provide pre-generated reading plans without any gaps in the table of contents.
Resource Panel
- The application will no longer cause a crash that would occasionally occur when refreshing or closing a resource panel.
Sermon Builder
- Blank sermons will no longer be saved if they are not modified.
- Auto-publish date will no longer be inherited from a template if the date is in the past.
Factbook
- The application no longer crashes when the user tries to close the Counseling Guide alert before it loads.
- Opening a guide will no longer crash when editing guide templates.
- When a user-generated Factbook tag overlaps with one created by Logos, a disambiguation pop-up is now shown when the user clicks on the tags.
