[quote user="Kiyah"] Can the entries on Mercy Seat be merged? Mercy Seat (Cultural Ontology/Object): https://ref.ly/logos4/Factbook?ref=bk.%25mercySeat Mercy Seat (Religious Object): https://ref.ly/logos4/Factbook?ref=bk.%24MercySeat [/quote] Yes, thanks for the suggestion. I've merged those: it will be a couple of weeks before that data gets shipped

Yes, I think so. Thanks for pointing this out: we'll get a fix in place.

[quote user="SineNomine"] [quote user="Sean Boisen"]So here's an opportunity for the community to contribute to growing our data in this area.[/quote] By my count, one month after your post, the Orthodox calendar is now >30% covered. [/quote] Thanks for all your contributions!
-
Sorry, i don't know when a fix for this will get shipped.
-
Thanks for the feedback. We'll see if we can come up with a better way to label these events, and we'll update International Septuagint Day to be a little less ... future-oriented.

[quote user="Larry Craig"] thank you It says they may fix it. MJ's suggestion. We'll see [/quote] As MJ notes, we only have person/place/thing annotations on Bible texts (with interlinears). We do have a Factbook entry for Magnesia ad Meandrum , though i don't have any content for it. I believe it's the same place: the Meander and Lycus rivers were

All the Vows in the Bible is one of the new resources included in Logos 9. It's still under development, but should be coming out soon for English. The companion dataset will allow searches like this, and much more.
-
We do word-level annotation (lemmas, morphology, entities like person, place, thing, etc.) on source language Bibles, and then transfer them to English texts via interlinears. That means that only Bibles with interlinears have these kinds of annotations. Data that's at the verse level (events, preaching themes, and the like) is specified by reference

[quote user="abondservant"] [quote user="Sean Boisen"] <snip/> We've had a lot of discussion about how to best capture user feedback, but this didn't make it in time for launch. I expect you'll see an improvement here in the near future. [/quote] Its been a few months Sean, any word? [/quote] There's functionality planned for release with 9.4

[quote user="MJ. Smith"] Just a question not a suggestion: Resources such as the documentation for accents point the user to a particular Faithlife group i.e. Greek Grammatical Constructions. Should this Factbook oriented resources also point to a Faithlife group? [/quote] Yes, they're really datasets converted into resources, so this makes sense. Since
-
[quote user="SineNomine"] <snip/> My post was asking that Faithlife use or allow to be used Verbum's collection of events of interest to Catholics as a source for events of interest to Orthodox in exactly the same way that the Generic list in the Baptist and Orthodox spreadsheets has been offered as a source for events of interest to Baptists

Putting disambiguation links of "nearly equivalent" or confusingly-close subjects (e.g., Demons/Theology and Demons/General) up top in the article might be useful. This is the strategy Wikipedia uses (selectively): for Demon - Wikipedia (Wikipedia calls these Hatnotes ). We considered adding hatnotes or some other navigational device but weren't able

[quote user="SineNomine"] ... I would wonder about the possibility of a "See Also" or "Were you looking for...." section [/quote] We still have a lot more work to do in making it clear how different Factbook pages relate to each other. With more than 375 thousand pages (and continuing to grow), that's a major challenge. Many pages have a See Also section
-
[quote user="Scott David"] I'm still struggling to decide when I should use Factbook and when to use Topic Guide [/quote] As others have suggested, the answer to this is generally: use Factbook . That's where we're investing our data and development effort. It's possible that Topic Guide may get swallowed up as Factbook becomes more mature. One useful
-
[quote user="SineNomine"] It's also the case that denominationally-targeted events can still be denominationally-targeted events for multiple denominations. For example, both Reformed- and Lutheran-targeted event sets ought to have events related to Martin Luther. More relevant to this thread thus far, almost all of the events of particular interest

[quote user="Pater Noster"] ... about the second question - can I find out what the lemmas used only once in Paul's Epistles are, any way to click to a search yet? That would be awesome. [/quote] There's not a way to do that in Bible Books Explorer, but you can with Concordance: Open https://ref.ly/logos4/Concordance Use a Bible with a reverse interlinear

Graham's guess in correct: a few (older) dictionaries include the concept of crowds under the headword "press" https://ref.ly/logosres/intlbbldict1915?art=p.424 https://ref.ly/logosres/dictbblhasting?hw=PRESS So that's fooled someone into misaligning these articles. We'll get that fixed.

[quote user="Dennis Adams"] Thanks! Been tinkering around and come to find out, the KJV I'm using doesn't work. Only a couple of versions will work? At least it's progress [/quote] Using Chrome and app.logos.com, I was able to show the Bible Browser for KJV, NKJV, and others (though there were a few crashes that required reloading the page when switching

Thanks, we've got a case to fix this (and other dark mode issues).

Frank: I apologize for not speaking German, but i think i've gotten the gist from Google Translate. It looks like your Bible text is in Portuguese rather than German. Is it possible that you've selected a Portuguese Bible as your preferred Bible? In any event, in the desktop app you should be able to type something like "set preferred bible to <title>
