Feature: Popular Quotes

Popular Quotes

When writing sermons in Sermon Builder, you will be able to search for helpful quotations that can be inserted into the sermon. The quotations also surface in All Search.

What is it?

You will be able to search for the quotations dataset and insert any suggestion with a drag/drop.

How to access it?

In Sermon Builder:

Open the Logos 10 Desktop app.
Click on the Tools icon (the nine dots square) in the toolbar.
Click the Sermon Builder icon.
Click the Popular Quotes icon (the quotations) in the right sidebar.
Search any word that is relevant to your Sermon prep.
Drag and drop the popular quotation from the right sidebar into your sermon.

In Search:

Open the Logos 10 Desktop app.
Click on the Search icon (the magnifying glass) in the toolbar.
Type “The Word” or any other phrase to search and hit Enter/Return.
Scroll through your search results until you see the Popular Quotations card.

Note

This is available in Silver packages and above.

A great addition! Thank you so much for putting this together for us. Glad I upgraded.

This is a nice feature. It would be helpful to be able to get to it directly, without going through the Sermon Builder - preparing a sermon isn't the only reason someone might want to look for a helpful quote (e.g., teaching a class, writing a paper, preparing a blog post, etc.).

As Ali describes, you can also find popular quotes in search results.

Thanks, Richard, I missed that.

Awesome feature! But neither of these options seem to work in the French interface.

It works on my friends' computer so I need to look into this and find out why I'm left out. Sorry for the post...

EDIT: I apparently purchased the "Logos 10 Gold Library update" which didn't include the features. Nothing more to say...! My bad.

You need the L10 Silver Feature Upgrade.

Within 30 days of your purchase talk to customer service. You may be able to return the library only and purchase the gold library+features using the discount.

That's what I did. Everyone was super nice about it. I talked to a few people at Logos, and they admitted that it's confusing even for them... I've been using Logos since it was Libronix 3. Up until recently, we didn't worry too much about having to check out the language: there was only an English interface with a handful of French books. I'm thankful for the better options in my language, in spite of the fact that some features are missing. But I do have "Popular quotes" now... well, "Citations populaires"! [H]

Hello Richard,

It seems that the one in Search is more limited than the one in the sermon builder. As EastTN mentioned, having full access to this dataset outside of sermon builder would be helpful. I'll throw that out on the upgrade request list for sure. Y'all make sure to upvote it.

Thank You,

--Steven

I have the Silver package but I DO NOT have the Quotes icon in any document, especially the Sermon Builder document, which is where I want to user it. You say it is available in the Silver package, so why doesn't it show on my Logos 10 Silver package? Is there something you're not telling me here or am I doing something wrong? Is it something I have to turn on and if so, how?

Dave Hooton

It should be in Sermon Builder if you have the Silver Feature Set with your package.

Bob Lankford

Aha! There’s the issue! It is NOT the fact that I have the Silver edition. As I suspected, it has to be the Silver FEATURE edition. I often find people saying a feature is available on the Silver edition, but they never mention that it must be the Silver FEATURE edition. I only have the Silver Baptist edition. As I mentioned in my reply, “Are you not telling me something?”

Bob Lankford

Ali, you mention in your note at the bottom of your post that this feature is “available in Silver packages (plural) and above.” However, this feature is NOT available in the Silver Baptist set. I have found by various posters that features are available in the Silver package, but they never mention that it is only available in the Silver Feature set. That is quite frustrating.

This sounds strange... the Silver Feature Set should be a part of the Baptist Silver package:

There is the opportunity to only buy the library part of the base package, but to the best of my knowledge this is only available for people who have access to the (then even: full) Feature Set through a subscription such as Faithlife Connect or Verbum Now. Did you by chance buy the package when a subscription was active and then cancel that one?

I had Logos 9 Silver Baptist package and only upgraded to the Logos 10 when the free upgrade was made available. I did not add anything, just let my Logos automatically upgrade with no changes. This is not a Silver Feature package. Somehow, I missed the opportunity to make it a “Feature“ set or package.

When I upgraded from the Logos 9 Base (Free) package, I selected the Logos Baptist package and not the Feature package. When Logos 10 became available, I just let Logos 9 automatically upgrade. Therefore, I ended up with Logos Baptist Silver which does not include the Print Library function nor does it include the Quotation function. Now I can’t afford the Full Feature upgrade..I didn’t realize these two functions were going to be available when I purchased the Logos 9 Baptist package. The Silver Feature Upgrade is a misnomer. What I was expecting is only available in the Full Feature Upgrade.

This sounds like you didn't end up with Logos 10 Baptist Silver (thus this should show as unowned), but functionality-wise with a free Logos 10 or rather 24 and the features of the L9 Silver Feature package, as well as the library of a yet-to-come L9 Baptist Silver Legacy package.

The Sermon Builder Popular Quotations feature is available in the Silver Feature Upgrade package (down in the long list of 75 features), whereas you are right concerning the Print Library feature: it is available only in the Full Feature Upgrade (or in a Faithlife Connect / Verbum Now Subscription, which may come cheaper).
