Logos is the world's leading tool for digital Bible study, and a product of Faithlife.
Follow- That's fantastic Graham Criddle, thank you! Has that always been so? I've never seen that come up before.
- Glad it was helpful Rev. Kevin Obermeyer - and it's been there a long time!
- The answer is version history. Sorry can't do screen capture at the moment. But open sermon, click the "i" icon and then the clock/version history icon.
- I hope someone can help me with a couple questions. I purchased my Logos subscription last month, 2 years at the tier I felt best for me. I have not yet purchased a library because I'm still undecided, also I'm waiting to see what the new denominational libraries will look like. So, here are my questions: is there an expiration time frame on the 30% discount for a library, and when will new denominational libraries be announced. I have not been able to find answers. This time of year I have many expenses to deal with, and I would be able to purchase a better (more expensive) library after the first of the year. Can anyone help me with answers? Thanks!
- I would suggest asking this question in our new community space, Randy Clark. Here's a direct link to the Logos forum for English users: https://community.logos.com/categories/discuss-logos
- I’d personally call the Logos Customer Service
- Not sure where to put this but I wanted to give feedback about the AI usage credit icon (that I call the AI-O-Meter) in v38. My test account currently has no features that use AI. I don't have the translation tool, no summarization or smart search, no synopsis, no Sermon/Homily Builder or Bible Study Builder, etc. So the icon is just sitting there on my toolbar serving no purpose except to tell me that I've used 0% of my AI credits. So my feedback is, does it make sense to have that icon showing for everyone without the ability to remove or hide it regardless of whether they have AI features or not? I would say no. This icon should be hidable. Adam Borries (Logos)
- Thanks. I was able to confirm that that test account does have an AI feature. It has a temporary license for Factbook Result Summarization, by virtue of being a member of the public beta group. https://faithlife.com/logos-early-access-beta-features
- Okay Adam, thanks.

One more thing Adam Borries (Logos), my test account has Verbum Fundamentals 7 and 8, which should have the Passage Analysis tool. I know I had this feature before, but now it's grayed out like I don't own it. I should own this tool through Fundamentals. Can you check and see what's wrong here?
- Many have asked how to open up their Kindle app from within Logos because some of their books are not available in Logos but they own them on Kindle. I set this up and it works well. Then I realized that I can use the same Logos URL function to connect to Project Gutenberg (https://www.gutenberg.org/) which would provide "free" web reading access to over 70,000 books. Of course, Gutenberg is not exclusively Christian or Bible resources, but there are thousands of commentaries and writings of Christians that are easily searched and accessed by connecting the URL to Logos the Logos toolbar on the home screen.Project GutenbergProject Gutenberg is a library of free eBooks.www.gutenberg.org
- Is there a training video fishbowl how this is done?

Absolutely, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvLMelzK20k Basically, to add an external app (e.g. Kindle) or an external web site (e.g. Gutenberg.org) to your Logos Toolbar Shortcut, you drag and drop a link from your external PC app (computer address) or URL (hyperlink) from the web site onto your toolbar. You may have to drag it around until you find free area on your toolbar to drop it. If you are successful, you will see the icon of the link on your toolbar. My preference is to include a label with the icon, so right click on the icon to add a label if you prefer a label name on the toolbar.
- Is Logos redirecting almost every page to the main Logos website, 10% coupon for a package, and the advertisement for the big reveal coming up? Lately it seems like I can't stay long on any Logos or Faithlife page or even the Logos web app without it trying to redirect me. Any thoughts, anyone?
- If you are talking about the web site, I've not experienced that. I just went in and clicked on a few links and don't get any redirects. I have seen a banner at the top of the Logos Mac app.
- Weirdly, almost everything I try to visit, from blog articles to discussion groups to sale pages, all redirects to the main Logos page with those advertisements within a short amount of time. I then have to try to click page back to get where I was. I have no idea why. It's never happened before.

- Hello Rev. Obermeyer, I’m interested in exporting a list to Excel. Not a problem if I’m not able to. I’ve exported a couple of other lists (see my other comment) and was curious to know if I could do the same for my courses. Thank you!
- I don't think there's a way to export the course list per se, but perhaps in your Library export file you could sort by type or something to extract the courses, then save that portion as a file of its own.
- That’s my next plan, Thanks!
- Can I specify a Bible version for a Sermon document that is different from my preferred Bible without changing my preferred Bible? I want to pull verses from a different Bible just for this sermon, but I do not want to change the default Bible throughout Logos.
- Within your Sermon document, look for the "Reference" tool or the Bible citation area. Here, you should be able to specify the Bible translation you want to use for that particular document. https://boxingrandom.com
- I'm sorry, Faithful User, I don't see either the tool or the "citation area" that will allow me to select a translation for the whole document. Perhaps you could provide a "click on this" tutorial to get me top that tool.
- Those are in the Tools menu, not the Sermon Document. His account appears to have been removed, perhaps for the spammy link he gave.
