Learning Logos: Help for Misspelled Search Queries

There are certain words I easily know how to spell, but I always seem to mistype them when searching in Logos. For example, I type:

• prasie for praise
• fiath for faith
• saerch for search

Until I improve my typing, Logos has provided some help for me (and perhaps for you) when it comes to misspelled Logos search queries.

Give this a go:

• Click the Search icon in the Go box (A)
• Select Bible as the search type (B)
• Type this in the Search box: “prasie the Lord” (C)
• Press the Enter key to generate 0 results (D)
• Notice right under the Search box Search for “praise the Lord” instead? (E)

• Click that helpful link to generate real results (F)

Hopefully, if you have any common typing mistakes, you’ll receive some searching assistance so you don’t have to retype a query.

This feature was added in recent updates to Logos 8.
