When you make changes to sections in a Bible Word Study, Logos /saves/ that instance of the guide. \\ /Don't confuse a saved guide with a [[Custom  Guide >> Customizing the Bible Word Study Guide]]/.

 

* Open the Guides menu and click on one of the listed(/saved/) Bible Word Study guides on the right:

!! Saved Bible Word Study's

!!!!! When does Logos save Guides?

Anytime that you add text within a Guide or add/delete/reposition sections Logos will save that guide. Logos saves the guide with the _exact_ word that you entered in the /Word/ box. For instance if you were to type in the /Title/ box, then Logos would save the guide. The areas available for text entry are the Title box, Description box, and Notes boxes. If you use the *Add* button to add sections, or if you delete sections, or rearrange sections then Logos saves the guide.  \\ \\

!!!!! Why are saved Guides completely different when viewed later?

When viewing a saved guide some time afterward you may see sections (and data) different to your current template, so just realize that its format and content is "frozen" when it is saved.

\\ \\

!! Deleting BWS Guides

!!! Deleting a saved BWS Guide

* Go to the *Guides* menu, right click a /saved/ BWS guide and click *Delete*.

If the guide is already open for the word:

* /*Logos 4*/

 #. Click on the guide's icon to see the drop down menu.

 #. Click on *Delete this guide*.

 #. Click on the *X* in the guide's panel to close the guide.

 

Otherwise, go to the [[Guides menu >> # Opening a Saved BWS Guide]], right click a /saved/ BWS guide and click *Delete*.

!! Hyperlinking and Editing

!!! Creating a hyperlink to a BWS guide

Copying the hyperlink to a BWS works the same as in other resources. An example of copying a hyperlink for a BWS guide to a note file is shown below. You could just as easily create the link in other places which support hyperlinks.

\\ \\ [[{{$ http://wiki.logos.com/media/Bws12a.png?maxheight=350 }} >> http://wiki.logos.com/media/Bws12a.png]] \\ \\

#. Click on the BWS's icon to open the menu.

#. In the drop down menu click on *URL*. Logos creates a link to your BWS guide and stores it in the clipboard. \\ \\ [[{{$ http://wiki.logos.com/media/Bws12b.png?maxwidth=600 }} >> http://wiki.logos.com/media/Bws12b.png]] \\ \\

#. Open a note file. (click on File in top menu, then in drop down menu click on Notes on the left)

#. Enter your text in the body of a note. Then use your mouse to select the text that you want to be your link text.

#. Right click in the Hyperlink box.

#. In the pop-up menu click on *Paste*. \\ \\ {{$ media:Bws12c.png }} \\ \\

#. Now you will see your link text turn blue, Logos has created your link to the BWS guide.

\\

!!! Editing text inside a BWS guide Note
