After I have imported a bible reading from Bible Gateway and added it to my service I need to edit some parts of the text. Clicking on the edit button brings up a small Bible settings window which allows me to change fonts etc, but I cannot see how to edit the actual text.

Hi David,

Unfortunately, due to copyright and not to upset the bible publishers we can't allow users to edit the actual text of the bibles.

If its a case of not display all the verses from a chapter, the best way is to select the chapter you want, you can then multi select verses, even verses that are not in order, by holding down Ctrl and selecting the verses you want. Then pressing 'add'

Hope that helps.

Gordon.

What I want to do is correct spelling errors and change occasional words. I am ok with selecting verses out of a chapter.

Ah I see.

The spelling problems will be with bible-gateway, but we have recently worked out how to create our off line bible format using the ZEFANIA xml format

You can find out more details in this forum post below.

hope that is of more use.
