Verse List Duplicates

Post by Opv »

Would it be possible to add a safeguard to prevent duplicate verses from being added to the same Verse List?

Hmmm easily done, yet this would exclude cases where a verse lists exists for the sole reason of adding the same verse in different translations

Thanks. Would the ability to show/hide duplicates be more appealing?

===== EDIT=====
For me personally, the issue of different translations would not be an issue. I would much prefer for a duplicate not to be allowed to be added if it already exists in the verse list. However, I realize that might be an issue for other users, in which case it would be better to at least be able to toggle the duplicates off rather than cluttering up my lists with a ton of duplicate verses.

Thanks again.

Hmmmm. Unless I am missing something, the process described in that post would require multiple steps involving an external application. If preventing duplicates is something that can be "easily done," I personally would rather see the desired functionality built into TW rather than having to go through that process.

Thanks as always.

The proposed solution is not clean, yes.
But I assume this is not an everyday job
