Bible SuperSearch 2.1.00 Released

Bible SuperSearch 2.1.00 has been released. This new release features several improvements and bug fixes, including: A new authentication system for installer. The installer should now work on more servers. (Many were having trouble with the installer.) The system can now handle large Bibles that require more than 3 module files. Highlighting revised to handle quotes in the text.

Issues with using period in references. Internet Explorer and Firefox for Windows format issues Random Chapter/Verse now works for user_friendly2 interface Proximity/Chapter search with only one word now works, acts as a basic search Fixed bugs in the Bible search tester.

False negative in Bible tester resolved

An issue preventing the Bible tester from working has been resolved in the latest release.  This release is only available as a patch. This issue resulted in the tester giving a false negative for every test, even when the Bibles are installed properly and the Bible search is working. Download Patch 2.0.71 if this is an issue for you. (If the Bible search is working properly, you don’t need to apply this patch.)

Bible SuperSearch 2.0.70 Released Improved proximity search.

A new version of Bible SuperSearch has been released. 2.0.70 includes a completely new, much faster proximity search algorithm. Also added as an extension of the proximity search is the capability to search for all words, within a chapter. (All words must be in the same chapter, but not necessarily in the same verse.) Also in this release are many bug fixes, especially in the passage lookup syntax, and a revised user guide.
