365-Day Bible Reading Plan

The reading plan is provided by https://www.biblica.com/resources/reading-plans/ online.

It is designed for a whole year reading with each portion is read each day.

However, user can read at their own pace, as user can have scroll through the whole list and use the "Save Reading Progress" to help tracking their pace.

Each portion is "checkable" to work with "Save Reading Progress" feature described below.

4 Buttons

There are 4 action buttons on this window:

  • "Open in Tabs" - This opens the selected passages with UBA Bible Window tabs. Each passage is opened in a single tab. Therefore, for example, if there are four passages in the selected collection, they are separately opened into four tabs.

  • "Hide Checked Items" - Both checked and unchecked items are displayed by default. The "Hide Checked Items" offers an options to hide those are checked, i.e. those portions being read.

  • "Reset All Items" - This simply uncheck all available checkboxes. It is designed to reset all items so users can begin another cycle of reading.

  • "Save Reading Progress" - This is designed to help users to track their progress. After reading each portion, user click its corresponding checkbox to have it checked. The "Save Reading Progress" keeps a copy of checked items so they are displayed next time when the window is opened again. Records are saved locally in "plugins/menu/Bible Reading Plan.txt" inside UBA home directory. [Remarks: Checking the items and closing the window without saving doesn't keep any new changes.]
