06/30/24 - We use Linux at our church, and this morning when I pulled up a scripture it pulled the current reference, but the verse was absolutely the wrong one. Was looking for 2 Cor. 4:18 but somehow it pulled from like Genesis 1

EDIT: If you keep searching for your text, it does eventually find the right verse. Think it took 4 search's this morning to get the right passage of scripture.

I too am experiencing this on two Win 10 PCs. On both, FreeShow hangs immediately when selecting the Scripture drawer, which appears blank. The only way to close FreeShow is via the Task Manager.

On one PC, where v1.1.9 was installed on top of v1.1.7, did not have this problem. The problem occurred after that v1.1.9 was uninstalled (and leftovers removed using Revo), and then v1.1.9 reinstalled.

The following entry is made in the error log: "type": "unhandledrejection", "source": "See stack", "message": "Cannot convert undefined or null to object", "stack": "TypeError: Cannot convert undefined or null to object\n at Function.keys ()\n at e.$$.update (file:

Please advise if you identify a work-around (other than rolling back).

Will be fixed in the next version!

Workaround (if you can use local bibles):

  1. Locate the program data location (Windows: %AppData%/freeshow)
  2. Open "settings_synced.json".
  3. Find the "scriptures" key, and add this to the start:
"fix": {
    "name": "Fix"
},
  1. Open the "settings.json" file, locate the "drawerTabsData" key, and replace the "scripture">"activeSubTab" key with "fix".
  2. Open the program, and locate the scriptures tab. (Don't click on any API bibles, or collections), only local bibles work, but this allows you to import this.

If you can't figure this out, you can wait for the next release or downgrade to 1.1.7.

Thank you. That resolved the issue on both PCs.

Same issue, If we trying to search for a verse in scripting it pulled from Genesis 1:1. Eg; Trying to add Psalms 137 entire chapter, it pulled from Genesis. To fix means, we need to click few books multiple times then search or Manually need to add.

I think loading the Bible has issue

In Scripture Tab Right button and options need to implement, Like . Add to Project

@TPaulManohar Do you have this issue in version 1.1.9? Also if you click the "New show" button in the bottom right is will be added to the project.

vassbo avatar Jul 10 '24 12:07 vassbo

yes @vassbo This issue is in V1.1.9. And yes after selected the verse and click New Show button it added to the project, but it picked Genesis 1.

Recently I noticed in Mac M2 Pro, If we select Scripture is not responding, and Even rest of tab also not working like Shows, Media, Audio, Templates, Calendar, Functions. After closed the app and restart application if we click rest of the tabs it works, if we click again scripture tab it won't work, not responding other tabs as well.

The last good working vesion is 1.1.7

Jsiwolowski avatar Jul 15 '24 09:07 Jsiwolowski

This should be fixed in this release: https://github.com/ChurchApps/FreeShow/releases/tag/v1.2.0 (Marked as prerelease currently, in case any major bugs have occured, but should not.)

We need more people testing the prereleases to prevent things like this from happening, you will be able to find them on the website as well: https://freeshow.app/downloads

I've started testing the Pre-Release, and so far no problems with scripture.

I'll keep going and so how it turns out.

Bagel94 avatar Jul 19 '24 12:07 Bagel94

Confirm drawer freezing issue is resolved in v1.2.0. Adding and navigating API and XML bibles is fine now. Thank you.

colanct avatar Jul 19 '24 15:07 colanct

@vassbo We tested v1.2.0 scriptures, it is works as expected. And searching Bible references also working correct.

Thanks you
