Tim Hall Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 So, I happily opened my Accordance July 2023 email Newsletter. I enjoyed the content as it walked me through how to cite references in Accordance (I love the many options in 14). And then I get to my favorite part a free gift to me. Clicked the link excitedly and then the website that came up listed a price that was not free. I figure something went awry and thought you should know. Blessings!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorinda H. M. Hoover Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I was going to report the same thing. This is at least the 4th time there has been an issue with the link to the fee item, the issue usually being that it isn’t listed as free initially. This time it’s a bit more complex, as it appears the English Perseus has only ever been part or a larger bundle. Clearly there is a recurring issue with communication or the like between the newsletter creators/deciders of freebies and those tasked with updating entries in the store. Accordance staff, please sort this out. It isn’t a good look for this to happen more months than not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric J. Tully Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Newsletter says it is Greek & English bundle, but comes up $99 when you click. I already entered a ticket in support chat before I saw this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you study Greek these can be very useful to see how words are used in context. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure the entire newsletter isn't from 2021? It was all about how to use citations in version 13, lol.

I'm surprised it wasn't updated to the new citation formats in v. 14, though. Edited July 1, 2023 by R. Mansfield 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But generally i dont know what is around the corner so even if i dont have an immediate use for something, i will quite often 'get' it so its registered in my account, but i tend not to download things i wont use, even in the collections, so they are there in easy install but not taking up valuable disc space. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The July, 2021 newsletter freebie was Ruth by John Butler. If you got the Perseus bundle for free that same month, it may have been as part of a weekly sale giveaway. Edited July 1, 2023 by R.

There was a mixup with the newsletter this month. The draft version of the automation (which is copied as a placeholder from the previous year) went out. This wasn't intended, but we will still be honoring the discount on the free item since it was advertised. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Nathan Parker Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I was thinking the same thing about the 14 screenshots. 55 minutes ago, ReformedDoc said: I am not sure if Trump or Biden is at fault, but am blaming one of them!🤣 Don't worry.

Daniel L Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Thanks for the freebie! It looks like you forgot to add the Perseus icon to the main modules. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Allison Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) Daniel, try opening them and then quitting Accordance and restarting. That often makes missing icons appear. Don't know why. Edited July 3, 2023 by Mark Allison 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
