How do I transfer highlights from one translation to another translation

Cory Lui

Margin notes and highlights are not cross-translational and so you will not see the highlights that you made in one translation if you switch to a different one.

This is mainly due to the fact that not all translations have identical verse numbers (IE: one translation will have 23 verses for a chapter while another translation might have 24 verses or 25).

    That was very well explained. Additionally, highlighted partial verses do not transfer very well especially if one is a thought-for-thought translation and the other is more literal.

    I see that the website has all my highlights listed. Nice! But you can guess where I'm going -- is there a way to enter highlights on the web site, e.g. I could use a perl script to transfer my highlights.

    There are ways to work around this.  I'd happily take what will transfer, and reconcile the rest.  

    I'd sincerely appreciate for this ability.
