Adding highlights and notes to commentary?

[Risen]

I see a link to edit commentary but it isn't active? I wanted to add notes to the Pulpit commentary. Wanted to highlight words and add extra definition information. Is that something that can be done?

If the edit link is grayed out, the commentary can't be edited. I think most of the commentaries aren't editable. You can tell which ones can be edited by the little pencil next to the name on the tabs.

You cannot edit the Pulpit commentary. Those links are for your own created commentaries.

A workaround could be to copy-and-paste entries from other commentaries into a new one you create for your own additions.

Read through Help. Still need Help. Want to highlight the word "heart" in my editable book with yellow.
There are around 60 verses to do, can it be done like search and replace? So far cannot find this option. I can do one easy but hoped for a speedy way to do multipile highlights.
Ezekiel 36:26 (KJV) A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
Want to highlight the word (heart) in all the verses.

No, sorry.

Thanks. Hopefully in Editor code mode, or NotePad+++ I can make this happen.

My workaround for highlighting a word in a book module. Using SwordSearcher to a word highlighted automaticlly!
Do (Quick Search F3) in your "entry window" for the word, in my case, "heart".
Results window appears, Choose the "entry" that you are searching. Could be many to choose. It will be the "entry name" of your search window.
Then choose (click) that entry. In the "search window results" all words are "highlighted".
That search window is actually a "the full copy of the entry" you just did a search in, but with "heart" highlighted.
Copy/Paste (entire window) back into your original entry, it worked for me.
I am sure there is a better way, this is my results to get what I wanted.

One caveat - Depending on your copy paste method. You will get the "Entry Title" copied twice. Easy fix just delete it.
Best Practice: use mouse to copy "all window" (the full text body), then paste back into your original entry.
If not sure use a "Test Entry Module" to see results.
Here is what that looks like:

Trying to highlight a word in a book entry "all at once". Here is what I got working for me in a book module for highlighting a single word throughout a book entry. Using SwordSearcher search feature for the word "heart". Once I did search, I opened the search results to that entry. All "heart " was highlighted by SwoprdSearcher for me. There may be better ways to do this, it was my only way to get what I wnated. Hope this helps others.
Placed all text and scriptures in entry, then all my search results for "heart" was highlighted.
