In my use of Eloquent, I've noticed that the book names always display in English, not in the language of the module. Is this a limitation of the front-end itself, or due to a lack of a canon.bible.xml file as part of the configuration?
<br></pre></blockquote><pre wrap="">The book names should be localized. In my Eloquent they are in german.
However, it does not depend on the language of the module but on the language of the operating system.
