Sentences only shown when page is read
This documentation is deprecated/obsolete. Lute v2 has been replaced by Lute v3, a full Python rewrite. Please see the Lute v3 manual which includes notes on installation. If you have Lute v2, you can easily migrate to v3. Thank you!
Lute shows sentences for a Term and its siblings when you click the Sentences link on the Term form, but it only includes sentences for pages marked as "read". Pages are marked as "read" when you click on any of the links at the bottom of the reading page:
Lute only includes sentences from pages marked "read" for a few reasons:
- Only sentences you've seen before are included, so you'll have had some exposure to the vocabulary already. Including unread sentences would possibly show you new, confusing, or distracting vocabulary or ideas.
- Showing unread sentences can spoil books! (I was reading a book and when I looked up a sentence I found out that a character died ...)
In summary, when you first create a new term, the Sentences link won't show any sentences right away, but once you mark the page as "read" the sentences will be shown in the future.
