1 - | Am I allowed to use the song from this page in my church (service or other event)? |
Yes ... No ... Don't know ... Maybe ...
Basically the songs on lovsang.dk are for private use only. If you would like to use one or more of the songs at a public event (church service usually is public), then you - or your church - must make sure that you have the nessacery rights or permissions to use that/those specific song(s). How do you do that? CCLI may be a good place to start (www.ccli.com).
2 - | I have read that it is possible to transpose the chords on a song, se the guitar chords + other thing. How do I do this? |
When you click on a song and see the lyrics and chords on the screen, in the upper right corner you will see an icon (). Click the icon and a "controlpanel" will appear. Here you can transpose the chords, show/hide the chords, show hide guitar chord diagrams, change font size, change font and print the song.
On mobile unit with touchscreen you can swipe left to show the controlpanel and swipe right to hide it.
3 - | When addeding a new song - the song has to be typed in a strange format. Why? |
Well ... This special format (ChordPro format) is needed to ensure that chords always are correctly placed over the lyrics. It also makes it possible to transpose the chords later + show guitar chords diagrams. Besides the special format used for chords, the ChordPro format also makes other "fancy" stuff possible. For example the chorus can be highlighted, comments can be added, etc.
The easiest way to explain the posibilities is to show an example. For this purpose we have put together a song, where all the posibilities in the ChordPro format is used. Below you will see two buttons that allows you to see this "test song". One button loads the song in the editing page where you are free to edit the song and try out the ChordPro format. The other button loads the test song in the normal viewing page.
