Filter Menu text = scripts/calendar_filter/calendar_filter.html

For all you guys (and girls;-) who want to add skins to ELOG, it is 
important to know what will be affected if you change a style.
So I made a cross reference of styles vs. html pages.

In the attached ZIP file you will find:
--> "ELOG CSS xref.xls" (Microsoft Excel spreadsheet)
--> "ELOG CSS xref.pdf" (PDF file for those who do not have Excel)
--> A directory containing the html pages I documented and the ELOG 
stylesheet (.css-file) that you need when you want to see the html files. 
Images are not included: they are not needed for this purpose.

I know that not all pages are documented, but Stefan told me that there is 
no complete list of all pages because they are generated. So I documented 
only the pages I need at this moment.

Please feel free to mail me when you have comments, corrections or 
additions.

I had to modify the script because I'm still on elog 2.9.2, where there are not subdirectories (by year) for
 each logbook.  Line 5 had to be changed to  

$logf=q/[0-9][0-9][01][0-9][0-3][0-9]a.log/;

to do this.

Once done, I found the deliberate orphan script that I had put in to test, and rather too many other orphans than I had expected.  One or two I cannot explain.   If I had clicked on any of those entries elog would have gone into infinate loop.

A very useful utility.  Thanks Andreas!

I have been trying to get my head around this application module. I assume that after the input is done on this example (ShiftCheck), if goes into the  usual file system directorys for storage? Or is it (or can it) goto another db like sql, flat, etc.?  I also assume that the 'normal' Elog screens we see for input (and output), would be a completely seperate module that you have for (ShiftCheck).. but we do not see them here (as one of the attachments)? I am asking these questions because I am trying to recreate this (type) of input/output system for users, so I would like to know how the 'whole picture' is done with your example here. Thanx again.

The following script creates a thumbnail for image/ps/pdf files.  
it can be used with "Execute edit" and "Execute new" configuration commands  
in order to get resized thumbs of attachments.  
  
It uses file(1), convert(1) for images, gs(1) is also required for ps and pdf.  
  
You have to start elogd with the "-x" option to enable execution and put  
something similar to the following in you configuration elog file:  
  
Execute new = /path/to/make_thumbs -s 650 -q 95 $attachments  
Execute edit = /path/to/make_thumbs -s 100 $attachments  
  
make_thumbs have to be executable by the user running elogd, of course.  
 
 
ChangeLog: 
* version 0.2.0 Fixes a BUG in PDF creation 

Hi,

I had to change code to authenticate users in my organization's LDAP directory. Indeed, accounts are distributed under several organizational units in my LDAP directory.

The current version of the code can't authenticate accounts when these are in different organizational units. Hence my contribution.

I Use a read account to request LDAP to locate the account that has logged in (with e-mail address in the search filter).

I get the number of LDAP entries. If I have one entry then I call ldap_get_dn function to get the DN account and then I call ldap_simple_bind_s using the account's DN and password to perform LDAP authentication.

I changed configuration file elogd.cfg. I added two parameters:

LDAP DN user = <DN read account>

LDAP PW user = <password read account>

I changed code auth.c too (see attached file)

I had to change Makefile. I added a call to lber library

Have good day

The original theme is from Francois Cukier but I have change a some color 
and font.

Francois Cukier  said : "Uncompress "Bubble.zip" in your Elog default 
folder if you want to replace the original elog theme. Otherwise, if you 
decompress it in another folder, you will need to modify your elogd.cfg 
file as described at this adress: http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html"

Do it at the same ;o)

I want to thanks Francois Cukier and Stephan Ritt for their works, so 
THANKS a lot !

I wait your comments :o).

2005/08/1 : Alexander Sheremet correct CSS bug thanks to it, archive re-uploaded

Hello,

I am using ELOG 2.5.2. I had a real need for a simplified almost text-only version of the application.  For me 
personally, I like simple, minimalist and text-only as much as possible for the tools I use.  I personally found 
the layout with all the colors to be distracting from the content of each log entry.  Again this is ONLY my 
personal preference, NO offense meant. :-)

I took the default.css and modified it to achieve what I needed.  I am uploading here, the .css file.  It uses 
"blue" for some of the things such as attribute fields on single page view, etc.  but overall it's all clean, 
plain-text.

I don't know if this css will work on newer versions of ELOG (since I know i'm using an old one.)  But it's my 
hope that others like me, will find this modification very useful.

Thank you Stefan, and community -- this is an awesome tool, that I use in my business.  It's amazing how simple 
tools are always the most powerful and scale-able!  Fantastic, excellent job on this app.

Very often this happens if an entry is deleted AFTER someone already replied to it. Normally that is no problem, but in some cases you might get infinite loops and that causes ELOG to hang. The script is not checking for loops, but wrong references might give you a hint where to look.

The script will print duplicate entries as well, if the referenced entry exist more than once.

Cheers, Andreas

PS: never include the string "$ @ MID @ $:" without spaces in an ELOG entry: apparently ELOG cuts off all text from that token on.

Hi all,

first off all let me say, that I realy like this great tool. That is a lot of help for keeping our server documentation up-to-date. Thanks to all contributors for that.

I right here, because I actually have an issue with saving entries working with IE11 (but also in IE9). When ever I enter an entry, and click the save button, the page open a page with the text: "OK 1"   or the second attemp: "OK 2"   3rd  "OK 3" and so on. To get back to my Item list, I have to click the back button in the internet explorer. I also opens a lot of draft entries in my databases.  When I submit my entry, I don't have an issue, and the entry is saved correctly.

This issue doesn't happen when using Google Chrome.

Had anyone an simlar issue using elog with IE?  It would be great to have some help with that issue.

Thanks

Torsten
