How can I skip the need for an email address when registering and logging in? Our IT dept will not give an email address to each guy I want on the log.

I never thought that someone will not have an email address. One basic feature of ELOG is its automatic notification if there is a new entry, and that only works over email. It's like social networks, you cannot register for Facebook if you don't have an email address.
So if you absolutely want to omit this, just give a fake email address, like nobody@no.where. ELOG just checks if there is a "@" and a "." somewhere.

Word of warning about fake email addresses - if your system suddenly does start to send out messages to them, you'll start getting otherwise mysterious email messages back about being unable to deliver and other such comments. I speak from experience - although in my case the puzzle was finding what was generating the messages in the first place (not elog, another program as it happened).
I suggest you also include
Suppress default = 3
in your configuration file, which also stops them being generated in the first place.
Although I was unaware (or had totally forgotten) that there was a 'Suppress email button' as mentioned in the documentation. |
