Hey, great: I've learned something new about elog! I always took great care to get the capitalization of the options correct wink

That's not correct. Any option in the configuration file is case-insensitive. It should also not matter if the statement is under the logbook or in the [global] section. 

What you probably made wrong is to write "supress email to users =1" instead "suppress email to users =1". Note the second "p". So English in the end DOES matter, at least here wink

You need to specify "Suppress Email to users=1" in the [global] section of the configuration. And it does matter if the letters are capitalized on not.

sorry for may bad english, not my natives :D

for first question, I'll make it clear,

after sometimes running elog, suddenly SMTP host error occured.

I dont have SMTP host= on my configuration, but that error keep show up.

how to disable email notification completely for my elog? or at least how to disable those SMTP Host error?

I'll try supress email users =1 to my elog.cfg and error still exist. where I should place supress email users flag to make it works?

on the picture attached, it is said there is no smtp host defined in global setting.

could it be because members check automatic email notification on their setting?

 

for second question I'll attach my csv file, and you will see <p> </p> tags still there, and inconsistency when open it to ms excel (see picture)

you can see that portion of text file (second line of text file and soon, placed in "id pesan")

 

please help us.

If you have more than one topic it is better to do more than one post.

I did not understand your first question. You should not have a line "SMTP host= " if you don't want to send any email. Have you tried "Suppress Email to users=1" to get rid of the error message?

If you export in cvs format, then it is the correct behaviour that multiple lines of text in the body are put into quotation marks and printed as multiple lines in the output. Every spreadsheet program (Excel, Openoffice, Libreoffice, ...) should be able to read that into a table. I've tested it, it works fine. If you have a problem, then you'll need to attach your elogd.cfg file and the exported file in the forum and some screenshots of what your MS Excel does with it.

Hello

first of all, congrats for bring back the forum after down for sometimes, :D

but seems my old account is broken, I cant login with that anymore, so I make new account and strangely I can make identical account like the old one ahahahaha

 

okay first question :

Recently my elog setup got smtp host error, everytime someone submit log, error result that SMTP host is not found in global setting.

I dont't set mail server on my server so I cant use smtp host function, and I use register type 1 to avoid email function, but after sometimes those error occured, it seems some members accidentally check ëmail notification option

so, how to completely disable this function or maybe some work around on this error? I dont have mail server right now,

 

second

When we export logbook to CSV and open to microsoft excel, html tags still there, how to ommit html tags completely during export? and how to make nice table data from csv in elog? I saw many inconsistency there, especially on comment data

for example if I make more than two lines of logbook, second line will place in first column , not in the last column, just like the first line of comment.
