donno if a "List Display <Attribute>" could be *the* solution ...


That's a good idea. Unfortunately, "List Display" is already used to specify which attributes to display in list mode. So I changed "Display <attibute>" to "Change <attribute>" and added "List change <attribute>", just to be different from "List display". In principle "List display =" and "List display <attibute> =" can be distinguished by elog, but it could be confusing to have the same option for two different things. The downside is that everybody using "Display <attribute>=" has to change this to "Change <attribute>=".


It works perfectly now Smile thank you Stefan

No, that's not true. A
Locked attributes = Author

will do the job as well.

I can't argue how it works ...
The following code will assure that, if the HTML generated by elog would be modified by hand by a malicious user the server can still preset the author field with the right $long_name? 
Locked attributes = Author
Preset on Reply Author = $long_name

how works in details the "Locked Attribute" parameter then ?? ...

Ok, you're right. But that requires quite some knowledge to change the generated HTML by hand. So for paranoiac people the "Subst" might be better. Actually you could have both the "Preset on Reply" and the "Subst on Reply", so on the reply entry form one sees already the correct author.

Thanks so much. But the new feature seems not working.


Are you sure you got the latest CVS version and recompiled correctly?

I tried with following config:
[global]
port = 8080

[demo]
Attributes = Name, SysAdmin, OS, Manufacturer, Model, Serial Number, Description, Main Function, Location, Memory, CPU Speed, Num CPU, Owner, Contact Name, Contact Phone, Contact Email, Bought From, Bought Date, Maintenance, Network Drop, Console Drop
Options OS = SunOs{1}, Linux{2}, Aix
{1} Show Attributes = Name, SysAdmin, OS, Manufacturer, Model, Serial Number, Description

Then I added two entries, where OS = SunOS and Aix. As soon as I select SunOS, the attributes except those listed in {1} disappear. The same is true then for the single entry display. Here is the one with the Aix:

and here with SunOS:

So can you reproduce this?


Thanks. But what I want is to hide the unwanted attributes at summary view, not just hide them when I click on entry.

Here is the example, can i hide the attributes at this page when I select SunOS:

No you can't do that.

Assume that you have different types of entries, ones where your unwanted attributes are missing and ones where they are present. If you would hide them, they would be missing even for the entries where you want them. Or you would change the table layout for every line, meaning that attributes which are common in all entries do not line up nicely below each other.

An other approach would be to make elog hide those columns which do not contain any value in the whole page, but that is not (yet) implemented.

I may have all the attributes in logbook to keep a full record of all the machine. But for daily use, some of the attibutes we are not using so often. Too many attributes will make the window so big that can not be hold in one screen which is the reason why I want to hide some of them. Of course the hidden attributes have data, but those data are rarely used so we'd rather hide them.

Since "show attributes" prevent from inputing attributes, may not be suitable in this case. We appreciate if you can impletement a new feature like "view attibutes" which do not affect adding new entry, just hide attributes at summary view.
