Re: Email notification does not work

Dinesh Bapat wrote:

I have SMTP server that requires authentication

Whenever a new user 'self registers' to E-log, I get an automated email saying so. Hence, the SMTP setting are correct and working.

However, for any entry made to log, no email notification is generated. error '5.5.4 Invalid Address'

suppress notification checkbox is 'unchecked'

Kindly help.

Turn on logging with

Logfile = elog.log

then you will see all communication betwen elogd and the SMTP server in the logfile. You probably will see the source of the error there.

Can you post an example here? If I try a
veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery
 long line, it's shown correctly. You just have to scroll right in your browser.

Re: Omitting some fields in e-mail

There is the option "Email format", which lets you specify what to show. Try 

Email format = 27

Re: changing the default to plain text rather than elcode

I, too, found that this elcode.js file was missing. However, it seems to be present on this demo site!

so, I downloaded it from this very demo site, and saved it to my system (in the root of your resources folder). This (so far) seems to have made the "ELCode" formatting mode work properly.

This is the URL I used. It seems that this file was ommitted from the latest distribution:

http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/elcode.js

Hope that helps!

the lines are displayed as expected on the screen, but they are cut off when the browser window is printed via
the browsers print function.
This did not occur in a previous version (V2.5.6).

Re: Long lines in printout

Your problem is related with the fact that I changed the formatting from fixed font to proportional font ("ELCode"). This gives you three options:

Enter your elog entries in "plain" text, which brings you back to the old mode
Change the page setup of your browser. Mozilla Firefox has File/Page Setup/Shrink to fit page and left and right margin
Reduce the entry window via the config setting "Message width"

Email Notification and Icons

I have two questions:

1) When sending out email notifications, is there a way to surpress the entries that have been left on the logbook? I want to be notified that someone has posted, but not receive the posting in the email.

2) Is there a way to set icons to users, so that each user has a defined icon? I set up a new attribute called: Author Icon and then tried using conditional attributes to have an icon set to a specific user. When I tested by posting, in the Author Icon section I didn't have an icon, instead a text box appeared with the name of the icon.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You specify what is sent by email notification with the Email format = <n> option. Adding the right numbers there, you can send only the notification, but not the contents or attachments. An alternative is to use the RSS functionality in Elog. With an RSS reader, you only see the subject, and can download the whole body upon request.

No, this is not possible without modification of elog. In principle you can tell elog that a certain attribute is an icon by using the "Ioptions author icon = icon1.gif, icon2.gif"), but then you get a list if possible icons each time from which you have to select. Not very convenient. The concept of an Avatar is not preent in elog, you bette choose a bulletin board system for that.
