The easiest is to put a horizontal line into the entry ...


...like this one. This can even be done via "Preset text =" so it comes by default on a new entry.

icon5.gif   Specifying the size of am image attachment, posted by Val Schmidt on Mon Apr 6 20:46:42 2009 

 Hello,

I'm curious, is it possible to specify (perhaps by default) the rendered size of an attached image. For example, I'd like all images uploaded to be scaled to 100% of the browser window size so a large image is not most off the screen. What I want is to specify the width="100" attribute of the <img /> tag, but it's not clear 1) how do to this for an attachment and 2) if it might be possible to do this in the config file for all img attachments.

 

Thanks,

 

Val

When you use the ImageMagick package, attached images are scaled to a predefined size using the option "Thumbnail size = ...". See the documentation for that option for details.

icon8.gif   Missing icons when running trough Apache proxy, elogd version 2.75 , posted by Kristian Rune Larsen on Wed Apr 1 11:15:29 2009 

Hi

Tested this using the 2.6.1 version which comes packed with ubuntu-dapper and a 2.7.5 version I've compiled from source.

If I compile the 2.7.5 version from source and start it using

sudo /usr/local/sbin/elogd -c /usr/local/elog/elogd.cfg

 

config snippets below

---------------------------------

/usr/local/elog/elogd.cfg:

[global]
port = 8080
;url = http://solsikker.dmi.dk/elog/

[demo]
Theme = default
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Options Category = General, Hardware, Software, Network, Other
Extendable Options = Category
Required Attributes = Author, Type
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type
------------------------------------

The icons show up !!

 

If I go through an apache proxy (config snippets below)

----------------------------------------

/usr/local/elog/elogd.cfg:

[global]
port = 8080
url = http://solsikker.dmi.dk/elog/

[demo]
Theme = default
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Options Category = General, Hardware, Software, Network, Other
Extendable Options = Category
Required Attributes = Author, Type
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type

From apache conf

ProxyPass /elog/ http://solsikker.dmi.dk:8080/
ProxyPassReverse /elog/ http://solsikker.dmi.dk:8080/
<Proxy *>
        Order deny,allow
        allow from all
</Proxy>
-------------------------------------

The icons are missing !!!

The icons a showing up when using apache and the 2.6.1 elog version.

icon5.gif   Attachment not downloaded when elog is mirrored ?, posted by Franck Sabatie on Tue Mar 31 15:16:58 2009 

Hello,

I just mirrored a logbook and noticed attachments are missed.

On another similar note, when an email notification is sent and the post has attachment, the attachment show up in the email BUT there is nothing in them.

Anything special I should know about those attachments ?

Thank you,

F.Sabatié

 

icon3.gif   Email notifications not working properly, posted by Stefan Ritt on Thu Mar 26 17:30:23 2009 

 I just found out that email notifications only worked for the first 50 users of this forum. So if you registered only recently, you might not have received any notification. This was a bug inside elogd which I hope to have fixed now (this entry notification will show...). If you get the first notification and do not want this, log in to the ELOG Forum, click on "Config" and remove the checkmarks from the logbooks you do not want to get notifications.

You can use the "Comment = ..." option to add something below "Logbuch" like I did here:

 Hi,

I use the "Comment=..." option to add the OS-Version. For a better overview it would be nice to add a new column for IP.

If this is not possible I use the "Comment...= option.

It is currently not possible to have a new column. But you can add some <br> tags inside your comment, then you IP will show up on a new line after the OS-Version.

Yes, this goes into the elogd.cfg file. Just add a line like:

[logbook]

Comment = OS-Version<br><i>192.160.0.1</i>

Then you will get something like this:

First, you need "Restrict edit = 1" in your config file. Then for each edit operation the system checks the currently logged in user against the "Author" attribute. Therefore, the "Author" attribute must contain the full user name. This can be achieved by adding

Preset Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author

as described in the manual.
