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"

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.


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.

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.


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.

Is there a way to not use the emoticons, but at the same time use the ELCode?

An example would be to add a slash before the emoticon code like this: /:)

Thanks,
Dan


There are two ways:

a) put a "\" in front of the emoticon like this: \:) -> :)

b) put a [code] tag around your text. Any text inside the [code] tag is not interpretet like:

[code]
Hello ;) [I]italics[/i]
[/code]
note that the trick with the "\" only works in the current CVS version of elog.

I just noticed in the changelog that my apparent problem with MOptions may have been fixed. I will try a newer version and see if it works.

It did.

Keep up the good work.

Dan Chitwood wrote:
We are having trouble on our logbook with posts appearing twice. Both posts contain the same ID number, time, etc. This most often occurs when the e-log entry is being written for an extended period of time (ie. more than 30 minutes), but I don't know if that is the root cause of the problem. It may also be related to posts that are edited after an initial posting. Could this be due to an improper setting in our config file?


Besides the trivial case that people hit the submit button twice I can only imagine one possible cause: If you edit an existing entry, there is a button Resubmit as new entry at the bottom. If that button is checked, the old entry gets deleted and a new one gets submitted. If the delete of the old entry fails for some reason, you could maybe get two entries.

May I suggest following: Use a very simple config file (like the demo one from the distribution) and see if you can reproduce the problem. If not, add you config options one by one to the config file, and see at which option the problem starts. This way you might find the cause of it.

Your problem has not been reported by anybody else so far, so chances are high that it's related to a config setting.
