I think with the latest Imagemagick from brew (6.9.4-7) that pdf thumnails no longer get made; the attachment is there but the message "Cannot create thumbnail, please check ImageMagick installation" apears instead of the thumbnails.  I couldn't make out from elogd -v 3 why they failed, but I couldn't make out the exact convert command that was failing.  This is on MacOS 10.11.5 and I think the updated version ofImagemagick was the last thing that changed before it failed.

The setting

Use Email Heading

is only used for plain text encoding of email messages. The default is HTML encoding, which has its own heading which cannot be changed. If you want the different heading, use

Email encoding = 1

and you get it.

There are two menus, one for the list display, and one for the individual entry display. To change the first, you need

List menu commands = ...
Guest list menu commands = ...

Hello,

I am trying to set up my elog to have read-only guest access and require registration/password for users to be able to post to the elog. I've tried following the instructions here: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/faq.html#6, i.e. putting the following lines under the [global] section of my elogd.cfg file:

Menu commands = List, New, Edit, Reply, Duplicate, Find, Config, Logout, Help
Guest menu commands = List, Find, Login, Help
 

When I do this, I do get guest acccess, however the menu items are

New |  Find |  Select |  Import |  Config |  Logout |  Last day |  Help 

rather than the List, Find, Login, Help I would expect. Also, if I click on Logout, it simply does nothing, which means there's now no way to log in as a registered user.

Any thoughts on what might be wrong?

Thanks,

Greg

Aparently I've missed that one :-)

In order to test your problem it would be useful to have a minimal config file to reproduce the problem. Yours does not include any actual logbook, only [global *] sections.
