Sorry for the late reply. I didn't get email notification about an answer to my question :)

Actually, I just wrote <hostname> and so on for privacy. In my attempt, they have real values. 

And yet, I got as result: "Message successfully transmitted, ID=-1".

Follow up question: do I really need to install everything even though I only want the client? Or is there somewhere a package just with the client code?

Thanks

Jose

Hello,

I'm new to elog software and I could not find a solution to my configuration issue. I would like to setup a configuration file similar to MEG experiment's elog.

https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/meg/

I'm interested in creating similar to the structure: "General", "Collaboratoin", "Sub-groups (with sub-sub groups "Software", "Hardware" etc). I cannot tell if this was created by using Top Group feature.

Can someone explain how this design structure can be achieved?

Thanks,

Daniel

It was done using the "groups" feature:

Query

(FYI, OS = FreeBSD, Elog Version as showing on logon box = V3.1.4-)

Is it possible to use both Style <attribute> and Cell Style <attribute> on the same row?
For example, have a Logbook containing several Attributes and display a subset of those attributes in Summary Mode. Two attributes are of interest for this query which are part of the attributes displayed in Summary Mode, attributes ‘Assign Line’ and ‘Service’ 

If the ‘Attribute Assign Line = Assign 1’ then shade all cells in that row #808080
but if the ‘Attribute Service = 1600’ always shade that cell #7A5776 

Config file includes
Style Assign Line Assign 1 = background-color:#808080
Cell Style Service 1600 = background-color:#7A5776

The result is the row gets shaded #808080 if ‘Assign Line = Assign Line 1’ but fails to shade the Service cell colour #7A5776 if it equals 1600 

Extract from HTML source for the ‘1600’ cell when both conditions are correct shows both background-color values are present and the cell is styled the first value listed (which is Style Assign Line Assign 1 = background-color:#808080 but I always want #7A5776 for cell Service when it is of value 1600)
.
<td class="list2" style="background-color:#808080" style="background-color:#7A5776"><a href="../Daily/1">1600</a></td>  

Thank you,

David

Hi,

I am trying to implement a Custom input forms by following this  https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Contributions/49. Is there a way to also insert an image or files to it? I want to take a snap from the iPad and want that to go as an attachment or attach a file(s) into the form. Is there a way to do that?

Your suggestions are highly appreciated.

Regards,

sjena

When you submit a "normal" elog entry, you can click on "Choose file" to add an attachment. On a mobile device, you will then be asked to select a photo from your library or take one with your camera. You can do the same on a custom form. You have to extract the code from the normal submissoin form and program it on your custom page. It needs however some work and might not be straight forward.

Thanks Stefan,

I am not yet able to figure out how attachment submission is done, I am trying. It would be helpful if you can refer me to some pointer.

I have built different top groups for different departments. But occasionally these different top groups have the same logbook name, say 'Maintenance Log'. So is there a way I can have the same logbook name under different 'Top Groups', rather than rename these logbooks as 'Department1 Maintenance Log' all the way to 'Department_X Maintenance Log'?
