How to lock a specific entry?, posted by Manoel Couder on Tue Sep 14 17:48:52 2021

Hi All,
I am using elog to track technical changes in an experiment but also to log what experimentalist are doing during an experiment. For the latter,
I would like to be able to lock those entries from being further edited after the expertiment if finished. Is there a way to do that? |

You can either lock all entries or none. So I would propose you set up two logbooks, one for technical changes which is not locked and one for what experimentalists
are doing which is locked. Locking can be done a certain time after an entry has been made (like 1h, 1d, 1 month etc.). Or you simply make the logbook
read-only. |

Can the size of the application log file affect performance? |

If the logbook files are getting big, searching text in entries can take quite some time. But if you have a log file logging all activities, that should
not slow down elog since the server just appends at the end of that file which is a quick operation.

Adding entries without being logged in stopped working with attachments, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Sat Aug 28 21:32:09 2021

Hi Stefan (et al),
we have several logbooks that allow to add new entries without logging in first.
That still works, as long as these entries don't have any attachments. |
Logging Main page entries, each with multiple ongoing events , posted by Alan Grant on Wed Jul 21 16:16:29 2021

Is there any way to log child events on the detail pages for a fixed number of entries on the main page? For example, I have 15 vehicles to enter on
the main page, ID'd by Vehicle Number. Within each of those entries I will be logging ongoing repair service entries with certain attributes.
So how might I design this concept without having repeating vehicle entries on the main page for every service event, and preferably without |

Hi,
I have a logbook with guest access and guest can also enter a new entry (in config: Guest List Menu commands = New, Find, Select, Login).
For other reason in a global section, I put |

The function of "Drop attachments here..." is only for root user? I'd like it could be used by all users. |

I can't confirm this behavoiur. In our instance, every user can use the attachment function of the elog.
Either through "Drag&Drop" or "Browse&Upload" in the entry editor.
What do you mean by "root" user? |

I just used my own account to test the "Drag&Drop" function in this forum , and it failed. In our case, we need to upload
ten more images into logbook at once, it's more effective to use "Drag&Drop" than "Browse&Upload" feature for "Browse&Upload"
only can choose one attachment at once, but "Drag&Drop" can choose several attachments at once. The admin user can use this |

In my testings I didn't found this behaviour, but my collegues also reported this issue.
So I searched for the difference between my test setup and the production logbooks.
I believe the "restrict edit = 1" config option may be responsible for this behaviour. |

I could figure out the bug. A fix can be found in this commit.

Looks good, I merged the pull request. |

Thanks for the merge.
I found a more general solution, as there could be the posibility to have the author as "select" or "radio box" input in the
form, where the fix breaks. |

Timezome problem, posted by Maxim on Wed Jun 23 15:28:00 2021

Good afternoon!
The elog does not see the time zone. It displays UTC + 0. When I transfer old entries to a new compiled log, they are displayed 3 hours earlier
(my time zone is UTC + 3). When creating a new record, it creates them in the UTC + 0. |

Dear, sir! There is a problem with a configuration file.
The code was compiled by Cygwin (gcc-core, gcc-g++, make, gdb, libssl-dev). After a compilation a reference to our own css-file was written
in configuration file and css-file was included in a folder “themes/default” of the project. |

Hello Maxim,
I just stumbled on a similar issue. Also with a self-compiled elogd on Ubuntu.
We also use a custom css and by clicking on the "New" or "Reply" or "Duplicate" the elog generates the entry editor. |
