It looks like the URL pageN?cmd=List does not work, while pageN works.
Any hints?
Same behaviour can be seen also with Discussion forum on Elog site. |
I don't understand. I tried on the Discussion forum:
1. View message, for example http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/1506
2. Click List, which takes me to http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/
3. Click Next, which takes me to http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/page2
Then I really see page2, not the last page. So what do you do differently? |

Re: Getting back from "Find" mode, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Nov 15 12:50:37 2005

| Yoshio Imai wrote: | There is one question regarding the "Find" function of the elog. Clicking onto "Search" takes the user to the list view on only those entries that match the search conditions. Since we use the list view in "Full" mode by default, this usually is enough to give us an overview of the event we looked for.
Is there a more direct way to get back to the unfiltered list view than selecting an entry and go to "List" or using "Find" again and clicking on "Back"? |
I can easily add another button for that, will put it on the wish list. |

And this does not work... |
You use an old version of elog. Please upgrade to the 2.6.0-beta5 which you can obtain from

Please tell me for what purpose you need two identical logbooks. Maybe what you want can be achieved in a simpler way.

Have you tried to start your elog with the start command under Widnows, like start elog .... This is the equivalent of starting a process in the background under linux.
| Carlos Mateo wrote: | | 2.- I tried to run 2 servers on different ports using the same elogd.cfd file, calling the second server from elog. This "almost" works: the logbook files are updated, but the original server must be restarted to "see" the changes. |
This is because you use the same data directory for both servers. If one server writes a new entry to a file, the other server does not realize this. Only when you restart it, it rescans the whole data directory and gets aware of the new entry. Try using separate data directories for the two servers.

Parsing attributes is not implemented and therefore will not work. |

I had a nowrap statement in the MOptions check boxes, which should not be there. I removed that and now the options are wrapped nicely: The problem is that in HTML, the check boxes and the associated text are sometimes ripped apart, i.e. the box appears at the right corner and the text at the next line. That's why I had the nowrap statement there.This fix will be contained in the next release of elog. |

| Yoshio Imai wrote: | | Is it possible to install a "passive" elog mirror? We want to allow members of another institute to browse our logbook, but the connection is rather slow. The idea is now to set up an elog mirror at their site for faster access. Still, we should be the only ones who can add and edit the entries, so the update mechanism needs to be restricted in one direction. Is this possible at all? I didn't find any clues on that in the documentation ... |
This is not implemented directly, but you can achieve it in several ways:

"Today" is selected by default if you pop-up a new calendar, so just click on the selected day. |
