Re: Restrict Top Groups to logged-in users?

Stefan Ritt wrote:

If you move the "password file = <file>" entry around, you can get fooled by stored cookies. So after each modification, make sure to delete all cookies in your browser.

This didn't work, but after corresponding with Stefan privately, the following did:

[global]
Show Top Groups = 1

[global top_group]
Protect selection page = 1
Password file = papers.pwd

Thanks again, Stefan.

Re: hide attributes when view the logbook

Stefan Ritt wrote:

Use "list display = <attribute list>" to specify which attributes to show in the listing page. RTFM.

Thanks. "List display" is what we need.

But is there a way to control to hide or view the attributes? so that we don't need to change the elog.conf file each time.

For example, add a menu "expend" in "Find menu commands", we can click to view all the attributes or just view the attributes defined in "List Display"

Or use "{1} List Display = ....", we can view all the attributes at list page, but if selecting SunOS, only show attributes in List Display

In that case I would suggest two separate logbooks, for for SunOS and one for others. This way you can manage two separate sets of attributes.

We don't want separate logbooks, sorry for the misleading. I was trying to put two request together.

1. We have several user using the logbook. Is there a way each one has his own "List Display". In our case the user also is an attribute(SysAdmin) in logbook:

Attributes = Name, SysAdmin, Manufacturer, Model, Serial Number, Description, ENV, Main Function, Location, Memory, CPU Speed, Num CPU, Owner, Contact Name, Contact Phone, Contact Email, Bought From, Bought Date, Maintenance, Network Drop,Console Drop
Options SysAdmin = user1{1}, user2{2}, user3{3}

so one way we can think of is using "{1} List Display = ...."
"{2} List Display = ...."
"{3} List Display = ...."
because most of the time the user is interested in his own machine. Maybe you have better suggestion.

2. We need to change elog.conf file to use or not use "List Display". Is there a way to control it through web? If this is not applicable. It's fine, we won't change the view frequently.

I understood you correctly. What I was trying to say is that what you currently request possible with the current version and will not be implemented soon. But you can partly obtain what you want by having two logbooks. Make one logbook which has fewer attributes, and which will receive all SunOS entries. Make another one with all the attributes. Although this will become separate logooks, you can "think" of them as one logbook with two different sections. There is even the trick of forcing the data directory to be the same (via the "data dir") option, so both logbooks will "look" at the same database. Make one logbook the "master" having all the attributes. That's where you enter your information. Them make one or more logbooks looking at the same data, but make them read-only. Each logbook can have a separate set of attributes, access rights etc, but all of them show the same data.

I know this is not the perfect solution, but at least something which can be done already now.

attribute of type "datetime" sorted incorrectly

In order to enter different logdates we created the attribute 'Logdate' as follows:

...
Attributes = Logdate, Author, Type, Subject
Type Logdate = datetime
Preset Logdate = $date
List Display = ID, Logdate, Author, Type, Subject
Start page = ?rsort=Logdate

Time format = "%d-%b-%y %H:%M"
Date format = %d-%b-%y
...

However some unexpected things happen:
1) when sorting on Logdate the sorting is incorrect
2) I expected some kind of fieldchecking when filling this field, however you can enter any text.

What goes wrong here?

Thanks

Email subject garbaged when set?

Hi,

So I'm using the CVS version now since I was hoping this would be fixed. If I set the email subject explicitly, viz:

Use Email Subject = [BooNE-ELOG] New submission to $logbook from $Author

The email I get has:

Subject:
=?ISO-8859-1?B?W0Jvb05FLUVMT0ddIE5ldyBzdWJtaXNzaW9uIHRvIENoYXJnZWQgQ3Vyc
mVudCBQaSBQbHVzIGZyb20gQ2hyaXMgR3JlZW4=?=

... which isn't particularly illuminating.

Advice appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris.
