 | Fergus Lynch | flynch@alternativenetworks.com | Question | Windows | V2.6.2-169 | Retain original ELOG id when moving an entry to an archive weblog |
Hi There,
We have a number of weblogs where we regular archive off 'completed' entries to a separate archive weblog:
Is it possible to retain the original ELOG id when moving an entry to an archive weblog, or have a locked field which holds the original id which we could subsequently reference in the archive?
Many Thanks
Fergus |

First of all, a reference to the original ELOG entry would not help if it's moved into another logbook (archive). Keeping the id is not possible technically, since it severs as a kind of primary key, which must be unique etc. There is however the possibility to create a "secondary" ID, using the Preset xxx = ### functionality. The attribute xxx will have increasing numbers just like the primary ID. You even can combine this with the current year or month (see documentation). The problem now is how to reference such an entry. You cannot just type elog:123 as this only references the primary ID. You would have to do a "hidden" search such as
http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/?xxx=###
where ### is your secondary id. This will of course be slower because if you click on such a reference, your whole archive will be searched for. |

 | Grant Jeffcote | grant@jeffcote.org | Question | Windows | | Conditional E-Mail Attributes |
Stefen, is it possible to change an email option using conditional attributes?
I have a need under certain conditions to send an email in plain text (Encoding type 1) but as type 2 under other conditions, it seems when I do the conditional string is ignored and the global entry is used.
Can all email options be actioned using a conditional string, it only seems to work on some?
Shown here are some of the options that would be nice to set under 'conditions'.
Some appear to already work that way.
{2}Email attributes = xxx, xxy,
{2}Email All = dee@sdf.com, def@sdf.com,
{2}Preset text = This is a test
{2}Email Encoding = 1
{2}Use Email Subject = ELOG-ID $message id - Test Company
{2}Use Email Heading = Test Company Operations Report
{2}Use Email From = admin@sdf.com
{2}Suppress Email to users = 1
{2}Email Format = 27
{2}Suppress Email on edit = 1
{2}Suppress default = 2
{2}Display Email recipients = 1
{2}Omit Email To = 1
Any help would be appreciated. |

 | Checker Anderson | checker@checkeranderson.com | Question | Windows | 2.6.2 | Cannot get email to work at all, configuation problem? |
I an new to elog and the only thing I cannot seem to configure correctly is my SMTP information. Here is a sample of my config file:
SMTP host = checkeranderson.com
SMTP username = Checker@realchecker
SMTP Password = eWFod2Vo
I host my own mail server which uses authentication and my password was set using -t on the command line. With SMTP host = I have tried smtp.checkeranderson.com (which is how my mail program puts it) and mail.checkeranderson.com which is how my DNS server has it. The user name and password are correct. When I edit or reply to any topic I get the message "Error sending Email via "checkeranderson.com"" I have struggled with this for hours and I know I must be missing something that would be obvious to anyone else. Can anyone help me? |

Start the ELOG server manually in a DOS box with the "-v" flag, like
> cd \Program Files\ELOG
> elogd.exe -v
(you first might have to stop the elog service via "net stop elogd"). Now you see all communication between the browser and elog and between elog and the SMTP server. If you now try to send an email, you will see the detailed error information returned by your SMTP server. |

Here is what I am seeing when I use the -v option. I do not recognize what is generating the error message, but pperhaps you will. Thanks.

| Okay, I got it working but I had to change the authentication method of my mail server to Pop before SMTP. I do not know why the username/password doesn't work - it does work with Outlook Express. I would rather use the username/password method, but atleast things are working now. |

 | Silvia Borghi | silvia.borghi@cern.ch | Question | | | Author in duplicate message |
When I ask to duplicate a message, the author of the duplicated message is the one of the original message.
How can I put as author the name of the person that is login?
I tried to use the command Preset on Duplicate Author or Subst on Duplicate Author, but it does not work.
Here is my config:
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on Duplicate Author = $long_name
Preset on Reply Author = $long_name
Subst on Duplicate Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author |
