Last default = <n>, posted by Alan Grant on Mon Apr 29 02:41:15 2019

According to the doc on the setting "Last default = <n>" it is intended to restrict Quick Filter searches to the last (n) days of entries,
however when I add "Last default = 28" to config it still returns entries far older then 28 days when using the filter search. Am I misunderstanding,
or implementing it wrong? We must restrict searches through QF to reduce load. |

Indeed the description of the "Last default = <n>" option is not clear. I just updated that. If you have a quick filter "Date",
then you have different options there like "Last day", "Last 3 days", "Last week", "Last month", "Last 3 months",
"Last 6 months", "Last year". Each of these options has an underlying number of days, which are 1, 3, 7, 31, 92, 182, 364. In the "Last |

I just changed to Last default = 31 and even restarted elogd.exe but it still finds a given string older than 31 days. Also the default Select Period
box value next to the QF's remains at All Entries. My understanding is it shoud behave like Find, where Show Last Default = 31 should default
the display to Month, and also only search within the last month of entries. |

It works for me. Have you tried other values (1, 3, 7, ..)? The key is that the quick filter changes to "Last month". If it does not, there
must be some trivial error, like type in elogd.cfg, you modify the wrong logbook, have a very old version of elog etc.

You say "Show Last Default = 31". This options applies only to the "Find" page, the option "Last Default = 31" works for
the quick filter. Probably you have to change "Show Last Default" to "Last Default".

I was just referring to "Show last default" (under Find) as a parallel example of how I assume "Last default" should
function on the List page.
I also tried values 3 and 7 but "All entries" still displays in the "List period" box. A restart of elogd makes no difference. |

I just tried your elogd.cfg, and it works fine for me. So no idea what is wrong in your case.

Ok thanks for taking the time to try it out. I definitely still show "All entries" in any case, so I will continue to try to resolve on
my end and if I find the cause or solution I will share back on the forum.
First though, I noticed you ran 3.1.4 whereas I'm still on 3.1.2. I'm also on Windows Server 2016 and IE 11. Do you think any |
