icon5.gif   list of 500 files, posted by chris williams on Sun Jun 24 02:38:31 2007 
How can I have my list accept over 500 entries? I tried increasing the elogd.c (max_n_list)file as stated but the compiler gives me errors. Please help
icon5.gif   link to attachment within html editor, posted by Celeste Torkzaban on Mon Oct 9 10:43:46 2023 SCR14.PNG

Hello,
I like the ELcode feature that lets you easily make an internal link to an attachment in the same post. However, I wasn't able to get this to work in the html editor, even though it's possible to use the ELcode format to link to another post in the logbook. When I type in elog :/1 in the html editor (without the space) and submit (even with an attachment present), it weirdly gets changed and shows up as 61/1 in the submitted elog, without any hyperlink. As far as I know we're using the standard elog code and only modified css parameters. Is there another syntax to link to attachments in html?
Testing it out here: 69699/1  (elog :/1 without the space turned into 69699/1)

icon5.gif   link loss and crash of elogd.exe, posted by Ulrich Trüssel on Mon May 9 17:59:09 2005 
Just upgraded from stable running 2.5.2-2 to 2.5.9-2 in case of the usable
Duplicate function. After the problem discribed below i made a new, clean
installation again and played araound with the demo logbook, copying my
testlogbook (part of a real used and under 2.5.2-2 working logbook) into the
demo cfg file. 

ia figured out two serious problems:

1. If I copy the following section to the global into the demo lgbook,
elogd.exe crashes emediatly ewhile starting as a prozess:

[global]
Language = German
Theme = default
logbook tabs = 1
main tab = INHALT
welcome title = <b><big>Ulrich Rolf Trüssel</big></b>
Adressverwaltung (Geschäft & Privat)
Mensch-Tier Coaching&trade;&nbsp;&nbsp;-&nbsp;&nbsp;Mensch-Hund Coaching&trade;
Interessengemeinschaft Familienhund&reg; - Regionalgruppe Zentralschweiz
Lorenz Tierschule port = 8080 Theme = default Message Width = 100 Message Height = 25 Filtered browsing = 1 Suppress default = 2 Suppress Email on Edit = 0 Email Format = 0 Filtered browsing = 1 HTML default = 3 Reverse sort = 1 2. problem (the ting) that made me playing with teh demo cfg: There are totally 8 logbooks running, but just one has this strange problem of not giving a link to to the datasets in full and summary mode. I cutted down all the stuff back to this only lines: [Adresse2] Attributes = Kundensegment, Duzis, Hauptadresse, Selektion, Sperre, Adresse, Unterlagenversand, Empf. gegeben, Gruppe, Mitglied, URT, IGFH, Letzte Anmeldung, IGFH Gruppe, IGFH JB, Anrede, Titel, Briefanrede, Vorname, Name, Firma, Abteilung, Adresse Zusatz, Strasse, Landeskennung, PLZ, Ortschaft, Postfach, Postfach PLZ, Postfach Ort, Telefon Geschäft, Telefon Privat, Telefax, Telefon Mobil, EMail, HomePage, Funktion, Beruf, Geburtstag, Name Hund, Rasse, Sex, Wurfdatum, Anmeldung, Impfbüchlein, Welpenkurs, Erziehungskurs, Hundesport, Bestätigung, OCCH LN, Andere Kurse, Weitere Hunde/Tiere, Referenzen, KlientIn/KundIn List Display = Name, Vorname and got still the same problem. if i create a new logbook it will works, also ut works under 2.5.2-2 but not longer under 2.5.3 up (even not 2.5.9-2). any idea? mening this may be a VERY basic logbook... trued with list display etc. around, nothinh happen. Need to go back to 2.5.2-2 where this wasn't a problem? thanjs for any idea of this to problems...
icon5.gif   line breaks in 'Subject', posted by Evinrude Motor on Sun Aug 13 20:24:41 2023 

Certain characters contained in the 'Subject' will cause the text to split into multiple lines .

For example if  I enter "My Subject" in the 'Subject' field it is displayed as

My

Subject

If I enter "My_Subject" it is displayed as 

My_Subject

Is there any way to change this so no line breaks are created ?

icon5.gif   length of fields, posted by Paul Harrington on Wed Feb 23 13:02:59 2005 
When creating/updating entries in elog, excluding the main text field are 
there any limits on the size of the other fields?

many thanks

icon5.gif   length of condition names, posted by Harry Martin on Wed Dec 2 22:45:16 2020 

The documentation describing the use of conditionals uses a single character (letter or number) for names of conditions.  I don't see any update/change to that rule anywhere in the docs.

I have been using multi-character condition names successfully.   I find these are easier to use since they can be more descriptive of each condition.   It works, but I am concerned I may be doing something that might not be supported going forward.   (It is simple enough to change these, but I'd prefer to know if this practice is acceptable.)

Thank you, again, for this fine (and, may I add, fun?) tool.  I'm having a good time with it!

icon4.gif   last x link TEXT, posted by H. Scheit on Fri Jul 12 10:18:21 2002 
The last x link TEXT now shows up like this

   'Last 20 entries?mode=threaded'

I can not reproduce this with the elogdemo logbook, however.
icon5.gif   large attachment seems to hang elogd?, posted by Haitao Yu on Tue Mar 7 21:41:28 2006 
Hello,

I am trying to attach somewhat large file (4-15MB files tested) with my messages but it seems to hang the elogd server for a really long time (30-100minutes). The file upload was done pretty soon (within a few seconds), then the elogd process seems to be busy doing something, using around 50MB of memory and 95% of CPU time, and stop respond to the requests. I can read the logbook with another copy of elogd running on another port, and I can see (and download) the uploaded file. I am wondering what could cause the problem --- and could it be related to the problem of not setting up the SMTP server right? Thanks for any suggestion!

Haitao

P.S. I read in some old message that if we want to upload very large files, we have to change the WEB_BUFFER_SIZE in elogd.c, however this parameter is no longer in v2.6.1. Is there something similiar I have to change?
