icon5.gif   New Message Formatting and Default Settings, posted by Gary Clayson on Thu Jul 7 04:44:12 2005 
Hello All. Please Help! How can I turn off the formatting controls above the message text when making a new or reply entry? I included the flat 'Default Encoding = 1' in my config file, but it seems to have no effect. The log has been set up to suppress all email notification, as SMTP is not being used at my location (MS Exchange Server is being used). Also How can I turn off the icon selection panel to the left of a new message text box? And, finally, is it possible to turn off the Suppress Email notification checkbox AND not send emails? Forgive me for asking yet another - but the same question about turning off the Encoding buttons - Is there some method of setting I can enter into the config file to turn off the Encoding and default it to text entry only?

Forgive this entry being so long, I'm new to using ELOG; Thanks Stefan for an incredible application. Well thought out and elegant. Keep up the good work.

PS Reworking the source code, then recompiling it, is not a viable option for me at this time.

Can someone please enter a comprehensive list of the commands eLog will honor. I'm trying to build a 'decent' start page and am not totally familiar with eLog just yet. Thanks Stefan for an awesome application. The documentation is really decent, too. I just have been unable to locate a list of all commands available.
Thanks in advance.

there's a link in the main elog web page.. it's under the Admin guide and it is the elog.cfg syntax guide


thanks for the advice. DuH on me, I just needed to read the syntax page a little more closely.

I just downloaded and installed beta2 and most of my questions have been answered. I now have a new question: What are the possible settings with the 'Default Encoding' flag? Can I please get a rundown on this one as the config syntax page does not list this one. Thanks in Advance.

Hello All. Stefan, would it be possible to add one more option to the Suppress Default flag? I'd appreciate a setting that would suppress emails being sent and remove the option from the page. Or, has this been accomplished? And, if so, what is that setting. Thanks in advance!! Keep up the great work.

The config page does list this one, but you have to access the online one since I have no access to modify the one you have on your hard disk Wink

You need the current CVS version which has this implemented, or you wait for the next official release.

MS Exchange Server has and SMTP server inside, I use this all the time.

By clicking on the smiley on the top row next to "FONT".

You can put a
Suppress email to users = 1
into the config file, but the checkbox will still be there, but non-functional. Maybe I should remove it in that case...

You are not supposed to rework the source code, but if you want the cutting edge features, you need to recompile from CVS or wait for official releases.

I added
Suppress default = 3

which always suppresses email notifications. The addition is under CVS and will be included in the next release.
