Hello,

Is it possible to remove the "active" checkbox a user sees when they click on "config"?  Alternatively, is it possible to have a new user arrive directly at the logbook they chose, rather than starting out at the config screen?

We are running elog-3.1.1 on SL6 with webserver authentication.  For the most part this works great, but somehow a few users become inactive after they login for the first time.  They claim they didn't un-check "active," but I can't think of any other way this would happen.

Many thanks,
Devin

Could you implement a 'hide attribute' and 'sort attribute' config option?
While sort is probably not so easy to do the hide option would already 
be very useful.  What I want to do is to use elog to collect bibtex entries
which are then used to generate a bibtex file.  So, e.g. if the entry 
type 'Article' is selected I would like that all fields that do not make
sense are hidden.  Currently I just lock them.  The config looks like
this:

Attributes                  = Login, Bibtex Key, Entry Type, Address,
Annote, Author, Booktitle, Chapter, Crossref, Edition, Editor, Howpublished,
Institution, Journal, Key, Month, Note, Number, Organization, Pages,
Publisher, School, Series, Title, Type, Volume, Year, URL, Short Comment
Options Entry Type          = Article{1}, Book{2}, Booklet{3}, InBook{4},
InCollection{5}, InProceedings{6}, Manual{7}, MastersThesis{8}, Misc{9},
PhDThesis{a}, Proceedings{b}, TechReport{c}, Unpublished{d}
Required Attributes         = Entry Type
; ARTICLE
{1} Comment Author          = [required]
{1} Comment Journal         = [required]
{1} Comment Title           = [required]
{1} Comment Year            = [required]
{1} Locked Attributes       = Address, Annote, Booktitle, Chapter, Crossref,
Edition, Editor, Howpublished, Institution, Key, Organization, Publisher,
School, Series, Type


Instead of Locking the attributes, hiding them altogether would make the
entry form look much nicer.  
A further improvement would be to sort the attributes, e.g. for author I
would sort the like this, i.e. the more important entries first:

{1} Sort Attributes    = Author, Title, Journal, Volume, Pages, Year, Month,
Number, Note

Attributes not mentioned in the sort line could then be displayed 
in any order. 

i cannot view images in elog, either as attachments or as icons,

safari 3.2.1 mac os x 10.5.6

Thank you

I'm configuring this great application in order to replace the previous
elogbook my community is using (in the accelerator's world).

One of the main and mandatory feature they cannot renunce is the possibility
of displaying every attached image just inline, without having to click over
the file name or to enter the entry view (in which the attachment can
already be displayed inline) ...  

- images (and hopefully ps, eps, pdf) be displayed inline just after the
text body of the message in the main "List" view
- possibility to configure the scale of this view
- possibility of build some thumbs in order to save BW and time


Is there any way to do it or any plan to implement such a feature in the
very next future ? 

 Hi,

file:\\external_computer\directory
