Sorry, I overlooked your first question.

Sticky entries are not directly supported, but you can get the same (maybe even better) using following scheme:

- Use an attribute, like the "Type" in the example logbook, and add an option "Sticky"

- Use "quick filter = type". This shows up a filter box on the listing at the top right. If you select "Sticky" there, a listing with all sticky entries will show up.

- Use a different style for such an entry with "Style Type Sticky = background-color:red". This makes all sticky entries show up with a red background.

Danke Stefan, I check it out.

Hmm, I'd like to use the style command, but it has no effect if I put it into the config. If I understood it right, it should be done this way:

Options Status = Open, Info, Resolved, Suspended, Waiting, Important
Style Status Important = background-color:red
Style Status Resolved = background-color:green

They are just showing up with the default style. Am I doing something wrong?

 EDIT: Just downloaded the latest version and now it works. My old one was 2058, BUT, how can I change multiple styles, e.g. background and font color at the same time? Komma does not seem to work and two style lines also not.

You can separate them with a semicolon. Just like:

Style Category Info = background-color:lightblue;font-weight:bold

Note that you cannot change the font color, since it is a link, and that is defined in the default.css file under

/* standard link colors and decorations */
a:link { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:none }
a:visited { color:#800080; text-decoration:none }
a:hover { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }
a:active { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }
a:focus { color:#0000FF; text-decoration:underline }

 By using the configuration option "Bottom Text Login = ..."

Stefan,

I have defined the "Bottom Text Login = ..." in each Logbook Configuration section. But when I use this option in the Global Section, ELOG fails to start.

 That's strange. I just tried myself following configuration file:

[global]
port = 8080
Bottom text = <center>Hello</center>
Bottom text login = <center>Login Hello</center>
Password file = passwd

[demo1]
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Page Title = ELOG - $subject

[demo2]
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject

and everything works fine as can be seen from the login screen:

so can you check if above file works for you?

[global]
port = 8080
Bottom text = Hello
Bottom text login = Login Hello
Password file = passwd

Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Page Title = ELOG - $subject

 Hi Stefan,

Hope you have enjoyed the Christmas week.

Sorry for the delay.... I have tested your configuration and it worked for me as well. 

In order to determine, which of my settings is causing the problem, I had to activate each individual entry "one by one" and check if the error re-occured. I finally identified following entry "Protect Selection page = 1"

The error also occurs if I change your configuration into:

[global]
port = 8080
Bottom text = <center>Hello</center>
Bottom text login = <center>Login Hello</center>
Password file = passwd
Protect Selection page = 1

[demo1]
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Page Title = ELOG - $subject

[demo2]
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
 

Can you advise if I'm missing an entry in order for "Protect Selection page = 1" to work?

"Schönen Rutsch ins neue Jahr".

Barend
