After registering, elog displays a page with the message:

However, the registration is successful. This causes confusion, and results in users registering multiple times.

 

In the elogd.conf file, I have the directive:

     Allow Config = bergman

 

Any suggestions?

 I loathe the idea of 'bumping' up one's own posting, but here I go...

 

Has anyone seen this issue, or have any solution? We've got people who register 8 or more times, since they see the "Error" message with each registration.

icon5.gif   elog entry in email footer?, posted by Mark Bergman on Wed Feb 15 17:17:27 2012 

On our system, elog sends email to all people associated with an entry. Often, people will respond via email, not through elog. I'm in the process of setting up a handler for the inbound email. However, I'd like to have the outbound mail from eLog include a 'footer' to each message the details where to go to respond.

For example, the footer might read:

To respond to this message, please click the following link:
<http://www.example.com/elog/General/6153>

Any suggestions for how to implement that?

Is anyone else seeing this? It's very confusing to new users.

Well, 5 years after opening this issue, with no responses here, I finally got into the source code and fixed it.

The problem seems to be if eLog is configured to prohibit users (non-administrators) from the "Config" option...but on the initial self-registration, the code goes to the Config screen for the user anyway...resulting in the false error message.

So, I [badly] hacked eLog to fix that, add some debugging/log messages, and to correct a typo.

Attached is the patch against release 3.1.1-1. Try not to cringe too much at my code. :)

icon8.gif   FCKEditor doesn't show up in Windows 8?, posted by John Haggerty on Wed Feb 20 02:45:45 2013 

After installing ELOG on a new Windows 8 machine, I found everything working fine... until I went to make a new entry.   New entries work... but the FCKEditor toolbars do not show up.  I tried a variety of things (start as a service, start not as a service, run as administrator), but nothing made the toolbar appear that I coumd find.  The ELCode editor toolbar appears, but the nifty FCKEditor toobar never appears.  I could not figure out how to debug FCKEditor.  Any ideas?

Thanks for reporting that problem. Indeed the elog292-1.exe distribution has a bug in the directory structure. I fixed that in elog292-2.exe, which you can download from here:

What is the differences between E-log windows version 2.9.2-2455 like we run and E-log windows version 2.9.2.-2475 ?

I cant find a changelog for this.

Best regards
