Got it to work, manipulating the files was not that hard once I got over the FEAR factor.  Good luck with the speed of light thing.

Hi,

Is it possible to remove the "demo" logbook?

If I rename the section in elogd.cfg , it complains:

Error: logbook "demo" not defined in elog.conf Please use your browser's back button to go back

But there are other logbooks it can show instead. Is the "demo" logbook hardcoded in elogd?

 I now upgraded to ver. 2.7.8, but I still cannot remove or disable the demo logbook.

The logbook name is in the URL of your browser. In the demo installation, there is a link in the start menu pointing to http://localhost:8080/demo.  If you rename your logbook to something else, you have to change the URL accordingly. The simplest thing is to point it to http://localhost:8080, then you will be presented with a list of available logbooks.

Hello all,

I just found elog which is a great piece  of software! I'm implementing it for use to log my shortwave listening contacts. The problem that I have is I'm moving over a current log to elog which already has a date of when the record was created, which is important.I renamed the old date to day to upload the log into elog. My problem is I don't need to see elog's ID# or date/time stamp of when the log was created seeing it's already in my data. My question is, is there any way to not show elog's ID# and date/time stamp or would I need to create a tab and if so could someone provide a config file where I could see how the tab was implemented. I've attached a screenshot of what it looks like so far. I've implemented the dark theme (which I like) that Anthoney had posted in the contibutions section.

Thanks in advance!

Jim

Use the configuration option

List display = Day, Station Type, Start time UTC, ...

as written in the documentation.

Best,

Hey,

I want to submit an entry to elog remotley using the "elog" command. For example:

elog -h elog-server-adress -l EO -a Fill=111

But this does not generate a new entry. Instead the terminal jumps to an empty new line and the command does not respond to any further inputs anymore (CTRL+C to get out). I have to add a message:

elog -h elog-server-adress -l EO -a Fill=111 "test"

also using an empty string does not work:

elog -h elog-server-adress -l EO -a Fill=111 ""

I could add a whitespace as a work-around, but I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature.

To put this in some context: I want to create entries for certain measurements automatically, where all relevant parameters are already attribute fields. In the usual case the actual message will be empty but might be used if the operator wants to add a note after the meausrement has been done.
