Hi Kamen,
I've just tried it for V3.1.0 (6ab0fd5) and the described behaviour is unchanged.
It is even worse if you don't specify the "RSS Title": datetime attributes are just displayed as seconds of the epoch then.
I think this is a feature of ELOG at the moment.
You'll either need to dig into the code yourself or wait for Stefan to fix it.
 
I have an idea for a quick workaround:
you can create new hidden attributes, that contains a copy of the datetime attribute as a string, set by the subst command. You could then use those string attribute in the "RSS Title": that should work.
 
Cheers
Andreas

Hello,

I am using the RSS feed feature of Elog (V2.9.0-2396). I have a couple of attributes of type "datetime" (Start Time and Stop Time). I don't have a "Time Format" statement, so just using the default format. I am passing the Start Time and Stop Time attributes to the RSS Title with $Start Time and $Stop Time, but when looking at the RSS title in IE11 browser, I only see the date and not the time. Is there any way I can see the time as well?

Additional info:

I'm also passing the creation time of the Elog with $entry time and this is displaying correctly (both date and time).

Please let me know if I am doing something incorrectly?

Thanks

I fixed the problem in the current GIT version.

Hi All,

Just a quick message in the hope of helping other find an answer to the question: How to reach the RSS Feed???
I spend hours trying to find out what the correct URL is to reach the feed. The documentation on this is non-existent - at least we could't find this anywhere in the docs.


Answer: Just add elog.rdf at the end of the URL of the logbook!!
eg. http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/elog.rdf

Actually the browser should show an RSS icon to help you subscribing to it. In Firefox 3 that was at least the case. Now they removed it. See here for a fix:

For other browsers it might be similar.

Best regards,

I've just tested with Firefox, Chromium and IE, but no such icon appears. And for me this icon doesn't really help at all, as I'm using the feed to parse the logs

Besides, there is no mention of this Addon in the documentation, so the problem is still there: there is no easy way to find the feed URL.

Looks like the icon has disappeared in current versions of the browsers. I added a paragraph to the description:

I just checked with Chromium and can see the icon:

Thanks for reporting this bug. I fixed it in SVN revisoin 2193.

> Is it possible to preset an attribute with the current weeknumber?

No. All you can do is 

Date format = %W

which displays the week number in the "Entry date" field. This number goes 
from 00 to 53. Some systems support "%V", which runs from 01 to 53.
