I have requested an undeletion of the article. The article was deleted  "PROD", which means that someone tagged it. And if noone removes the tag, it could be deleted.

I could revive the article. So in the future, One should have an eye on it and maybe update the current version of the software.

If there iy an paper on the elog, maybe it could be cited for more creditability.

Just my 2 cents:

There is a hardcoded limit how many entries the Option list can have. Without looking into the source, I assume the limit also exists for MOptions.
If you want more, you have to recompile elog with the changed limit.

We have used the normal Options attribute and a "Execute new"-script to alter the elog config for the Options list: to sort the list (5 last used entries on top, the rest alphabetical) and remove very old entries, which are not needed any more.
Remark: if you change the elog.cfg, you have to tell elog to reload the cfg. e.g. using "killall -HUP elogd".

Alternatively, you can add javascript code via a html file and the attributes "Top text" or "Bottom text" to manipulate the input fields on the client side.

Both ways are a little bit hacky, but they work.
Best wishes,
Sebastian

Where can I get more information about the config and themes file. I
downloaded the latest version (2.0.4) and the config file docs seem out of
date. I would like to get the icons working as well as getting the email to
work. The demo page at the elog home site shows both but I cannot find ant
references to the icons.

Hi,

I am currently trying to configuring elog top groups, which are supposed to separate from each other. However, I would like to have a common logbook that should be visible in each group. Is there a way to share logbooks among Top Groups for example

Top Group Electronics = Elec1, Elec_EEE, Ele2

Top Group Processing  = P_AA1, PPP2, Elec_EEE

Top Group Monitoring = Mon1, Mon2, Mon3, Mon4

Top Group Data = Data1, PPP2, Data2

I would like logbook to be viewed:

• Electronics:
  • Elec1
  • Elec_EEE
  • Ele2
• Processing:
  • P_AA1
  • PPP2
  • Elec_EEE
• Monitoring:
  • Mon1
  • Mon2
  • Mon3
  • Mon4
• Data:
  • Data1
  • PPP2
  • Data2
  • Mon3
  • Mon4

Could you please suggest me if it is possible to set in this way (Color codes t show the common sharing).

Many thanks and regards,

satyajit

Hi,

I tried without success. Logbook is not sharing, it is displaying only under one "Top Group" whereever it appears first.

Hi,

I am trying to implement a Custom input forms by following this  https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Contributions/49. Is there a way to also insert an image or files to it? I want to take a snap from the iPad and want that to go as an attachment or attach a file(s) into the form. Is there a way to do that?

Your suggestions are highly appreciated.

Regards,

sjena
