Hi,

I've just upgraded from 2.6.2 to 2.7.3.

In my config file, I have

Quick filter: Date, ID.

When starting 2.7.3, across the top I now get 

"Error: Attribute "ID" for quick filter not found"
followed by an entry box.

If an ID is typed into that box, it sort of finds the right entry (+/- a few on occasion).

I cannot see any documented change that would affect how the Quick filter works.  Any clues?  Thanks.

Wie bitte ist der dorhin gekommen? Normalerweise wird elogd.cfg unter /usr/local/elog gespeichert. Wenn man natuerlich diese Datei von Hand irgendwo andershin kopiert, muss man sie auch dort veraendern, sonst schiesst man sich selbst in's Bein.

Actually it is nowhere written the 'ID' for a quick filter should work. After investigating, I realize that it
worked previously "by accident". I added in meantime some test so there is a warning for quick filter attributes
which do not exist, and that's what you got. I loosened this test for 'ID' now in the current SVN version, so it
can be used. It does however not display the single entry you want, but a page containing that entry (which then
is displayed in bold). If you want exactly one entry, just add it's ID to the URL, like

https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/65767

for your previous entry.

Thanks Stefan!

Can I control the content of the Subject on an email notification?

i.e. Can I copy the subject from the elog entry into the email subject?

Thanks,

//Bill

I found the answer in the docs.

In the config file add

Use Email Subject = Added Text: $subject

This results in the e-mail subject being set to "Added Text: elogentry subject line"

Thanks for a great tool!
