I'm (ab)using elog as a database and would like to use conditional attributes, like:

Attributes = PC Name, Operating System, Version, Distribution
Options Operating System = Linux{1}, Windows{2}
{1} Show Attributes Edit = Operating System, Distribution, PC Name
{2} Show Attributes Edit = Operating System, PC Name, Version

Problem is that there are several conditions and the list of attributes is rather long. Also, since it's a
rather dynamic environment I have to make new attributes all the time, and adding them to all "show attributes"
 lists is not only tedious, but bound to cause errors as well.
 

So... 

I was thinking, would it be an idea to make the list of attributes to be shown or hidden on a per attribute base.

 

Like:

Attributes = PC Name, Operating System, Version, Distribution

# hide specific attributes
Hide attributes = Distribution, PC Name

# or configure which fields should be shown allways
Show Attributes = Operating System, Version

# add attributes based on OS
Options Operating System = Linux{1}, Windows{2}
{1} Show Attribute Edit = Distribution
{2} Show Attribute Edit = PC Name

(just thinking out loud here).

You could write a shell script, run it through cron and send mail from that. (even in windows I assume)

The easiest is to put a horizontal line into the entry ...

...like this one. This can even be done via "Preset text =" so it comes by default on a new entry.

When you use the ImageMagick package, attached images are scaled to a predefined size using the option "Thumbnail size = ...". See the documentation for that option for details. 

 Hello,

I'm curious, is it possible to specify (perhaps by default) the rendered size of an attached image. For example, I'd like all images uploaded to be scaled to 100% of the browser window size so a large image is not most off the screen. What I want is to specify the width="100" attribute of the <img /> tag, but it's not clear 1) how do to this for an attachment and 2) if it might be possible to do this in the config file for all img attachments.

Thanks,

Val

Hi,

I try to configure the elog as servers log book.  I need to devide the text entry area by 2 section: 1 for issue so I can put in detail what is the issue of my servers.  the other section below the 1st one for solution.  is it posible to do so?

Hi

Tested this using the 2.6.1 version which comes packed with ubuntu-dapper and a 2.7.5 version I've compiled from source.

If I compile the 2.7.5 version from source and start it using

sudo /usr/local/sbin/elogd -c /usr/local/elog/elogd.cfg

config snippets below

---------------------------------

/usr/local/elog/elogd.cfg:

[global]
port = 8080
;url = http://solsikker.dmi.dk/elog/

[demo]
Theme = default
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Options Category = General, Hardware, Software, Network, Other
Extendable Options = Category
Required Attributes = Author, Type
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type
------------------------------------

The icons show up !!

If I go through an apache proxy (config snippets below)

----------------------------------------

/usr/local/elog/elogd.cfg:

[global]
port = 8080
url = http://solsikker.dmi.dk/elog/

[demo]
Theme = default
Comment = General linux tips & tricks
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject
Options Type = Routine, Software Installation, Problem Fixed, Configuration, Other
Options Category = General, Hardware, Software, Network, Other
Extendable Options = Category
Required Attributes = Author, Type
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Type

From apache conf

ProxyPass /elog/ http://solsikker.dmi.dk:8080/
ProxyPassReverse /elog/ http://solsikker.dmi.dk:8080/
<Proxy *>
        Order deny,allow
        allow from all
</Proxy>
-------------------------------------

The icons are missing !!!

The icons a showing up when using apache and the 2.6.1 elog version.

Best Regards
