Does anyone know whether ELOG has limit number of entries or it can create new entries as many as it can go?  Thanks.

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,

When you submit a "normal" elog entry, you can click on "Choose file" to add an attachment. On a mobile device, you will then be asked to select a photo from your library or take one with your camera. You can do the same on a custom form. You have to extract the code from the normal submissoin form and program it on your custom page. It needs however some work and might not be straight forward.

Is there any way to send email notification of only the message and not the attachment. We get entries consisting of 10 MBs sometimes, and we would like to send only the message and not the attachment in the email notification. I tried restricting postfix to 1MB and using Email Format = 111 but with no success.

You have to use 

Email Format = 47

to remove the attachments. The encoding is decimal, not binary, so you have to do 1+2+4+8+32.

 Dear Stefan,

I tried Email Format =47 . still am having problems.

With Postfix limitation of 1MB elog is giving error message of 'Error sending Email via "<domain name>": 5.3.4 Error: message file too big

Without Postfix limitation, its sending email with the attachment.

Thanks

 I guess you are modifying the wrong elogd.cfg file. Note that you have to send a HUP signal after you changed elgod.cfg for the daemon to re-read the file. Try modifying something else (like adding a new attribute) and see if the daemon sees the change.

  Adding a new attribute is working fine... Has it to do with the elog 2.6.3 version and also I downloaded from ubuntu's synaptic package.. Will the latest release of elog solves this problem???
