Fully agree. The name comes from historical reasons. I renamed "Display search"
to "List Display". Will come in the next version.

There is a little trick to do that:
Start page = ?rsort=Issue
Since sorting is done only lexically, you need a special date format like
Date format = %Y %m %d
in order to sort correctly. |

Thanks again! That did the trick. One little hassle is that I had to go back and edit
all the Issue fields in my existing records so they would have the correct date format.

You can allow guests to create entries, but only registered users (Admins) to delete (or edit) entries:
Menu commands = List, New, Edit, Reply, Delete, Find, Config, Logout, Help
Guest menu commands = List, New, Reply, Find, Login, Help
See https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#general for details.

elog editor loses all text, posted by Kontantin Olchanski on Wed Aug 4 23:46:34 2010

I just typed a long text into this elog, clicked "submit" and it bombed with "you must select an Icon", returned me to the editor with all my text gone gone gone. I do not want to select icons, I just want to report a problem with elog. Well, 2 problems, now.
K.O.

Well, first RTFM: "Fields marked with a * are required" on top of the elog entry page. Then, use a reasonable browser on a reasonable OS
On Google Chrome the text is still there (actually I just tried it with this entry). No idea what Safari under OSX does. Under Windows, Safari keeps the text. Actually this is controlled by the FCKEditor inside elog which is written by someone else. So complain there! Funny: We have about 1000+ entries in this forum, and you are the first one complaining about this. |

this elog gives errors sending mail through PSI email server. (did not capture the error messages, sorry). K.O. |
edit somebody else's draft, posted by Konstantin Olchanski on Wed May 20 01:54:55 2015

this elog offers me to edit a draft message, then yells at me "only some other user can edit this draft!!!".
methinks I should only be offered to edit draft messages that I own or I can edit. K.O. |
