I added the option "Summary page title = xxx" in a similar way than the "Page 
title". The new version is at

http://midas.psi.ch/cgi-bin/cvsweb/elog/src/elogd.c?rev=1.64

It will be included in the release 2.3.5 of elog.

Forgot password option generates an error message

Password file hashes are different causing migrated password files to fail 
but only for certain users, try password 516135 hashed in 2.3.4 and compare 
to version 2.3.5 they are different.

Summary page title = string doesnt work also it results in the default ELOG 
DB Name

HELP

> Forgot password option generates an error message

Which error? Can you be more specific. I tried it myself with this forum and 
it worked for me.

Yet nickc is in the password file, it generates the same message for any 
other users in there too.

Is there a way to convert all the hashes from one system to another, the 
problem ive got is my password files are quiet large and want upgrades of 
this nature to go seemlessly without people complaining about it.

This error is caused if elogd cannot contact your SMTP server for sending 
email. Can you please check the "SMTP host" entry in the configuration file?

Unfortunately not. The old system had a bug which deleted the last one or two 
characters, if the password length was dividable by three. Since the 
characters were deleted, there is no way to reconstruct the full password. I 
apoligize for the inconveniences, I know that this can cause lot of trouble, 
but therefore I implemented the "Forgot password?" functionality, so that 
users can log in again. Alternatively, one can edit the password file, delete 
all passwords, and ask the users to log in without password and change it 
afterwards immediately.

Is there a way to hide logbooks from all views.

Basically i want to use the move function to move old entries to another 
logbook but only want administrators to be able to see the logbooks in the 
view, everyone will just see the primary ones.

At the min im having to put Archive logbook, everyone is complaining at me 
that there is too many to choose from :)

Any suggestions ?

What about grouping the archive logbooks into a logbook group? Like:

Group Pubilc = Logook1, Logbook2, ...
Group Archive = Archive1, Archive2, ...

So if a "normal" user is in the public group, it only sees Logoook1, ... and 
a single tab "archive", which is then (I hope) not too much to choose from.

I tried that but on the summary screen it displays a list of all the logbook 
regardless of group, also im not using public groups im using a seperate 
password file.
