is it possible to run a shell script in an "Options" tag, as it is with the "Preset", "Subst", and so on?
I need to have something like this:
Options Update of = $shell(/home/alex/zeplin3/elog/z3elog-mirror/documents/ext_docs.sh MinGen)
the script returns a line with comma separated values...
Thanks

Interesting idea, but substitutions only work for config setting where the documentation explicitly states so. The complete list comes here:
- Preset <attibute>
- Preset on reply <attribute>
- Preset on duplicate <attribute>
- Subst <attribute>
- Subst on reply <attribute>
- Subst on edit <attribute>
- Change <attribute>
- Email <attribute> <value>
- Use email from
- Use Email heading
- Use Email subject
- Bottom text
- Top text
- Edit page title
- Prepend on edit
- Append on edit
- Append on reply
- Quote on reply
- Preset text
- Page title
- RSS title
- List page title
Doing shell execution for all configuration settings would slow down the server too much. |

The logbook list new users can register with is exactly the list the users have access to. So if you omit a logbook there, they can later just go to that logbook, hit config, and add themselves. If you want to prevent a user from getting notifications from a logbook, prevent user access to that logbook, like a new top group.

Not at the moment. It would take days of work which I don't have right now. Much more than what it takes you editing the password file in an editor  |

Hmm, by default all users have access to all logs. What I have setup is an announcement logbook and I would simply like to send to all registered users the email when announcements happen. My thought was to simply not allow people to pick which logbooks to "register" with and default to the Announcements logbook. I went ahead and hacked the password file and simply set all accounts to subscribe to all logbooks

| Ben Shepherd | bjs54'at'dl'dot'ac'dot'uk | Question | Linux | 2.6.2-1739 | Private logbook - no guest access? |
Hi,
I want to set up a logbook which you have to be logged in to be able to read entries. I've already got three logbooks which can be viewed by anyone but only logged-in users can modify them. For the fourth one, I want to have a private logbook which can't be read by 'guest' users. Is this possible?
cheers

Per default, logbooks can only be read by logged in users if you use "password file = xxx". It is however possible to make these logbooks readable by 'guest' users if you use "Guest menu commands = xxx" and "Guest list menu commands = xxx". So just remove these two options from your fourth logbook and you get what you want. |

Thanks! I actually saw that in the config documentation, but I had assumed that it didn't work. Turns out I'd left those two options in my [global] section as well. Oops! |

| Steve Jones | steve.jones@freescale.com | Bug report | All | Other | 2.6.2-1739 | "Guest menu commands" not changing the menu line |
I tried adding the lines below to my Global section, and while Guest access is turned on the menu line does not change. I tried searching SVN change logs for a comment regarding any 'guest' bugs but found nothing. Was this a problem at some point and fixed? I noticed that the Midas site is running 2.6.4-1814 and the guest menus work! Am I doing something wrong or was this a problem in the past?
Thanks!

Ok, well, I built version 2.6.4-1795 and I have the same issue -- Guest menus do not show up when added to my configuration.
Suggestions on where to look? Start from scratch?
