Trial and error - it seems like this combination does the trick:
Locked Attributes = Author
Fixed Attributes Edit = Author
Allows you to edit eg. status of multiple entries even if one attribute is locked

Hello Andres
Or maybe my reply was unclear :-), but i did use the "Show Attributes Edit" the way you meant to not show attribute BRUGER and when i do that i get:
Error: Attribute Bruger not supplied.
Please go back and enter the Bruger field

I'm sorry, apparently my tip was not clear: you should use "Show Attributes Edit = " to NOT SHOW any of your locked attributes.
It is just a guess: if the attribute is not shown in your edit form, it will not complain about it when you submit the form.
Did you try that?
Cheers, Andreas

Hello Andreas
Show Attributes Edit = xxx, limits the attributes shown when editing but when you submit you get the error
Error: Attribute Bruger not supplied.
Please go back and enter the Bruger field.
If I save instead of submitting it looks like it does change the attribute as intented in my test Elog system. Unfortunately i've disabled save with "Save drafts = 0" in my live system - to only use submit, and enabling drafts only causes other issues. My configuration is attached

Hi Finn,
I don't know if this was intended, but at least I know a possible solution: with the command
"Show Attributes Edit = "
you can limit the attribute list shown in the edit form to those that are not Locked.
I haven't tried, but I guess that should work.
Cheers

Hello Andreas
OK, I did install a version of ELOG with a minimum of settings and the edit of multiple settings works fine. I've tracked the issue to "Locked Attributes = Bruger".
If one or more of the attributes are locked i get the error "Error: Attribute option - keep original values - not existing". I'm not trying to change the locked attribute, but it seems when one is locked multiple editing is not possible.
Is that intended to work this way?
Kind Regards Finn

I use editing of multiple entries frequently and it works fine for me.
To understand your problem I would suggest that you try a minimal configuration. If you have a test logbook with just one or two fields and it still does not work, then post the config here that people can reproduce your problem - and hopefully find a fix.
Cheers, Andreas

Hello Elog Forum
There is i ELOG the function to edit multiple posts eg. to change the staus from "ongoing" to "finished" -> in danish translation "igangværende" and "afsluttet", see the attached pictures.
When I select multiple post and want to edit them to status "afsluttet" i get the "udklip_2.jpg" entry form and change only the status to "afsluttet" (Finished)
The result is a error informing that the attribut "gem oprindelige værdier" does not exist. As a test i changed the text in the translation file from "Keep origianl values = gem oprindelige værdier" to "Keep origianl values = Keep origianl values" but the result is the same error: Attribut Keep original values does not exist.
Is there a solution to this or is or is mutiple editing of post not allowed?
Kind Regards Finn

Good day,
I was wondering (and I searched for :) ) a way to directly edit an entry while in summary view instead of having to first click on the entry then click on Edit...
I mean, in summary view, every row entry is clickable to access the entry itself (except email witch open email client), so instead to open it, can it be edited directly ?
Is it possible ?

No, this is not possible. |

The option "Fixed attributes = ..." will do the job. |

Ok, but is there a possibility to preserve the fields of the old message, but
still be able to edit it. This would be a nice feature in the case of an entry
with lots of attributes (set to something different then the preset values).
After submiting the message you realize : one option was wrong and now you
want to edit it without changing the other options again.
Is this possible?
Thank you and best regards,
Stefan |

Actually this is a good idea. After thinking a while, I wonder if anybody at
all would like not to preserve the preset values. So if nobody complains, I
will set the behaviour such that elog always preserves the entries if one
edits an existing message. |

Hi all,
Is there a way to add more icons to the currently available icons when you are in the edit mode. For example instead of having this  icon if I want to add a different icon that is not in the list.
The reason I ask is that I want for example to have an icon of a bug(for software bugs) or something different.
I looked in the elog's installation directory and I could find all of the available icons but couldn't see any place where I could modify the installation to allow me access to the extra icons.
Thanks in advance.
Behdad.

You need to do two things:
1) Add you new icon to <elog directory>\themes\default\icons
2) Refer to your new icon in the config file like
IOptions Icon = icon1.gif, icon2.gif, new_icon.gif

Thank you for the reply but I think you misunderstood me. I am not after icons for the attributes. I am after icons that I can insert it into my records text like this one....  . So I just like to customize my icons in the "Insert Smiley" list.
Is this possible?
Thank you. |

Ah, ok. Now I understand. This is however deep inside the fckeditor and I have no idea how to change it. Maybe you can get some help from the fckeditor community? All I found is the directory
<elog>/scripts/fckeditor/editor/image/smiley/msn
which contains some smileys. Maybe you can edit those? |
