Hello,

I am trying to set up my elog to have read-only guest access and require registration/password for users to be able to post to the elog. I've
tried following the instructions here: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/faq.html#6, i.e. putting the following

There are two menus, one for the list display, and one for the individual entry display. To change the first, you need

List menu commands = ...
Guest list menu commands = ...

The debian version of elog is pretty old with quite a number of bugs fixed in meantime. Unfortunatlely the debig packase has not bee updated by the maintainers.
So better download the current version from bitbucket and compile elogd yourself.

What is the string length limit in url tag and how to increase it?

For example,

[url=http://example.com?<text_string>]click here[/url]

Several strings in ELOG are limited to 256 chars. It is likely the limit for URLs, too.

The magic number "256" appears 285
times in the elogd.c file.

It is probaly easier if you compress long URLs with goo.gl

Cheers, Andreas

When an attachment is later added to an exisiting entry, we see that the string "Uploaded <date>" has the wrong
time: in our case it is one hour into the future.
I'm testing it now here in the forum.
