Was wondering if there were any tweaks/suggestions for improving the 
logbooks responsiviness.  Our logbook was started 31 July 01.  Since that 
time we have went from 1 logbook to 4 logbooks.  Logbook 1 having 2651 
entries, logbook 2 having 300 entries, and the last 2 are new logbooks, so 
only a few entries.

When user launches the logbook website, it takes considerable time to bring 
the site up.  It seems to be directly related to the number of entries in 
the logbook.  If I set up a dummy site with a couple logbooks and only a 
few entries, the logbook is very fast coming up as well as saving entries.

Another thing that seems to slow the site down, is the number of users in 
the elog notification list (those who've subscribed).  When you save a log 
entry, it takes around 30sec or longer for it to actually complete the 
save.  If I remove the list of users from the notification list and just 
have a few, the save is very fast.


Thanks in advance,

Eric

not really a bug
works very fine just remarks : with this example
Group Phone & Adress = Whois, Qui_est_Qui
Group Extranet = Aide, Promos_Clients, Qui_est_Qui, Joke

[whois] is a intranet section for us : [qui_est_qui] is public
I add   'copy to = Qui_est_qui' 
so extranet or public can acces to limited information
just remove the attributes and guest user can see only limited info
see example below

small problem : 
****************
Logbook Tabs = 0  in the guest logbook will close the group header
may be create a parameter to solve ?
GroupGuest Extranet = ....

;--------------------  intranet info----------------
[Whois]

Quick filter = Partner, Date, AsTo

I'm interested using elog for a lab notebook.  Once entries have been
entered they cannot be changed/edited.
Is it possible for elog to be setup to support something like this?  A write
only mode?

When ELOG is configured for Self-Register=3, is it still possible
to use the Author attribute as a Quick Filter? 

When I try it, the Author drop down box doesn't display anything.

Thanks,
Eric

Ive got 2 issues which I cant see to resolve I was wondering if anyone can 
help.

Problem 1 - Since upgrading to version 2.3.0 I seem to have lost the some 
functionality explained below.  When i first log into my logbook (i only 
have a single one) it defaults to the summary view and the first field is 
one called Customer Name as opposed to # as i wanted the list sorted by 
this field, the link for that logbook entry is no longer available on the 
first field (being Customer Name) but only on the # field), however if you 
use Summary threaded view the whole line is a link.

Is there a flag or setting to the make the first field a link?


Problem 2 - no matter what i try in the config file i cannot get elogd to 
use stylesheets ive tried specifying and even editing and removing the 
default.css style sheet i downloaded but it just seems to ignore its there.

Any help or advice ??????

I could not reproduce this problem. Can you send me the exact URL (the 
address with all the parameters from your browser's address bar like 
http://midas.psi.ch/elogdemo/Forum/?npp=57...) and tell me exactly under 
which browser this happens?

Is is possible to postdate the Entry Date for an entry?

The documentation lists the ability to forward date an entry, but I don't 
see any ability to backdate an entry (edit the date to a date in the past).

Given that the entry date is part of the logbook entry file structure, it 
wasn't obvious how to make this change.

thanks

Stefan, 
We are interested in using your ELOG (which we consider to be a wonderful 
application) even more. We would like to make a few adaptations in your 
source code, above all to add some functionality that we are missing.

I was wondering if there is a way we could coordinate the development 
together. For instance, would it be of your interest to receive the code 
adaptations we do and implement it in your future releases? 

To be more specific, for the moment we are really interested in 
implementing the SHELL script execution on the server (I noticed it is in 
your wishlist).

Best regards,

Tomas Rudolf
