yes, that is exactly where I got this V3.1.2-bd75964 version!

Do you recommend to download it again from your site and compile?

Version V3.1.2-bd75964

I suppose it already contains List drafts feature.

Dear Stefan,

Thanks for quick reply.
I checked List drafts = 1 in config file - it does not show drafts in the list in my case.
Can it be blocked by any other option?
I have these options enabled:

Use Lock = 1
Save drafts = 1
List drafts = 1

The message is not lost, but becomes a "draft". This works similar in most email systems. When you edit an email and son't send it, it stays in your "draft" email folder and does not show up in your "sent" folder. Same here. You are suppost to "submit" you entry, the "save" is just a temporary safety backup. If you do not submit (if you press BACK or your browser crashes), the entry is not submitted to the system, but stays around as a draft. If you create a new message, the system asks you to edit and finish your draft, so that it does not get lost. So always hit "submit" if you are finished editing a message, not just "save". 

If you want to see the draft message, they are rendered in red in the normal message list if you have

List drafts = 1

in your config file. No ide where your cluttering comes from.

I found a sequence which hides the message from the list.
In addition this sequence corrupts UTF encoding of the text.

  1. create new message
  2. submit it
  3. Edit this message again
  4. click SAVE and then exit the editor (click Logbook name in the header or BACK in the browser)
  5. message disappeared from the list!
  6. by clicking NEW message I found my lost one in the drafts, but all text was corrupted.

I've made small GIF presentation on this issue (attached, open in new window), may be this helps.

Tell me your current seven digit number and I can check if your version is too old.

Hi Stefan,
I think there is a misunderstanding: there is an ELOG commit with the GIT ID bd75964.
It is from Sep. 2016, so: Peter, you should download a newer version.
Cheers

Hi,
  sorry to bother again on this issue, but it is causing me some trouble, as many of my users are using the "SetNone" button in their config page, and doing so they deactivate their account, which I have to re-activate manually.

The warning about "Are you sure you want to deactivate your own account ..." is actually triggered only when someone toggle the "active" radio button, but not when the "SetNone" function is used. In that case no warning is present, and the user just deactivate his/her account. I'm sure that this is not the intended behavior.

I attach a modified version of elogd.c (based on git c1866af75bb2fe62aa868c4cf562f43a08e4b499 ) with the modified javascript I proposed earlier in this thread.

best,
  Stefano

icon5.gif   how to insert images inline, posted by Piotr Zolnierczuk on Tue Mar 6 16:59:29 2018 

Hi,

I recently upgraded elog from 2.7 to 3.1 and have a hard time to insert images inline. The attachements work just fine. I am certain it is something silly, but I cannot figure it out.

  1. In edit mode, I click the image icon
  2. A pop-up "Image Propertied" shows with two tabs "Image Info" and "Upload" (selected)
  3. Click on Browse button and select an image
  4. Now
    • if I click OK, I get an error "Image source URL is missing".
    • if I go to "Image Info" tab - what URL am I supposed to enter, 68757/<1> ?

I found an old thread elog:68410 (from 2016) but could not find a solution that would work for me. Where does "Preview attachments" option should be inserted? In the global section?

Hopefully there's a simple explanation for this

Piotr

Before you click OK on your point 4, click on "Send to Server".
