Re: Can't subscribe email to logbooks in different top groups, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Apr 12 15:43:42 2019

Top groups should use separate password files, otherwise things can mess up.

We're running elogd behind an apache proxy server, with Authentication = Webserver. We have top groups configured, but a single shared password file.
If a user is looking at a particular logbook and goes to the Config link, they are presented with a list of checkboxes for email subscription to logbooks in that top group. Clicking "Save" will remove all email subscriptions from all other top groups.
Is there a workaround to this issue?
EDIT: Manually adding an entry for different logbooks in the password file gets clobbered the next time the user logs in.

I have two problems:
1) With the configuration below, I can't set the Author attribute to be the author of the reply. As written, it gives the Author field as blank. If the Remove on Reply line is removed, it is set to the parent's author. What am I doing wrong?

Subst on reply Author = $long_name |

Hey, elog made it to MiniBooNE! I'm working on MEG...
What you need is the following:Preset on reply subject = Re: $subject
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on Reply Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author
The Subst statements work after the entry gets submitted, while the preset statements work before. So Preset on Reply <attribute> is what you need.

The substitution $logbook originally produces a valid URL to the logbook, and thus replaces blanks by "+". I changed that so that $logbook produces the original name containing blanks, and $elogbook is the encoded one with the "+"'s. The change is in revision 1.723 |

No, that's not true. A
Locked attributes = Author
will do the job as well. |

I can't argue how it works ...
The following code will assure that, if the HTML generated by elog would be modified by hand by a malicious user the server can still preset the author field with the right $long_name?
Locked attributes = Author
Preset on Reply Author = $long_name
how works in details the "Locked Attribute" parameter then ?? ... |

Ok, you're right. But that requires quite some knowledge to change the generated HTML by hand. So for paranoiac people the "Subst" might be better. Actually you could have both the "Preset on Reply" and the "Subst on Reply", so on the reply entry form one sees already the correct author. |
