icon5.gif   number of attachments limit, posted by Devin Bougie on Thu Dec 20 17:08:51 2012 
Hello,
Is there still a limit of 50 attachments per topic?  If so, is there or could there be a parameter to change this setting?
Thanks,
icon5.gif   drag and drop attachments not working with web server authentication, posted by Devin Bougie on Tue Jan 12 17:38:52 2016 
Hello,

The "Drop attachments here..." section does not work when using Webserver authentication.  Both elog 3.1.1 (the binary RPM) and apache are running
on EL6.6 and are configured according to the docs.  Authentication works fine and the normal "Choose File - Upload" attachment table works fine.  However,
when dragging an attachment to the "Drop attachments here..." section the dashes on the border turn green but when dropping the attachment nothing happens.

Thanks, Stefan.  I read that before asking my question, but didn't see a resolution in that thread.  I am already at 3.1.1, and I am testing
on a clean installation.  Are you saying that the solution is in the development branch after the release of 3.1.1?

Yeah, I had tried that and it did work in your demo forum.  It just didn't work in mine with authentication = webserver, even with a clean
browser profile.

I'm finally able to reproduce this, and my initial description was incorrect.  If we have "restrict edit = 1", only an "Admin
user" can use the "Dop attachments here..." or the "Image" button in the CKEditor.  The old "Choose File,"
"Upload" buttons, however, works just fine for anyone.
icon5.gif   entry does not appear in list while it is being edited, posted by Devin Bougie on Wed Jan 20 20:38:17 2016 
When an entry is being edited, it does not appear in the list once it's been autosaved or the editor manually clicks on "Save."  This
has been reproduced in the "Linux Demo" forum on this site, as well as on a clean installation of the 3.1.1 binary on EL6.

It would be great if there was a configuraiton option to control this, but I haven't found it yet.  To reproduce:

Thanks, Andreas.  I was aware of the "pending draft" menu, and I am aware that you can manually browse to an entry even if it doesn't
appear in the list.  However, for our operations group it is a requirement that any saved entry appears in the list, even if it's in the process
of being edited.  We won't be able to upgrade until this is possible.

Thanks, Stefan!  Yes, the old behavior is an acceptable workaround.  Although you need to use "Save drafts = 0" for this instead
of "autosave = 0".

Ideally, our machine studies group would like to have the ability to save / autosave an entry *and* have it remain in the list.  We'd
