Thanks for your rapid response Stefan!  This is affecting two accounts, "admin" and "prescon". I can delete/create a new prescon but the admin accout concerns me that deleting it may lock me out of admin functions.  What I originally wanted to do was send an email when a new entry or updates were saved. I put five email addresses in the email field rather than in the Configuration file.  I've attached a screen shot, with notes, (you may have to scroll down to see it all) of what I am seeing.

Can you tell me how to stop elogd? I've edited that file several times however when I open ELOG in my browser the elogd is back like it was before the edits.

Thanks again for your help Stefan!     - Terry

I have a logbook with data in it that I need  to  rename  and preserve the the existing data (old book) in the newly named book (i.e. can I move all of the data from one book to a new book and than delete the data from the original book)?

As always thank you for your time.

We have about 10 logbooks running on the same Elog that all get fair use. Many people have turned off new entry emails because they were filling up inboxes, but are still interested in what's new. I saw the option to add "?last=1" to the start page, although I'm afraid using it might cause confusion over how to get to the older posts.

I was trying to figure out a way of creating a "digest" of sorts, a list of entry subjects posted in the past day or week, something similar to what's generated by "?last=1?mode=threaded", but for every logbook (similar layout to the selection page with nested logbooks). This could either be a page, or a regular email.

Is there way to generate such a cross-logbook page? What about a scheduled email formatted based on a given filter?

PS: The elog has been invaluable to us, a big thanks to all involved!

After registering, elog displays a page with the message:

     Error: Command "Config" is not allowed for user ""

However, the registration is successful. This causes confusion, and results in users registering multiple times.

In the elogd.conf file, I have the directive:

     Allow Config = bergman

Any suggestions?

A query to a logbook can crash the demon.

Hi,

I'm currently trying to setup a logbook which will contain process descriptions. One of the attributes will be the resists that are used. This could be more than one resist, hence I try to use MOptions but users should also be able to add materials to the selection list. When I write the following, I get some problems though:

Required Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
MOptions Resists =  Nano Copolymer EL-10, S1813
Extendable options = Resists

If a user wants to add a resist, he gets a textbox to add the new resist (which will contain what was already toggled), but there is now way to select also other resists that are already available, without saving the post and than edit it again. Previously selected resists are deselected when a new resist is added (if the user had emptied the textbox) and one can not save the newly added attribute option without saving the whole entry.

Is there a nice way to implement this (am I overlooking an obvious solution), or is this not possible at all. I guess an ideal solution would be to get some sort of ok button when one adds an attribute option and after confirming the new value that one gets back to the checkboxes without exiting the edit mode.

Regards,

Michaël

PS: This is the complete config for this logbook:

Theme = default
Page Title = $logbook - $Name
Edit Page Title = $logbook
Comment = Photolithography Processes

Quick filter = Name, Resists
Preset Author = $long_name
Reverse sort = 1

Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
Sort Attributes = Resists, Name, Author
Required Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
MOptions Resists =  Nano Copolymer EL-10, S1813
Extendable options = Resists
Sort Attribute Options Resists = 1

List display = Name, Author, Resists

Is there a way to setup a search, to search several log books but not all the logs books at one time?

Thanks

Carl

Is it possible to have many roots with one elogd (or run several elogds), such that you can seaparate different groups or themes from each other:

electronics

       trigger

       power

mechanics

       detector

       support

Thanks.
