Yes, this was fixed in revision 1.550 of elogd.c. You apparently have revision 1.54x
which does not yet contain the patch. You need to donwload the newest version from
CVS and compile it by hand (or wait for the next major release).

Well, the manual does not state that "$message id" should work for "Subst
<attribute>" option (;-)

The reason is that the message ID is available only *after* a new entry has been
written to the database, and the "Subst" command is evaluated *before* an entry
is submitted. "$message id" only works for "Thread display", "RSS Title", "Subst
on reply", "Subst on edit" and "Display". You should use

Display KlientIn/KundIn = $Vorname $Name; P: $Telefon Privat; G: $Telefon
Geschaft; N: $Telefon Mobil; $Landeskennung-$PLZ $Ortschaft [<a
href="http://localhost:8080/$logbook/$message id">$logbook:$message id</a>]

Please note that you wrote "mesage id", correct is however "message id" (two
"s"), so there is also a typo.

The link "Back" has been replaced upon request by "List" which is more
appropriate. So if you changed your menu with "Menu commands = ...", please
replace "Back" by "List" there.

1. thats now clear with the £message id and the work-around is ok for my 
needs

2. the "bacl" link is clear and tranlated to "Liste". But I mean the back 
button 
in the entry and the edit mode (see picture)...  ;-)

Well, if you try with the demo logbook, the "Back" button is translated
correctly, so I don't know whats wong in your case. Can you check that your
eloglang.german file is intact?

installed elog 2.5.5 agin, same effekt with "back" / "zurück". checked the 
language file eloglang.german witch seem ok for me and the translations are 
well done. removed then in eloglang.germen the traslation for back and checked 
this: still back was viewed. reinserted the translation "Zurück" (just this 
word!)and checked again: everithing looks fine, no longer back, correctly 
Zurück on the button.
absolutly no idea why and whats the difference was! bus it works...
thank's stefan!  :-)

This problen drives me crazy. Under some circumstances the List Change <attribute> function does not replace $attribute. It happens at random circumstances when I use the Find function to search all logbooks. In the resulting list, it fails reproducibly for certain entries of certain logbooks. But I cannot find what is special about those lokbooks or entries. In different Find requests it works perfectly fine. 

I have added a screenshot. The yellow button is created by this command in [global] for all logbooks. It makes no difference to define it in all [logbook] sections. I would really appreciate help to debug this.
