I know this thread is realy old. Anyways I would like to give a +1 on this request. As a workaround I currently wrote a small PHP Image Hosting/Upload Script and embedded a link to it in the Menue.
On that page the user uploads the image and gets a link which he/she can embedd using the button... Easy, but a bit to complicated for some users ;)

Right now it is not possible to easily include pictures into the message body, but I put it on the wishlist. Of course you can always refer to external pictures if you submit your text as HTML and put the proper tags there like this one:

and you can even scale them like 
but of course this requires to have that image stored somewhere else. I will probably add a feature like
att:name.gif
which will reference a picture from the attachment, and will be converted to the full picture name after submitting that message.

| Antonio Bulgheroni | antonio.bulgheroni@gmail.com | Request | Windows | 3.1.1 | Re: inserting pictures into a post | I have just made a fresh installation of ELOG 3.1.1 on a windows machine and unfortunately it is not working. If I try to insert a picture with the image button, the dialog complains that the image url is missing. If I drag-and-drop the picture on the edit area, it gets attached but not added as picture.
I tried already on two different computer and on the basic elog configuration.
Can you crosscheck it on your side on a win pc?
Thanks 
antonio

| Chris Smyth | chris.smyth@comcast.net | Request | Windows | Latest | Re: Sample of actual elog Config with URL in SSL | how do I compile elogd with USE_SSL=1?
Andreas Luedeke wrote: |
You normally don't need to specify "URL = xxx" at all. It is only needed if you work with a Proxy that changes the normal ELOG URL. And yes, you'll need "Port = 433" and "SSL =1".
And elogd must be compiled with USE_SSL=1, maybe that's your problem?
In addition you should buy a valid SSL certificate. Otherwise every user needs to acknowledge an exception for your invalid SSL certificate.

HI Guys,
Can you please give me an idea how will I write in the config. I want my elog will be accessed via internet. Though there's a tutorial / guideline, I need an actual config file for me to easily grasp how the URL = xxx should be write. Do my port should be Port = 433 and SSL=1?
Thanks,
Raymund

| Andreas Luedeke | andreas.luedeke@psi.ch | Request | Windows | Latest | Re: Sample of actual elog Config with URL in SSL | Very easy: uncomment the line USE_SSL=1 in the Makefile and then compile.
You'll need of course a gcc compiler on your Windows system, a makefile environment, SSL libraries, etc.. If you don't have that: ask you local administrator.

| Chris Smyth | chris.smyth@comcast.net | Request | Windows | Latest | Re: Sample of actual elog Config with URL in SSL | By the Makefile i belive you are refering to the elogd.cfg? if not what file do I have use?
I have added
port = 443
ssl = 1
Without sucess.
I then tried
port = 443
use_ssl = 1
still no sucess.
I cant find any file that has "#USE_SSL =1" that I can uncomment. I am using an older version of ELOG (ELOG278-2) reading all the documentation I cant seem to figure it out.
I also configured elogd to listen on port 443
Opened a CMD window and entered >elogd -p 443
Says listening on port 443 but still not working.
On the most curent version of ELOG 3.1.0 I just modify the elogd.cfg added ssl = 1 and change the port to 443 and everthing works as advertised. I do the same on this version and I cant get it working. I could really use some help. Thanks for the fast response.

| Andreas Luedeke | andreas.luedeke@psi.ch | Request | Windows | Latest | Re: Sample of actual elog Config with URL in SSL | You need to download the source file package of ELOG and compile it. If you don't know what a Makefile is, then it is likely futile for you to attempt to compile ELOG.
Or in other words: you cannot use SSL.

| Andreas Luedeke | andreas.luedeke@psi.ch | Request | Windows | Latest | Re: Sample of actual elog Config with URL in SSL | You've already named your solution: drop the very old ELOG version and download the new one. Obviously it was compiled with USE_SSL and you can use it right away.
Since you probably don't even have the source files of the old version, you'll have no chance to make it work with that. Just use ELOG 3.1.0.
