I realise that's possible, but things are getting converted into smileys that aren't intended to be smileys. Specifically, when I enter a question in brackets, the end bracket is converted into a smiley. (Like this?) should be (Like this\?). That is very annoying, and to be honest, I don't need the smileys. An option to switch them off would be the best thing. |

I agree that the ?) smiley is annoying, so I changed it to ?-) which should prevent it from showing up in questions in brackets. I updated this server (you can see the effect above), the modification is committed to subversion. |
Thanks a lot! I'm going to pester you though - it would be really good if there was an option to turn them off completely. Surely it can't be a huge amount of work... ? |

Unfortunately it is not simple under Windows to extend the right-click functionality. What I do is to use a snapshot program (like HoverSnap). Triggered with a definable hot key, it grabs a region of the screen and puts it into a GIF file. Then you can attach it to an elog. I agree it takes a couple of clicks, but it's still a quick thing. |
I think you misunderstand me. I was asking whether it would be possible for the elog command-line client program to have an "append to existing entry" option. That program's actually just what I need though - thanks!

Yes, but if you use -e "text" it replaces the whole entry with "text". So an append option would be really useful... |

Hi,
It would be good if when you uploaded an image as an attachment, there was a button next to it that pasted the code [img]elog:1972/1[/img] into the log entry. This way, it would be more easy to have inline images in a log entry.
cheers

| Ben Shepherd | bjs54'at'dl'dot'ac'dot'uk | Question | Linux | 2.6.2-1739 | Private logbook - no guest access? | Hi,
I want to set up a logbook which you have to be logged in to be able to read entries. I've already got three logbooks which can be viewed by anyone but only logged-in users can modify them. For the fourth one, I want to have a private logbook which can't be read by 'guest' users. Is this possible?
cheers

Per default, logbooks can only be read by logged in users if you use "password file = xxx". It is however possible to make these logbooks readable by 'guest' users if you use "Guest menu commands = xxx" and "Guest list menu commands = xxx". So just remove these two options from your fourth logbook and you get what you want. |
Thanks! I actually saw that in the config documentation, but I had assumed that it didn't work. Turns out I'd left those two options in my [global] section as well. Oops! |
