I found the most limiting factor of ELOG to be the file access. ELOG stores all entries in files and therefore has a lot of disk access.

We found that an AFS directory for ELOG is unusable. We tried to store our logbooks on NFS, and it was barely usable but slow. Now we use a local
disk on the server, that works fine.
icon5.gif   How to format a column in list display?, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Fri Apr 23 20:08:10 2021 pik1.PNGpik-list.PNG
There is the nice conditional formatting feature for List display:

Cell Style <attribute> <value>
= <style>

I would like to use it without conditions: some attributes should always be formatted in a specific way.
 

Specifically I want a generated attribute (combined from other attributes) to be display in monospace font.

Okay, found some solution for my problem:

List Change Pikett = <div class="pikett">$Pikett</div>
CSS=pikett.css

And file themes/default/pikett.css contains:

Hi Andreas,

the bug you have found was already reported in an earlier issue, together with the same solution you have found.

icon5.gif   when using webserver authentication, how can I restrict the users that can edit any given elog?, posted by Christian Ospelkaus on Sat Jun 19 18:38:21 2021 
Dear elog users & developers,

the subject line says it all: when using webserver authentication, how is it possible to restict access of users to any given elog? Only using
the apche rules? Admin user and Login user do not seem to be doing anything for me. I am using elog as packaged by debian for buster, using an apache ssl

Dear all,

I figured it out. Current global config is (using kerberos instead)

icon3.gif   How about string constants in config files?, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Thu Oct 21 11:15:20 2021 
My config files are often large and use some shell scripting. In these shell scripting part I interact with files and execute scripts in specific folder.
It would be nice to have the ability to define for example a file path once and reuse it in different parts of the config file. It would help to
make config files cleaner. For example:
icon3.gif   Shared logbook and elog.cfg file across multiple installations, posted by Anthony on Mon Nov 15 15:41:04 2021 
Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to have a shared logbook and elog.cfg between multiple instances of elog.  Ideally, I'd like
to have my logbooks folder and elog.cfg hosted on a nextcloud instance while running the elog service locally.  I've tried this using symlinks
