if you put 

Use Email From = $user_email

we receive in the adress 'my email adress'

how to avoid  the maito: prefix ?
it gives problems when you vwant to reply from outlook

it's ok in elog to send mail from IExplorer

Hi,

We just recently upgraded from an older version of Elog to the latest and
greatest, 2.5.4-2.  Everything is workinly nicely, except the "Use Email
From" option does not seem to work as before.  We have the option set so
that all e-mail that is sent should be from a single address, but instead it
just ignores that address and uses the e-mail address of the user currently
logged in.   

I have this set in the global section of the elogd.cfg:

Use Email From = elog@****.com

Please let me know if this is the intended function or if it may possible be
a bug.

Thanks,
Chris

Hi,
  I have an elog server which uses apache/ldap for authentication.
I would like to have the username used for ldap to be set automatically as author field in the elog.

I'm using: 
Authentication = Webserver
and I do set the env-variable X-Forwarded-User correctly to the ldap username

GET /test/?cmd=New HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080
Authorization: Basic bGFjYXByYXI6TWEwMiSyYnVt
...
Cookie: elmode=Summary; sid=D7DE678B7CAA1D10; ufnm=lacaprar; urem=0
...
X-Forwarded-User: lacaprar

How can I preset author to X-Forwarded-User?
Preset Author = $??
I've tried $short_name/$long_name but I got Anonymous.
I understand that it is so because these are meant to be filled when password authentication is used: any way to use some other variable with the Webserver auth?

thanks in advance,
  Stefano

Right now a Draft shows a red error indication, that the entry is currently a draft. For the CSS styling it uses the HTML class="errormsg". The same class is also used if an entry does not exist.

Would it be possible for the draft version to use a different HTML class (for example class="draftmsg")? It can also use the same visual style (or making it yellow would probably also work)

The reason is that the py_elog Interface uses the class="errormsg" to determine if an entry does not exist ( https://github.com/paulscherrerinstitute/py_elog/blob/master/elog/logbook.py#L394 ) and refuses to return the content for this entry. One could possibly fix that also on the py_elog part, but it would probably at least require parsing of actual text (which might make problems for translated pages). Alternativley one could also look for the edit button, but maybe a small change on the elog server side is the simplest solution to this problem?

Hi Stephan,

one of the eLOG users at our company, has problems using eLOG in combination with Google Chrome (version 2.0.172.43), log in gives no problem, when selecting the appropiate department, he get's the following error:

Do you have any clue?
