Problem with auto-increment attribute

Re: Incorrect Display

Never mind. I figured it out. I used two fields (date and time) that are automatically placed in elog. It messed up the spacing, altough what was puzzling was that it displayed correctly on the entry itself, but not the list. Anyway, I renamed the date and time to another name and it is ok.

Thanks, anyway. Keep up the good work.

I hope this is the correct place for an apparent bug report. The display is incorrect except when displaying a particular entry. I just downloaded 2.6.0-beta thinking I was getting 2.5.9. Nice surprise. The elcode (bbcode? ) is a great idea, but the display, when showing the main screen of a logbook does not have the correct fields showing in the correct places. I will attach two screen captures for illustraton. Never mind, I guess not. It is not letting me upload the screen captures. On the main screen, for example, my field contents for "Route" appear in the "Text" field. But when on the specific entry screen, these field contents are in the correct field. I will be glad to eamil the screen captures, if anyone wants.

I am running Firefox 1.0.3 (same results with IE 6, BTW), on a WinXP OS (sorry fellows, but I am still in process of learning Linux, so I have not tried this version of elog on it, yet), on a Gateway 2.2 GHZ, 1 GB RAM PC.

BTW, I love elog and have it running at work. It is being used extensively.

I guess it did upload. Here is the other screen capture.

BTW, I received the following message upon submitting my last post:

I have a very strange problem with auto-increment attribute. Here is a part of my configuration:

Attributes = Access ID, Harvest Date, Access, Species, PI, Submission date, Stain, Comments
Preset Access ID = MI-05-%03d
Type Harvest date = date
Type Submission date = date

I tried to add new entry, and it's Access ID is MI-05-001. But when I'm adding another entries,
there Access ID is MI-05-006
I found only one mention of using increment in documentation.
What I'm doing wrong?

We just did the 2.60 beta upgrade, and now our pre-existing logbooks, with a
List Display = Name, Author, Date for example will only show the first two fields.

It seems like Elog is dropping the last attribute in the List Display line.

We can 'fix' it by making it say:
List Display = Name, Author, Date, Date
so that it drops the second Date, but that is a bad workaround.

Anyone else seeing this?

Elog 2.60 beta on Linux, Firefox 1.04 as the client. Or IE fully patched on WinXP SP2.

PS: Love Elog at work here too! Truly has made our documentation way better. And RSS feeds of the logbooks is just wonderful.

I just reported it to Stefan last week ... it's the "pippo-bug" Smile

I called it this way becouse you can put anything you want as garbage Attribute to go around the bug .. I temporary corrected my elogs configs addig a ", pippo" to every "List Display" line ...

Hello,

Is there a way to include some attribute fields in the e-mail from eLog, but not all?

E.g, if you have the following:
Attributes = TA, Endret, UA, Pri, Status, Oppdragsgiver, EpostTil, EpostIKT, Tittel

Then you get the heading:
Logbook             : 
TA                  : 
Endret              : 
UA                  : 
Pri                 : 
Status              : 
Oppdragsgiver       : 
EpostTil            : 
EpostIKT            : 
Tittel              : 

(removed the attribute data),

But I would like to send out only:
UA                  : 
Pri                 : 
Status              : 
Oppdragsgiver       : 
EpostTil            : 
Tittel              : 

Any way to do this in the current version?

And perhaps change the order too... I'm asking for much perhaps?

Best regards
Michael

I tried to insert a row in the menu but it seems to totally ignore the command ...
both inserting a filename and simply typeing "Menu text = <b>PIPPO</b>" brings to a page with *no* "PIPPO" in the HTML source ...

is this a bug or another my misconfiguration???

Find seems to ignore Start Date

It seems that making a search in which one selects *only* a start date *and* a "last" number of days
does not works correctly ..
Elog infact simply ignores the start date, showing the last N-days entries ..
This is a bug IMHO, and prevents me to include a quick filter for user, making easy to select a particular year/week in a JS calendar and than using this date as the start date for the logbook ...

here is an example: http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/?mode=threaded&reverse=1&npp=8&ma=6&da=14&ya=2004&last=7

If one specify *also* an "end date" the beaviour is correct..
