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??? |
uhm... I saw that this parameter makes the file to be included in the "entry" view...
Is there a global or "List Menu text" option? ... my goal is to add a JS calendar just at the left of the current "Show Last" button ... more generally I would like to be able to add custom icons, bottons or links to the menu..
uh oh ... just maked some tests before posting ... "Find Menu text" does my job !!!?!?!!!! why "Find" in the name? it is displayed in the list view, not Find ... Am I completely out?
BTW:
there is a typo ("lanugae") at http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html  |

Well, the normal list view was not there from the beginning. Originally you always saw the last entry, and had to click on "Find", do a search and then see the listing. Only later this became the default view. So "Find Menu text" was there from the beginning, and some people used it. If I change it now to "List Menu text", guess how many people would complain that their config file doen not work anymore.
Well, maybe I should allow both options "Find menu text" and "List menu text", change it in the documentation, and in a year from now remove the "Find menu text". |

[BUG] attach=1 and inline imgs, posted by Emiliano Gabrielli on Mon Jul 4 18:46:25 2005

There is a little difference in the way elog treats attachment's display in list and single message view...
It has to be, but some beaviours can be seen as bugs:
- this is a real bug (see attachment).. if a file is referred inside the text (as shown in elcode docs) it is correctly not shown when in single message view, but it remains visible both inline and as attachment in the full list view
- it would be nice for the user having, as in the single message view, the possibility of show or hide a single or all the attachements of a single message ..

Subst on Reply, posted by Emiliano Gabrielli on Fri Jul 8 10:52:36 2005

the "subst on reply" parameter seems to correctly work only on the first reply..
since the second reply has the author locked to the one having replyed the first time.
Here is my config:
; preset author and email
Preset Author = $short_name
Preset Author Email = $user_email
Subst on reply Author = $short_name
Subst on reply Author Email = $user_email
Subst on reply subject = Re: $subject
; these attributes cannot be changed
Locked Attributes = Author, Author Email
Fixed Attributes Reply = Subject
My poor man solution is for now to allow everyone to change the author (unlock the field ..) |

You need Preset on reply Author = $short_name . Subst is supposed to work after a submission, Preset before you open the edit mask. See this forum. If you reply to this entry, your name appears as the Author even if it's locked. Here is the config:
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset Author Email = $user_email
Preset on reply Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author Email = $user_email
Locked Attributes = Author
The Subst can be used for your image category thing. So instead using
Display Category = $category <img src="icons/$category.png" border="0">
you can use
Subst Category = $category <img src="icons/$category.png" border="0">
which physically rewrites the category. This is probably not what you want, but take it as an example. We use it in one place to replace a user name by a link to our internal telephonbook searching for this username, so if one clicks on the user, one ends up in the user's telephonebook entry. |

[code] should be a sort of <CDATA >, posted by Emiliano Gabrielli on Wed Jul 13 15:09:48 2005

Using the [code] elocode should be intended also to preserve the tagged text from beeing parsed as html or elcode itself ..
this is an example:
Quote: | Note that, for security reasons, you should check the MD5 FINGERPRINT of the SSL certificate issued by the server agaist the following one:
MD5 Fingerprint = 23:A7:AD:33:3C:08:BE:2A:62:6E:85:DF:B8:00:23:40
Thank you |
