icon1.gif   Creating ELog Links not working properly in HTML Editor, posted by Edmund Hertle on Mon Sep 7 12:44:42 2015 

Hey,

the syntax for creating links to other elog entries has a small issue in the HTML editor. The link will not be created properly if there are whitespaces in the name of the logbook. Using ELCode (or in a simple attribute field) the whitespaces can be replaced by "+", but this does not work in the HTML editor. The work-around would be to use ELCode mark-up instead of HTML.

Example 1 (this should work): elog:Contributions/47

Example 2 (this will not work): elog:Config+Examples/11

Example 3 (will also not work): elog:Config%20Examples/11

Please advise on how to set up selective email notification on logbooks; We want to send an email to specific people when an event that involves them is entered? 

At the moment, we currently get an email entry for every new logbook entry. Thanks

icon1.gif   restrict edit time and autosave, posted by Kester Habermann on Fri Oct 30 18:20:22 2015 

Hello,

When using restrict edit time together with autosave, there is the following problem: The counter for restrict edit time seems to start after the autosave. If the time is up, it is no longer possible to submit the report.
It is also not possble to edit old drafts if restrict edit has elapsed since the creation of the save.
Autosave is definitively a nice new feature. However, I think it would be better if the counter for restrict edit time only started after the "submit" of the report and allowed edits to drafts no matter how old they are. As it is one needs to either set a really high value for restrict edit time or turn off autosave.
The issue seems to be related to: https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68103

Regards

Kester

 

 

 

icon1.gif   WYSIWYG editor for Elog not working in Debian Jessie, posted by Nicola on Tue Nov 3 18:22:33 2015 

I suspect that this might be a Debian packaging issue; however no one replied to my help request on the Debian forums so I try posting the question also here. I insatlled Elog on my Debian Jessie machine, I can open it with a browser but when entering a new post just a simple plain text editing box is shown instead of the WYSIWYG editor, and no drag and drop area for attachments is shown. When I start the elog service with "systemctl start elog" I get this suspect message in the journal: "FCKedit NOT detected". Indeed, I see that the elog installation creates a symlink which I guess is supposed to point to the fckeditor installation, which nevertheless is missing:

root@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll fckeditor
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Oct 25  2014 fckeditor -> ../../fckeditor
root@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll ../../fckeditor
ls: cannot access ../../fckeditor: No such file or directory

Is this a Deban misconfiguration or a bug in Elog? thanks

icon1.gif   Paste figure from Clipboard, CKEditor 4.5.1 and Firefox 42, posted by Simon Däster on Thu Nov 5 16:59:34 2015 

I tried to paste an Image from Clipboard into the CKEditor 4.5.1. Unfortunatelly, that doesn't work. I used Firefox, version 42. When I  looked in the javascript error console, it reported that "TypeError: b is undefined, ckeditor.js:1139:112". The variable  d.config.filebrowserImageUploadUrl could not be found.

I set the variable in the file ckeditor-config.js in the folder scripts, but that didn't solve the problem. As far as I can tell, Pasting Image from Clipboard does not work in this forum neither, but I don't know whether this is in purpose.

Pasting via the button "Paste from Word" works as it inserts a 64base formated image, but that's not what I'm searching for. Also normal upload of files works fine and puts the file in the correct folder (logbook/year/)

 

 

icon1.gif   Sample of actual elog Config with URL in SSL, posted by Dawang on Mon Dec 14 04:42:04 2015 

HI Guys,

Can you please give me an idea how will I write in the config. I want my elog will be accessed via internet. Though there's a tutorial / guideline, I need an actual config file for me to easily grasp how the URL = xxx should be write. Do my port should be Port = 433 and SSL=1?

Thanks,

 

Raymund
