| Harry Martin | harrymartin772@gmail.com | Question | Linux | 2.9.2-2475 | Re: Duplicate entries | I find that I can reply to a message ("original" message, if you will) without doing anything to the reply message (the "copy" of the original message, if you will). If I then submit it, it gets saved as a new message, identical to the one I replied to.
I read through the options at the end of the docs. I did not see anything about a way to suppress identical messages, or a way to force the user to make some kind of change to make the reply different from the original.

I've seen exact;y this effect, even though I have branching = 0 in my config file - so ordinarily no chance to have two
replies to an entry. My pointer aka mouse (I'm on Linux) is a bit dodgy, and sometimes disconnects/reconnects, so in effect gives a very fast double click. I've always assumed that was the cause of the problem. The two replies have incremental IDs, and both those IDs are listed in the "Reply to" header section of the entry. I'm not sure how this overcomes the branching = 0 detail, though.
That is what I have assumed, but if others see this on occasion, perhaps it's got a different cause.

Periodically (rarely) on manually adding a record into Elog it generates a duplicate record with its own incremented ID and I don't know why. I just delete the duplicate in the meantime but would like to know if anyone else has seen this and whether their is a answer/fix for it. Thanks.

For security reasons (XSS or cross site scripting) , HTML code in attributes is not allowed by default. To turn it on (and if you know what you are doing), add following line to your configuration
Allow HTML = 1 |
I know this is an old, old thread, but I am trying to use this feature in a recent version of elog (3.1.3). Is there any chance this will ever get fixed, or at least made workable? I tried "Allow HTML = 1", but that did not work. I'd like to be able to use this to link directly to carriers to track packages.
Also, the documentation seemed a bit confusing to me:
| Quote: | Change <attribute> = <string>
Instead of subsituting an attribute, the original attribute can be kept and just the output formatting can be changed. This can be very handy for constructing HTML links out of attributes. Presume that a company has a telephone book reachable under
http://any.company.com/telbook.cgi?search=<name>
where <name> has to be replaced by a search string. Now one can construct an automatic telephonebook lookup with following options:
Attributes = Name, Telephone, ...
Display Telephone = <a href="http://any.company.com/telbook.cgi?search=$Name">$Name's telephone number</a>
The attribute Telephone is now automatically constructed from the attribute Name and consists of a link to the company's telephonebook. The advantage of this system is if the URL of the telephonebook changes one day, only one statement in the config file has to be changed, while otherways (like with the Subst Telephone = ... option) all entries would have to be changed manually. |
The example seems to be using a different syntax ("Display Telephone") rather than the syntax described by the section header ("Change <attribute>...").
Any update to this information would be greatly appreciated. I'm just looking for a workable solution of any kind. Thank you for your continuing fine work. |
I am able to make it work by passing just a plain string constructing the URL. Strange though... before I posted the previous log entry, it didn't work no matter what I tried! Bizarre.
However, it would still be a good idea to update the documentation to clarify things somewhat and bring it up to date with actual usage today. |
You are referring here to a Forum entry for an old ELOG version: this will not be changed, since it was for that old version.
If you want some documentation to be updated, then you should show the documentation part that should be updated. |
I have been looking at the documentation at https://elog.psi.ch/elog/config.html#attrib. (See the quoted portion, above.) If there is newer documentation, please post a link for it here. Thank you! |

 | Florian Feldbauer | florian@ep1.ruhr-uni-bochum.de | Question | Linux | 3.1.3 | Placeholders in Python API | Hey all,
In the configuration of the Elog one can use
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset Author Email = $user_email
to have predefined values for the Author and Author Email fields when creating a new entry via the web interface.
Is it also possible to use these placeholders when creating a new entry via the Python API?
Cheers,
Florian |

 | David Dunne | ddunne@seven.com.au | Question | Linux | 3.1.4 | Style <attribute> and Cell Style <attribute> on the same row | Query
(FYI, OS = FreeBSD, Elog Version as showing on logon box = V3.1.4-)
Is it possible to use both Style <attribute> and Cell Style <attribute> on the same row?
For example, have a Logbook containing several Attributes and display a subset of those attributes in Summary Mode. Two attributes are of interest for this query which are part of the attributes displayed in Summary Mode, attributes ‘Assign Line’ and ‘Service’
If the ‘Attribute Assign Line = Assign 1’ then shade all cells in that row #808080
but if the ‘Attribute Service = 1600’ always shade that cell #7A5776
Config file includes
Style Assign Line Assign 1 = background-color:#808080
Cell Style Service 1600 = background-color:#7A5776
The result is the row gets shaded #808080 if ‘Assign Line = Assign Line 1’ but fails to shade the Service cell colour #7A5776 if it equals 1600
Extract from HTML source for the ‘1600’ cell when both conditions are correct shows both background-color values are present and the cell is styled the first value listed (which is Style Assign Line Assign 1 = background-color:#808080 but I always want #7A5776 for cell Service when it is of value 1600)
.
<td class="list2" style="background-color:#808080" style="background-color:#7A5776"><a href="../Daily/1">1600</a></td>
Thank you,
David |
