Dear All, 

 We have been using the ELOG for several years and had inserted hyper-links instead of whole files in order to save storage space. From this month our server is moved to a new location with a new address. Is there a way for me to retrospectivelly replace all addresses with the new server file pass?

Thanks in advance, 

Best regards,

 Marta

I am receiving a segfault whenever I attempt to upload a file.   Please see attached .txt for valgrind output.   This occurs in version elog-3.1.5-1.   I reverted back to version elog-3.1.4-3 and the segfault does not occur.

Segfault occurs in Elog version: elog-3.1.5-1

Hello, I have installed ELOG in an Ubuntu 22.04 machine and is working great, but I have found a small bug with Author names.

I have the config set like this for the Author attribute:

Preset Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author

For context, my name is Víctor, which includes the accented "í". When creating a new entry and submitting immediately seems to work well. However, if I create a new entry, save it as draft, go back to the list, and then go to the draft entry, the accented "í" has transformed into "Ã". If I repeat the process, it turns into "ÃÂ", and so on. As I have configured the Author to not be editable, the user cannot fix this manually.

I found a way around this bug by setting

Subst Author = $long_name

Which is okay for us, but might not be for everyone.

In fact I saved this entry as a draft and then on another tab tried to edit it and it wouldn't let me edit because the author name now did not match.

Dear all, 

is there an instruction document how to exacly host the ELOG on a server for example a raspberry pi?

Wishes, 

M

Hi all,

I'm experiencing an issue on Kubuntu 24.04 where the WYSIWYG editor (in HTML mode) doesn't appear at all. This happens across multiple browsers (tested with Firefox and Chromium). The editor area is simply blank, without any visible toolbar or editable content area.

Has anyone encountered this on Kubuntu or found a workaround? Any tips would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
Pawel

BUG#1
Given:

Attributes = Category, Status, Started, Finished, Activity, Headline
Type Started = date
Type Finished = date
Options Status = 1-To Do{1}, 2-Opened{2}, 3-Closed{3}, 4-Suspended{4}
{2} Preset Started = $date
{3} Preset Finished = $date
{4} Preset Finished = $date

There seems to be no setting of Date format (or Time format?) that gives a
meaningful value to attributes Started or Finished.  Even "Date format = %s"
- which gives number of seconds since 1970 - gives bad results.

BUG#2
In single entry view, elog returns an unformatted date value for "Type =
date" attributes - even when it has been manually entered with the date picker.

This worked. Thanks.

Agani, thanks for the information.

For me, when I put the Category in the fixed attributes for reply, I see the
Category but when I actually try to send the message - it says Category not
entered. I am sure I am doing something very stupid. Please help.

I have several date-fields defined in my logboek. But when I click the icon and select another month the pop-up 
window get's filled  with the contants of the logboek instead of the date-selection.

Date format = %Y%m%d
