Is there a way to choose the display order in threaded mode.

Eg:

1 Test
2 Version 2.0 Testing 1
3 Version 2.5 Testing 2
4 Version 2.3 Testing 3


But the preferred sort order (not the ID) is something like this:
1 Test
2 Version 2.0 Testing 1
4 Version 2.3 Testing 3
3 Version 2.5 Testing 2


Example of parameter perhaps:
Thread order = Field1, $id


Or is this something too difficult to implement? Or already there?

Best regards

In summary mode, you can sort by clicking on a column header. You will then see something like

http://.../?sort=Field1

in the address bar. If you now switch to threaded display, this vanishes of course, but you can put a

Start page = ?sort=Field1

into your config file. Use sort for ascending order, rsort for descending order.
  1595   Tue Jan 17 01:01:05 2006 Question Jason Koglinkoglin@astro.columbia.eduQuestion V2.6.0localhost definition problem
I've been running elog on my laptop for about a year. I have had a problem several times now when I have had a bad crash of my computer that afterwards elog does not run correctly. The problem appears to be that "localhost" (e.g., http://localhost:8080/) gets changed to a domain name (http://sylvester.columbia.edu:8080/) which is not registered. I only want it to access this elog database locally on my machine and do not even want to set it up as a web server.

I freshly installed it and when I type in http://localhost:8080/ it sends me to http://localhost:8080/demo/ . If I click on the first and only entry it sends me to http://sylvester.columbia.edu:8080/demo/1 and an error occurs loading the page. However if I type in http://localhost:8080/demo/1 it brings up the first entry correctly, but with no formatting because presumably it is looking in the wrong place for the default theme.

How do I fix this since this time reinstalling and rebooting hasn't fixed the problem?

Thanks,

Jason.

The URL is fixed at whichever logbook that is selected (e.g. ELOG 2.5.9-4 is <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css"> & ELOG 2.6.0-1 is <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost:8080/demo/default.css">).
  1599   Wed Jan 18 02:22:44 2006 Question Adam BlandfordAdam.Blandford@dsto.defence.gov.auBug report 2.6.0Attribute substitution in email configuration
In the logbook config file I am not able to use attribute substitution in the <string> tag for
Use Email Heading = <string>
Attribute substitution does work however for
Use Email Subject = <string>
e.g.
Use Email Subject = ELOG $logbook entry; $Category: $Subject
will result in an email subject of: "ELOG Forum entry; Bug Report; Attribute substitution in email configuration"
Use Email Heading = A new entry has been submitted by $long_name on $remote_host on $date
will result in an email heading of: "A new entry has been submitted by $long_name on $remote_host on $date"

Not sure if this functionality is intended or is a bug. An comment/feedback/suggestion would be appreciated.

Sorry my late reply, but now I have fixed this problem. The update is under SVN and will be contained in the next release.

Hi Jason, how is going? Long time no hear!

What you need is following line in your config file:
URL = http://localhost:8080/

This is because elog does not know its "own" address, and therefore tries to figure this out over the network. Your laptop probably has the name "syslvester", and you run it inside columbia.edu, so it "thinks" it can reach itself via http://sylvester.columbioa.edu:8080. The URL statement above overrides this "guess".

Best regards,

Stefan

So what is your problem? Can't you access http://localhost:8080/demo/default.css ?

If so, you could use an
URL = http://{your host}:8080/

option in your config file, where you replace {your host} with your real host name.

It was not implemented, however you call this Wink

I added that in the current SVN version, so it will be contained in the next release.
