I was wondering what is the cleanest way of changing old entries already submitted in ELCode into plain text. If I do not include ELCode in the allowed encodings does this apply to already submitted entries as well or will they still be treated as ELCode?


The encoding is stored as an "invisible" attribute in each entry. You can change it in two ways:

1) Select each entry, click "edit", change the encoding with the radio buttons at the bottom and submit it again

2) Go and edit directly the xxxxxxa.log files in your logbook directory. You will see in those files something like
Encoding: ELCode

and you can change it with an editor to
Encoding: plain

Afterwards you have to restart the elogd daemon.

Did you try the new version, would be interesting to see if it's any better...

I didn't find the time to try it yet but I will do that later today. I will keep you posted - more soon.

Hi Stefan,

A lot of performance-related trouble for us comes from the ability of users to click on "All" and display thousands of entries on the same page. Is there a way to disable that? Even if the ELCode parsing performance of Elog increases greatly, the combination of "Full" mode and "All" will still cause trouble, will it not?

Thanks,
Dimitris

What about a threshold for the "All" display? If a logbook contains less than, let's say, 500 entries, the "All" link is displayed, and above 500 entries it's hidden. Would that make sense?

Hi,

can you think of any obvious reason why the ELCode would not work in the logbooks I set up?
I can use it here, on the forum, and on the DEMO logbook, but not on the ones I created...
Oh, and me inserting "Allowed encoding = " whatever in the config file doesn't seem to mater as well... I always get the 3 options!
Am I missing a flag somewhere?
The config file for this logbook is below...

Thanks a lot

Alex

There is a good reason why this forum contains a ELOG Version tag which you are supposed to fill out for new entries. Without knowing which version you are using I cannot help you. Probably you have an old version which does not support the Allowed encoding.

Hi Stefan,
Sorry for the late response, I was away for a few days. Yes, I think that this would make perfect sense, especially if the maximum number of entries was configurable.

Sorry if this has been asked.

Is there a spell check that can be implemented in Elog or any recommended add on spell check?

Thanks,
