icon5.gif   possible to modify link in email notification, posted by Stefan Siegel on Wed Jul 3 18:36:28 2002 
Hello,

I have a question concerning the following situation:

There is a one logbook with two possible acces methods (defined in config 
file) one for readonly access and one for read/write access. Both entries in 
the elogd.cfg file pointing to the same logbook.

When an allowed person enters a logbook entry with an email notification the 
link to the message is given inside the email. 
This link points to the read/write logbook entry.

Is it possible to alter the link in the email notification that it points to 
the corresponding readlonly logbook entry? 

Thank you for hints, best regards,


Stefan Siegel

Where can I get more information about the config and themes file. I
downloaded the latest version (2.0.4) and the config file docs seem out of
date. I would like to get the icons working as well as getting the email to
work. The demo page at the elog home site shows both but I cannot find ant
references to the icons.
icon5.gif   change the Email From address used when sending notifications, posted by WootenE on Tue Jul 16 15:19:08 2002 
Is there a way to change the From address used when sending notifications 
from ELOG?   I was hoping there might be another attribute that would go 
along with the smtp host section.

Thanks,
Eric
icon5.gif   inserting pictures into a post, posted by d. nettles on Wed Jul 17 23:46:01 2002 
does elog have a way of inserting pictures into a post other than including
them as an attachment? i can put a picture in using html text, but this
method only works if the picture is stored on the local server. anyone
placing a post from a remote machine cannot include a picture off of their
machine.
any help?
thanks.

Right now it is not possible to easily include pictures into the message body, but I put it on the wishlist. Of course you can always refer to external pictures if you submit your text as HTML and put the proper tags there like this one:

and you can even scale them like

but of course this requires to have that image stored somewhere else. I will probably add a feature like

att:name.gif

which will reference a picture from the attachment, and will be converted to the full picture name after submitting that message.

icon5.gif   Scroll box for attributes, posted by mo on Tue Jul 30 17:33:24 2002 
Hello,
   If you have the text box turned off so you only enter attributes, is it 
possible to have a couple of attributes that have small scroll through text 
boxs of a couple of lines rather than just one line?   Like not as big as 
the regular text box but something small to be able to post a couple of 
lines in and if it gets bigger then you scroll down.  For instance if you 
are posting a problem and a solution just have one small text box for the 
problem and one for the solution.

Thanks,
Mo
icon3.gif   New beta version of ELOG, testing required, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Aug 6 15:52:09 2002 
Hi,

I added many features to ELOG recently, but before making a new release, I 
would like some beta testing. In addition to the current modes of 
operation, a logbook can be configured to require a user to be logged in to 
submit new messages. If not logged it, one can only read messages. To 
obtain a new account, one can do a self-registering. In this process, one 
can also enter the email address which is then filled in automatically on 
new logbook entries.

So please go to the forum logbook, create a new account for yourself and 
try things out. If there is any problem, please let me know.

Many thanks in advance, Stefan Ritt.
icon5.gif   Edit an existing message overwrites attributes with preset values, posted by Stefan Siegel on Fri Aug 9 12:40:23 2002 
Hello,

Is there a possibility to prevent elog to overwrite attribute values when 
editing an old message? The old values are overwriten with the preset 
options for that attribute. 
But sometimes you will preserve attribute text and /or options from the old 
message.

Thank you for your help. Regards,

Stefan
