 We have configured several logbooks to allow users to duplicate an entry in another logbook, which is very useful for entries which apply to more than one category.

However, once the entry is duplicated, subsequent revisions to the original entry are not copied to the duplicate entries.

I can see where implementing that would add a lot of code to ELOG.  Rather than do that, would it be possible to add a configuration option to duplicate only the attributes, and place a link to the original entry in the body of the duplicated entry instead of the full text?

I don't know if you are aware, but you can put links to other entries manually into the text. Just enter them in the form elog:65799. You can click on that link which takes you the entry you reference. Unfortunately there is at the moment no automatic way to generate this back link automatically.

Thanks, I was not aware of that - usually I have copied and pasted the entire path from my browser.

In any case, can you consider my request for possible future implementation? I think it's a useful function. For now, it's really no big deal to simply copy the url before selecting the Copy To: menu and then replacing the body text with the copied link. But I think it would be more useful to make this happen automatically, so I don't have to ask users to comply voluntarily.

Thank you.

 It would be nice to have the option of including an attachment indicator column in summary view to show if an entry has any attachments.

Thanks.

it seems out systemlang is en_US,

#date

and i want to change the local lang only for the elogd.

i tried it with .bash_profile in the elog homedir with

LANG=de_AT
export LANG

but it doesn't work.


how can i change it to get  ?

#date

I investigated this and found that elogd itself does not use the locale properly, so I have to change the code. I will let you know when I fixed this problem.

Nice idea. I implemented that feature, as can be seen at the contributions logbook for example. It will be contained in the next release.

Would it be possible to instead of appearing a "clip" and/or "multiple-clips" (as the number of attachments grow) to appear a number which will be = to the count of attachments to avoid the column become too wide?

Hope it works because this is tool better every day.

Keep up the GOOD Work!
