hello all,

#1 i love ELOG : excellent app! i would like to ask/present a question here -- I have a couple of TYPE's defined as;

       Options Type = Day Shift, Swing Shift, Night Shift
What I'd love to be able to do, is depending on what TYPE was selected during the creation of a NEW ENTRY in the ELOG "shift log" I'd love to display in the LIST VIEW (full, summary, or threaded views) different color's based on which TYPE was selected...

for example, if someone chose "Day Shift" that would be listed with a GREEN background, if someone chooses "Swing Shift" that gets a BLUE background, and so forth... I am wondering how one would go about implementing this?

second question... instead of listing the column named TYPE, can I just change it somewhere in the config to "SHIFT" so that in the list view, and even when in the NEW ENTRY form, I'd like it to show "Shift" instead of TYPE --- really I am just wondering if I can change the verbage that ELOG is using for the term TYPE? Is that doable?

Thanks for the app, I look forward to any reponses! I been editing the CSS, and once done think I'll add it to yr Config Examples, as I don't see many CSS themes there...

-peace-

Hello,

I try to have two Extendable options : Client and Equipment
so here is the line in my elogd.cfg
Extendable options = Client, Equipment

When I create a new entrie, I have the 2 scroll menus(Client and 
Equipment) and the 2 buttons(Client and Equipment) but i can't create 2 
news entries, i must create one for client, after I submit, I edit one 
more time and add a new equipement. Is there a solution for this?

Thanks a lot and sorry for mistakes or problem of comprehension i'am 
french :)

I found two potential memory leaks which I fixed in the git version, so you can try again.

Another possibility, which is actually preferred, is to limit the size of the subject filed to a reasonable number. You can do that with following option

Format subject = 0, attribname, attribvalue, 80, 200

This shows the subject line with a width of 80 characters, but does only allow 200 characters to be entered there.

Best,
Stefan

Just tested, and it works! Many thanks for very quick patch!

Yes, that is a good suggestion, I'll implemented it.

Many thanks again!

Maybe consider using the options -W -Wall when compiling elogd.
There are several warning messages.

I downloaded the last elog-3.1.5-1.tar.gz to install elog.

All *.cxx files are missing.
