Hello Stefan

Works great and very usefull - but not when you use reverse sort = 1?.

Is there a way to get both. Pinned first and then the rest i reversed order (highest ID on page 1)

Kind Regards Finn

This is not directly possible, but you can configure it with a trick. Create an attribute "pinned", make it of type "boolean", and set the start page such that it sorts using the "pinned" attribute:

Atributes = ..., Pinned
Options Pinned = boolean
Start page = ?rsort=Pinned

This move all entries where "Pinned" is true to the top of the list.

Hi everybody,

sorry if this question has already been posed (I did a quick search but I didn't found anything): elog sorts entry by ID, I wonder if it is possible to pin an entry in order to be always on top of the page independently on its ID.

Thanks

Giuseppe

Thanks, it worked great!

Find all entries which have this attribute empty. Then click on Select, then select all, then click on Edit, then change all values. There might be a limit how many entries you can select in one go, so you might have to do it in bunches.

I have a question about my logbook. I have recently added a new attribute to my logbook and I would like to prefill all previous entries with a fixed value for this field. Is it possible?

thank you!

Use Email subject = $Subject

Use Email subject = ELOG Ticket: "$Subject" posted by $Author

Hello,

we are extensively using ELOG for documenting changes in our infrastructure. It is very helpful for us.

To avoid multiple documentation efforts it would be even more helpful if the subject of an ELOG entry also could be the subject of the mail which is sent out. With that we could send mails to our ticket system and include the special ticket number to make the right assignment in our ticket system.

Does anyone know if this could be accomplished with the latest version of ELOG?

Best regards,

daniel

Thank you Stefan - it will take a couple of months to set up (many servers being built at the new farm).  I will update you on the success of the files converting automatically.

Stefan Ritt wrote:

Just stop the server. Move your elog directory to the new server (including elogd.cfg, logbook directories, ...). Then check that the elogd.cfg needs modifications, like the URL which might have changed, then start the new server. V2.9.2 did have an old data format, which *should* be converted automatically. But first try it out before deleting the old server.

We are installing a new data center which will be based on Windows 2012 servers.  Our current center is on Windows 2008 and will be decommissioned this year - 2008 servers (because of the security issue) will not be allowed in the new data center.  So game plan is to install latest ELOG (3.1.2) on the 2012 server at the new data center and move the logs over from the 2008 server.  I've looked through entries and do not see anything about moving the logs over from one system to another.  In this case there are 2 concerns:

1.  Has anyone moved the log entries from one system over to another?

2.  Since we are also looking at updating version of ELOG - are there conversion steps necessary for the log entries or will v3.1.2 be able to use the log files from v2.9.2 as is?

Thank you, Lesley
