I too have this as an occasional issue, although in my case due to a dodgy pointer.  I too manually delete the entries.

Interestingly, it gives double entries - and thus the start of a branch - even in logbooks were branches are not allowed.

I just committed some code which disables the "Submit" button after the first click and replaces the text with "Please wait...". So double submits should not be possible any more.

I'm also happy to see this change implemented as we've had to deal with the same issue at times as well. Will this change be incorporated into the latest version (314-2, aka elog-latest.exe), or will there be a new version release (that is not in Changelog yet)? If so, can you give any ETA on this new code availability?

Also I noticed that the Elog Home page still says "Current version is: 3.1.2". I assume that only means it hasn't been updated, not that it means it's the current STABLE version and subsequent releases are beta -- please correct me if I'm wrong. I just want to make sure I understand how the versions and releases work.

Endless thanks for this product and all your work Stefan.

"I committed" means that the change is sent to the GIT repository. People who compile from the source code can pull and compile immediately. Windows users have to wait until I do the next release. I'm developing on a Mac and have to boot a special (old) Windows machine to compile the .exe which each time takes me about one hour including documenation updates, changelog updates, upload of zip files etc. Since my main job is heading a research group, I only can devote this hour once in a while, depending on my work load. Sometime even the weekends are too short.

Thank your very much for your work on this - as i mentioned this is a minor issue.

Kind Regards Finn

Please let me know how to add Button for adding client next to Client Mnemonics.

I need to add bulk client lists in the Elog page there are 1000+ clients  .

I need to select client from the drop down list if its not there i need to add them using Add Client Button 

Please let me know the steps.

When I use the email notification for an entry with images in the text, it seems the email server cannot retrieve the image. When I inspected the URL of the image it went to the login page.

Is that because the logbook has a password config that the access from the URL of the image needs authentication?    Or I am just using the image upload the wrong way .

First thing you want to try is to upgrade elog to the last version. Older versions have problems in including images.

Then you want to check the "Email Format" in your elogd.cfg configuration file. Only if "16" is included there, then attachments are sent as email attachments and images will be included in yoru email. If not, only a link of the image is included in your email, and you correctly realized that you then cannot view the image because your email client does not knwo how to authenticate itself at the elog server.
