Is there a way to choose the display order in threaded mode.

Eg:

1 Test
2 Version 2.0 Testing 1
3 Version 2.5 Testing 2
4 Version 2.3 Testing 3


But the preferred sort order (not the ID) is something like this:
1 Test
2 Version 2.0 Testing 1
4 Version 2.3 Testing 3
3 Version 2.5 Testing 2


Example of parameter perhaps:
Thread order = Field1, $id


Or is this something too difficult to implement? Or already there?

Best regards

In summary mode, you can sort by clicking on a column header. You will then see something like

http://.../?sort=Field1

in the address bar. If you now switch to threaded display, this vanishes of course, but you can put a

Start page = ?sort=Field1

into your config file. Use sort for ascending order, rsort for descending order.

I know you want to make ELOG a stand alone program. But is there a way to still make a stand alone but have the option work with LDAP?
FYI
Elog works great we us it for our shift carryover and we have about 25 people useing it and I have heard no complants with it.
Thanks


I added your vote to the "PAM" authentication on the wishlist, since PAM contains an LDAP module.

I am not so bold as to log this as a bug but one of my Quicklink fields just do not work.


Sorry my late reply, but now I have fixed this problem. The update is under SVN and will be contained in the next release.

Is it possible to configure elog to copy a new entry from 1 logbook to another?


No, you have to copy entries manually with the "Copy to" menu command. For that, you have to put something like

Menu commands = List, New, Edit, Copy to, Delete, Reply, Duplicate, Find, Config, Help

into your configuration file.

Hi Jason, how is going? Long time no hear!

What you need is following line in your config file:
URL = http://localhost:8080/

This is because elog does not know its "own" address, and therefore tries to figure this out over the network. Your laptop probably has the name "syslvester", and you run it inside columbia.edu, so it "thinks" it can reach itself via http://sylvester.columbioa.edu:8080. The URL statement above overrides this "guess".

Best regards,

Stefan

For instance, I have a server logbook that several people are able to write to. There is one person that is ultimately responsible for this server. I would like to generate an email any time that someone other than the System Administrator creates a new entry.


No, but there is a trick you can use. Put following into your config file:
Attributes = Author, ...
Preset Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author
Options Author = Admin{1}, other{2}
{1}Suppress default = 1

Replace "Admin" with the name of the administrator. The "Author" field gets automatically set to the author name, and it's locked, so there will no be drop-down box which lets you select between "Admin" and "other". Now if the author is equal to "Admin", the condition {1} becomes true, and the "Supress default is executed. This check the "suppress email notificatio" box at the bottom, so normally no email gets sent from the administrator.

The URL is fixed at whichever logbook that is selected (e.g. ELOG 2.5.9-4 is <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css"> & ELOG 2.6.0-1 is <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost:8080/demo/default.css">).


So what is your problem? Can't you access http://localhost:8080/demo/default.css ?

If so, you could use an
URL = http://{your host}:8080/

option in your config file, where you replace {your host} with your real host name.
