Dear all,
Is it possible to have a dynamic "preset text" option?
I would like to switch the template file depending on the attribute value. (Of course this attribute values will be a fixed list of options, not extandable).
I see there one difficulty, that: if user already started editing the text body, he could lose this data. But I think that this could be left on user responsibility to take care about it.
Another option could be to always insert the template text on the very beginning of the text body.
Is this feature implemented, or maybe someone have done it by changing the server code?
Cheers

This is possible with conditional attributes. An additional trick would be to not show the text body of an attribute is not selected. This way the user first has to select the attribute, then the text field with the specific preset will show up. The configuration would be something along these lines:
Attributes = Type, Subject
Options Type = One{1}, Two{2}, Three{3}
Show text = 0
{1} Preset text = text1
{2} Preset text = text2
{3} Preset text = text3
{1,2,3} Show text = 1
Of course you have to supply proper text files text1, text2, text3.

I fixed that in the SVN revision 1583. The fix will be contained in the upcoming version 2.6.1. |

Please note that if you make it too big, you will get a stack overflow and
elogd will crash. |
