icon5.gif   Is there a way to indicate when an entry has been edited?, posted by Dennis Seitz on Thu May 15 19:57:23 2008 

 You've probably seen my other posts on this subject.

I want to be able to re-edit some entries but I need some way to know the dates entries were re-edited.

Am I just approaching this the wrong way? Should I disable re-editing of entries and use threads to follow changes by posting replies to an entry?

The only problem with that is that if I make a mistake I will have to submit a new entry to fix it. 

 

Thank you for your advice.

Thank you very much

Joe..

The problematic part is the "\" in the filename, which is not correctly recognized as a directory. I will fix this in the next release. For now, just click on the Browse button, navigate to d:\, and then select there the file aaa.doc.

 

Hi, I'm having the same problem, too, when attempting to upload an attachment.  I'm using version 2.7.3-2095.

I wasn't able to attach an image by clicking on the Browse button, clicking on the desired file, hitting the Open button, and then hitting the Upload button.  I just noticed that I could upload my error screen to this forum:

Thanks for any help you can provide.

icon5.gif   Conditional Attributes Boolean?, posted by Grant Jeffcote on Mon May 19 06:14:04 2008 
Hi Stefan,

After searching the manual and not finding (missing?) the answer is it possible to add conditional statements to a Boolean attribute? I would like a tick box to be able to trigger an event when submitted.

Many thx
icon5.gif   using elog client in secure mode, posted by Luc Goossens on Mon May 19 16:02:23 2008 

Hi,

I am trying to enter a log record in secure mode into a log book hosted on an apache server (v2.7.2).

After reading this forum I have recompiled  the client using revision 2100 (well actually the head of svn).

But entering the record still does not work.

This is what I get

the man pages seem to be out of sync and anyway mention two passwords to be usable, so they are not very helpful/clear

 if somebody could tell me the right combination of options

and/or confirm/deny that this combination of client and server can work at all

I would be very grateful.

many thanks,

icon5.gif   "preview attachement" flag not working on thumbnails ?, posted by Bruno Serfass on Fri May 23 20:56:43 2008 
Hi,

I would like to turn off the display of attachements when editing an entry in some of our logbooks that contains big file. 
So I did set the flag "preview attachements"  to 0. It seems to work fine on text file attachment but 
the  thumbnails for PDF and images (very nice feature by the way!...) are still there...

How can I avoid displaying the thumbnails in the edit mode? This  is very important when the attached file is big  because
it almost makes it impossible to edit..

Thanks for your feedback!

I tried to reproduce what you said and it worked fine for me. I used:

[demo]
Attributes = Author, Type, Last Edit, Subject
Subst on edit Last Edit = $entry time

And got correctly the entry time copied to the "last edit" field when I changed old entries. I used version V.7.3-2104.

OK, now I realize how stupid I sound here. To partially answer my own question: $entry time is a string and Last Edit is now a number since I have changed it to the datetime type so that it will sort properly.

So I can't make Last Edit = $entry time. Is there some way I can access the entry time in datetime format so that I can set Last Edit equal to that?


Ok, now I got your point. Sorry for the late reply, but I was extremely busy the last few weeks. I added the missing functionality to elog revision 2108, so the 'subst on edit Last Edit = $entry date' does now work.

I fixed that in revision 2109.
