Is there anyway to reattach a reply within a logbook from one logentry to another? I guess it would be "re-associate"?


No, this is not possible directly. You would have to make a new reply, and manually fill in the contents from the original reply. It is however possible by directly tampering the ELOG files, but that should be done only by experienced users.

I think it would be a big enhancement to allow per-logbook attributes to be additions or subtractions from the global attributes, rather than replacing the global settings.


Sounds to me like a good idea. I will put it on the wishlist.

No, this is not implemented. The only way you have right now is to make two separate logbooks, one for guests and
one for registered users. But I know this is not an optimal solution. I will think about it.

Hi Stefan,
I am searching for a solution in order to have a date automatically generated by another one.

For example I want 1 month more :
I input the first date in "Date publication" : 01/01/2006 and the "Date validation" took automatically the 01/02/2006 value from themselve.

Can I do that with ELOG ?
Thanks for answer.


No, this is not implemented right now.

Could the "Copyright:" line in the elog.spec file be changed to "License:" for the next release? Without this change an RPM can't be built on FC4 (RPM 4.4.1). With the change, rpms can still be built in Enterprise linux 3 (RPM 4.2.3).


Wow, the RPM build depends on that name? Interesting. I changed it in the SVN version, so it will be contained in the next release.

Hello,

I've just set up an ELog server for my research group. (Running on Debian, package version 2.6.1+r1642-1)

I have a question about the email notifications. I read through the config file documentation, but couldn't find the answer (maybe I am just unobservant\?) Is it possible to have the email notifications contain only the title of the log entry (as well as the usual attributes), but not the full text or any attachments? I have users who are worried about their email going over quota from ELog's emails, but who nevertheless would like some kind of notification when new log entries are posted.

Thanks in advance!


Have a look at the option Email format = <n>

I would like to link the CMSROC ELOG at Fermilab:

with the CMS ELOG at CERN:
https://cmsdaq.cern.ch/elog/

I am the administrator of the former. I want to keep the CMSROC logbook content
local, but I would like to make a link to the CMS CERN logbook visible from
http://nippon.fnal.gov:8081/
and ideally to have it show up as a tab from any sub-page.


You can achieve that with the top text option, which lets you define some HTML code visible at every ELOG page. Just create a file, let's call it top.html, and put in following contents:
<table class="frame" cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>
<tr><td class="tabs">
<span class="sltab"><a href="https://cmsdaq.cern.ch/elog/" title="CMS ELOG at CERN">CMSDAQ</a></span>
</td></tr>
</table>

Then put following statement into your elogd.cfg:
Top text = top.html

That should do the job.
