| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | Windows | | Re: Attribute and checkbox | Well, what we use for such kind of check lists is the following:
Use Preset test = file.txt where file.txt contains exactly the ASCII code you mentioned, like
[ job done] [ customer ] [ activity ] [ What should be done ]
[] BLA Check job1 Backup mail check
[] BLA1 Check job2 check error report
[] Bla2 Check job3 check MQ jobs
So one can put the "X" in the "[]" manually. I know, the individual lines are no real elog attributes, but it works nicely for some check lists. Drawback might be that a use can edit the whole text, but sometimes I find that's even a plus, since the user might add some comments. |

Dimitrios Tsirigkas wrote: | Hi Stefan,
We have had problems with some users who subscribe for elog notifications using fake email addresses. When this happens, e-mail notifications stop working for all users and I have to find out which is the problematic email address and fix it myself. Is this a known problem? Is there a fix in a version newer than 2.6.1?
Thanks,

Hi Dimitris,
in fact I have the same problem here with the forum. So far I did not find a clever solution, but I have some thought on how to minimize it:
- Do the self registration by sending a key to the registered email address. Only by using that key the account can be activated. This way at least on ensures a proper email address initially. There are however ways to temporaryly generate email accounts, which kind of bypasses this system. Furthermore, if an email address becomes invalid because the domain is switched off, this does not help.
- Email at least an error notification to the admin in case of failure.
You would say "why not removing the invalid email address"? Well that's kind of hard, since I send the email notification to all recipients in one email. Therefor I cannot figure out which is the offending email address. If I would send the emails separately to everyone, this can easily take minutes, which in turn would block the email server for that time. A solution would be a multithreaded server, which in fact is planned, but will not come so soon. If you come up with another clever solution please let me know. |

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | Windows | 2.6.2 | Re: Entry Submission Help |
kcmin wrote: | 1. When an entry is submitted is it possible to have it return to the submit page instead of a summary of the entry. In the ELog.cfg syntax on the site it mentions something about this. However It says something about a file being present in the resource directory. I am not sure what to do here. |
You can hand-write a HTML file which gets displayed after submission, but that's probably not what you want. Unfortunately there is no option to go back to the submit page, so you have to click New again. If you want to enter a bulk of data, you can also do a CSV import. Maybe that's easier for you. Just write a comma-separated-value file, and import it via "CSV Import".
kcmin wrote: | 2. When you submit an entry is it possible for the fields to stay set to the value that was selected on submission of the last entry. You would need to still be able to change them though. |
The Duplicate command was made for that. Just select an entry which is close to your new one (might be the last one entered), and click Duplicate. This gets you to what you want. |

Ok, has been fixed. Will come in 2.0.5

The documentation was wrong about that which has been corrected. The proper
file contents should be
<h1>You successfully submitted a message</h1>
<a href="?cmd=Back">Back</a> to the logbook<p>
<a href="?cmd=New">Enter</a> another message
This way one only needs one file for all logbooks. |
