I was wondering what is the cleanest way of changing old entries already submitted in ELCode into plain text. If I do not include ELCode in the allowed encodings does this apply to already submitted entries as well or will they still be treated as ELCode?


The encoding is stored as an "invisible" attribute in each entry. You can change it in two ways:

1) Select each entry, click "edit", change the encoding with the radio buttons at the bottom and submit it again

2) Go and edit directly the xxxxxxa.log files in your logbook directory. You will see in those files something like
Encoding: ELCode

and you can change it with an editor to
Encoding: plain

Afterwards you have to restart the elogd daemon.

Did you try the new version, would be interesting to see if it's any better...

I’ve tried on the last available release (revision 1732) and I have the same problem.
You said in you previous message that: “I fixed yours now in revision 1734, so give it a try.”
Could you tell me when this one will be available?


Since you checked "Linux" in the "OS" of this entry, I was under the assumption that you were able to compile elog from the Subversion repository (http://savannah.psi.ch/websvn/filedetails.php?repname=elog&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fsrc%2Felogd.c).

If you need the Windows executable, I made http://midas/elog/download/windows/elog262-6.exe for you.

Hi,

I'm trying to pass the name of an attachment in a "Execute new " line, but I can't seem to get the correct syntax...
I've tried:
Execute new = echo "New document with reference $Internal Ref with the name $attachements " >> /home/zeplin3/lixo.log
Execute new = echo "New document with reference $Internal Ref with the name $attachements1 " >> /home/zeplin3/lixo.log
Execute new = echo "New document with reference $Internal Ref with the name $1 " >> /home/zeplin3/lixo.log

but nothing seem to work. If I remove the $attachments bit the output is correct...
Any suggestions?


Sorry there was a type in the documentation. You should write

$attachments

and not

$attachements

then it will work.

I have a logbook that works as a document database, and I don't even allow the entering of text... But the column insists on appearing! Smile

Hi Stefan,

A lot of performance-related trouble for us comes from the ability of users to click on "All" and display thousands of entries on the same page. Is there a way to disable that? Even if the ELCode parsing performance of Elog increases greatly, the combination of "Full" mode and "All" will still cause trouble, will it not?

Thanks,
Dimitris


What about a threshold for the "All" display? If a logbook contains less than, let's say, 500 entries, the "All" link is displayed, and above 500 entries it's hidden. Would that make sense?

can you think of any obvious reason why the ELCode would not work in the logbooks I set up?


There is a good reason why this forum contains a ELOG Version tag which you are supposed to fill out for new entries. Without knowing which version you are using I cannot help you. Probably you have an old version which does not support the Allowed encoding.

Is there a spell check that can be implemented in Elog or any recommended add on spell check?


I personally use Mozilla Firefox 2.0 which has already a built in spell checker. For MS IE, you can use IESpell (http://www.iespell.com).

The Find command page provides an option, 'Display n entries per page' which is useful when the result of the search is to be viewed on-screen.

However this value is also applied to CSV, XML and Raw export and only the 'last' page of data is exported.
For example, if there are 17 matching entries and n is set to 8, only one entry will appear in the exported file.

In my opinion, this option should be ignored for XML, CSV and Raw export and all matching entries should be exported.


This is indeed right. I fixed it in the current SVN revision #1741.
