By looking in the Syntax of elogd.cfg section, it seems to be correct, but I am not sure. Can you give me a suggestion on how it should look?

A common mistake is to think that "Author" is some kind of keyword: it is not.
You can use any defined attribute, if you want to use "Author" this attribute needs to be defined in the "Attributes=" command line.
Attributes = Author, ...
Then you can use the "Preset" command.
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author = $long_name
I've just tested it with 2.9.0-2435 and it works fine.
If the following 4 line minimal logbook configuration does not work for 2.9.1, then please post again:
Attributes = Author
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author
Cheers

Thanks Andreas,
That cleared up a lot for me. With your information I was able to figure it out. I got rid of the Author and just went with Name, and now it all works good.
Again, thanks for your help,

Kees Bol wrote: | What goes wrong here? |
The wrong sorting is a mystery to me. I redid what you have, and entered exactly the same entries, and got following:
As you can see, the sorting is quite different. What happens if you reload the page, what if you restart elogd?
As for the missing validity check for the date field, all what was missing was the year check. I added that. |

Stefan, I think it has something to do with version 2.57-1. Yesterday evening I installed V2.60 and there was a big difference. All entries of Logdate were changed in 1-jan-70 and when entering/editing an entry I now get the calendar and clock. So everything, including sorting, looks good now.

| Devin Bougie | devin.bougie@cornell.edu | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.1 | Re: attachments created using "Image" button can not be clicked-on and do not appear in the attachment table. | As there appears to be some inconsistencies, I thought I'd document the behaviour of each of the attachment options.
------
1. Click on the "Image" button in the CKEditor, click on "Choose File" and browse to the file, click on "Send it to the Server", and click "OK".
- The image appears inline at the configured "Thumbnail size", but it is not clickable and it does not appear in the attachment table when viewing the entry.
2. Drag and drop an image into the body of the message.
- The image appears inline at the configured "Thumbnail size" and is clickable. As with "1," however, it does not appear in the attachment table when viewing the entry.
3. Drag and drop an image into the "Drop attachments here ..." section.
- The image appears in the attachment table at the configured Thumbnail Size, and is clickable.
4. From the attachment table, click on "Choose File" and then click on "Upload."
- The image appears in the attachment table at the configured Thumbnail Size, and is clickable.
------
We need to make sure the images are always clickable so that you can always view the full-sized image. Any suggestions for fixing this, short of reverting to v2.9.2, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again,
Devin

This has been confirmed usign the Demo forum on this server. For example, please see https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/8
When an image is attached using the "Image" button in the CKEditor, that image does not appear in the attachment table for that entry. In addition, the image can not be clicked on to view the full image.
This was not the case in v2.9.2, at least.
Is there some configuration option I could toggle to change this behaviour? By default, we would like any attachment (whether it's made using drag and drop, the Image button, or the "Choose File" button) to appear in the attachment table *and* be clickable to view the full image.
Thanks,
Devin

Well, you can have "inline" pictures like that:
In this case it is clumsy if this image gets displayed twice, once in the text and once as the attachment. So I look at the entry and if I find the image inlined, I suppress the display at the end. Now the "check if the image is shown inline" is a bit stupid, it just looks for the link. So I never thought that someone would just put a link in the text manually. I will have a look and see if I can change that. |

One question just for curiosity: How did you obtain the link to the attachment? Don't you first have to submit the entry, then get the attachment link via the browser ("Copy link location"), then edit the same entry, then paste a link? This is rather complicated, that's why I could not imagine that someone really does it. Or do you want to achieve something else? |

I improved the mentioned check for inline attachments. Now your page correctly shows both attachments. This fix is in SVN revision 2241. |
