Use "conditional attributes" as described in the documentation: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#conditional

[quote="Erik Iverson"]Is there a way to pre-populate the new entry window with one or more attachments? Per the documentation, this is easy to do with
attributes, i.e., http://localhost:8070/demo/?cmd=New&pauthor=joe&ptype=Info as a URL or bookmark will do it. I'd like to do the same thing with attachments,
for example http://localhost:8070/demo/?cmd=New&pauthor=joe&ptype=Photograph&attfile1=picture1.jpg&attfile2=picture2.jpg might prepopulate two attachments, |

Nope, there is no way to acces the last value of an attribute. Sorry.

Sorry Stefan, but it is possible as you have the scripting ability.
The idea is to use "Preset Test_Attribute = $shell(script_to_get_the_last_entry)", where the script asks elog about the details and
parses them. |

Hi Stefan, hi Sebastian,

Is there maybe a way of executing a Script on submitting, writing the values of the Attributes into an temporary file and loading the values |

That would actually be my recommendation. There is a "execute new" which you can call when submitting a new entry.

I am glad, we could help.
I can see a caveat in the recommendation.
By having "Execute New = echo $attrib > /path/last_attrib" and "Preset attrib = $shell(cat /path/last_attrib)" as the most |
