Hi John,

Thanks for the message! I’ve downloaded CKEditor version 4.22, since newer versions are no longer fully open source and come with restrictive licensing.  I now have the full CKEditor 4.22 package locally, but I’m not quite sure what the next step is. Should I place it somewhere specific in the ELOG directory structure or modify one of the templates to enable it? Any pointers on how to connect it properly to ELOG would be very helpful.

Best regards,
Pawel

Hi all,

I'm experiencing an issue on Kubuntu 24.04 where the WYSIWYG editor (in HTML mode) doesn't appear at all. This happens across multiple browsers (tested with Firefox and Chromium). The editor area is simply blank, without any visible toolbar or editable content area.

Has anyone encountered this on Kubuntu or found a workaround? Any tips would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
Pawel

Hello everyone, I am new to the forum.

I currently have an attribute which is a list. From this drop down menu, I can only access around 100 options (ELog restriction I think). How can I extend my drop down list to say 200?

Example:

Attributes = RB

Options RB = a, b, c, ...,etc.

Thanks,

Paul

Example:

Options RB = a, b, c, ...,etc.

The number of 100 options is defined in elogd.c with

#define MAX_N_LIST  100

You could try to increase this to 200, but I have no idea if you will hit some other memory limit then. So what about conditional attributes? You subdivide your list into several smaller lists, like

Attributes = Category, RB
Options Category = Cat1{1}, Cat2{2}
{1}Options RB = a,b,c,d...
{2}Options RB = e,f,g,h,...
this is then also easier to handle, as compared to select a value from a very long list.

 

Stefan,

Thanks for that advice. I have made that change to the elogd.c file, but the only problem I don't know how to compile Elog to make that change take effect. I did the stop and restart of the elog  service in windows, but that made no difference. How do I compile ELog? Sorry for my ignorance, but I am fairly new to Elog.

You need a C compiler to compile Elog under Windows. If you don't have one, I would suggest to follow the advice to use conditional attributes. This does not require a recompilation of Elog.

Stefan,

I can get my hand on a C compiler. What the process involved?

Thanks,

Paul

 Sorry, but teaching you how to compile C programs is beyond the scope of this forum. Please buy a book for that. Most C compilers also comes with some decent documentation. You might try gcc under cygwin or Visual C++.

Stefan,

Thanks for your help. Will get back to you on how compiling the program went.

I have a muliple entry field, which is defined by MOptions, which allows you to make multiple selections into one field.

My problem is that when I try to select this option from the Quick filter menu option, it brings back no entries.

When I use the search option this works fine. Any ideas on where I go from here?

Thanks,

Paul

Recently I fixed some issues with MOptions. Please update to version 2.7.5.

 

 

 Many thanks, the latest version addresses this problem.
