I fixed that bug just now, thanks for reporting it. It's available in revision
1.535 under CVS. |

| Bartjan Wattel | bartjan@wattel.net | Question | Windows | v2.5.3 | Only show log entries for logged-in user | Hi,
Is it possible to restrict the display of logbook entries to the entries
created by the currently logged-in user?
I'm thinking of using the ELOG system in a school laboratory environment:
students must write entries in the logbook about their excersises, but I
would like that students can not "see" what other students have written. To
make it even more complicated, I would like that students can see their own
entries and the teacher entries.....
Is something like this possible?
Thanks in advance

teacher. It should then be fairly simple to set up the permissions however you
would like. For a large class it might be a bit cumbersome to set it up this way.

What you can do is put most of the configuration options into the [global] section,
such as
[global]
Attributes = ...
Password file = ...
...
Admin user = teacher
[John]
Login user = john
[Joe]
Login user = joe
[Fred]
Login user = fred
In this case, each logbook only requires two lines, while all the other options are
inherited from the [global] section. The "login user" restricts logins only to a
single student, which the teachis has admin rights for all logbooks. The teacher can
reply to individual students by writing into their "personal" logbook, or he can set
up a dedicated teacher logbook which everybody can read (Just omit the 'login user'). |

| Gary Cramblitt | garycramblitt@comcast.net | Question | Linux | v2.3.9 | Modify the date of an entry? | Great program! Thank you.
Short of manually editing the logbook files, is there a way I can change the
date of an entry? I want to transfer my "Linux Journal", which I have been
writing as a regular document for several months, into elog so I can take
advantage of the threading, sorting, find, etc. |

You cannot change the entry date, since this is kind of system stamp which
should not be modified. But you can add an attribute like "Issue" for your
Linux Journal, where you can add manually the month and year of release or so.
Then you can preset this attribute with the current date, which you can change
for older issues, like
Attributes = ...., Issue
Preset Issue = $date
Date format = %B %Y
Hope this helps.

Yes! Thank you. But now another question. How can I hide the entry date
attribute on the summary screens and automatically sort by Issue? No point in
showing both dates. |

I figured out how to hide columns, using the "Display search" parameter. (BTW,
suggest you modify the Administrator manual to mention that "Display search" applies
to the initial display as well as any "Find"s. I had seen this, but assumed it
only applied to actual search results.) Still have not figured out how to change
the default sort attribute however. |
