Re: Elog not see image magick, posted by Stefan Ritt on Wed Nov 30 14:53:41 2016

The detection in elogd works by executing the command "convert" and check if the program executes. If you start elogd as a service, the program might see another path variable. Maybe reboot Windows or start the service in the environment of a real user instead of system, where it might miss your modified "path".

Hello.
I finally try add ImageMagick to ELOG.
I downloaded latest version (ImageMagick-7.0.3-Q16) and installed it. Everything looks ok, but when I start Elog service it says that "ImageMagick not detected".
When I look at the "path" variable i have "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.0.3-Q16;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;[...]".
What else can I check?
Regards
Daniel.
Ps. My system is Windows 7 Pro.

Disable Delete option when user has the capability to Edit an entry, posted by John Becker on Wed Nov 30 18:06:26 2016

Hi, I have a logbook where users can add entries and edit entries.
The delete option has been removed from the menu, but when they edit an entry they are able to delete the entry.
Is there a way to remove the Delete option from the menu that appears when Editing an entry?
Please advise,
Thanks,
John

Re: Error: Entry text too big. Please increase TEXT_SIZE and recompile elogd, posted by Xuan Wu on Thu Dec 1 01:40:14 2016

I just test on your Demo logbook. I use a screen-capture tool to create an image which doesn't been saved as a file, the size is 1920*1080(1.8M), then copy it in clipboard, and then paste in text area. Then the web page become very slow, so that I can't submit it sometime. Sometime, I can submit it but it say "Entry text too big. Please increase TEXT_SIZE and recompile elogd". If I drop an image file into the text area, it works. I used IE11.

How big is your image? I just tried a 5000 x 3600 pixel image (8 MB in size), and it worked fine on the demo logbook.

Thanks for your advice! I've test that dropping an image from my local disk into the text box with Elog-3.1.2. It did work. However, I still have a question want to ask that When I paste a small image into the text area, I can submit it successfully. But when I paste a bigger one, it will say "Entry text too big. Please increase TEXT_SIZE and recompile elogd". And There's the same result in https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/. I can drop the image into text area now, so it doesn't matter.

I guee you tried to paste an image into the text area, and your browser somehow converted this into a text entry, which then of course can become very long. Elog since vesion 3 supports drag-and-drop. You can drop an image from your local disk into the "Drop attachemnts here..." box at the bottom of this page. You can also drag an image directly to the text box like this one: , but some browser might not work correctly. If it's not working for you, try it in the demo logbook https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Linux+Demo/ If it works there, please update your elog to the newest release and you should get it.

Hi all,
A error came out when I pasted a photo in the text area with HTML Encoding. The photo is a snapshot from Print Screen. When I submitted it, it said "Entry text too big. Please increase TEXT_SIZE and recompile elogd". How can I get rid of this? I've tried changing elogd.cfg that: ;Message Height = ;Message Width = or Message Height = 500 Message Width = 500. None of these work.
By the way, I want to ask another question that whether it can load a photo on local disk not only the photo URL by click image of the Image info in CKEditor. Can CKFinder integrate in CKEditor and then it can browse local file on tab of image info. My colleagues prefer pasting photos in text area than uploading it as attachment in our site.
Any advice or sugguestion will be appreciated.

Ah, that's the difference! I always drop an image on the text area, never paste it. So please refrain from pasting.

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your reply, I did as suggested but the button "Delete" still appears when the edit entry is selected.
Am I overlooking something?

No, I get a different result. If I put "Save drafts = 0" in the config example coming with the distribution, I get the following:

sot he "Delete" button is replaced by a "Back" button.
Probably you have an old version of elog, hava a typo on your config, or something like that.
