Supress Email to Author of a message?, posted by Mike on Fri May 22 00:22:07 2009
|
I couldn't find an obvious solution to the problem. I'd like to suppress email
notification to the author of a message. I've had some people complaining
that when they use elog they don't want to get an email about what they wrote
since they wrote it.
Is it possible?
Regards,
Mike |

Actually I do want to receive a copy, just to be sure that the emails got sent out correctly. I agree that an option would be good for that but it's not implemented right now. An alternative solution is to define a filter in their email client to discard these messages (like if subject contains ELOG and sender equals your own mail address). |

Here's the issue. We use elog to develope products we need to be able to see all the thumbnail images in a
particular logbook. Our default view is to use the threaded view fully expanded in order to have all the thumbnails
be displayed for each product. This works fine but when we move one message to another logbook the thumbnails
end up getting broken and won't be displayed. The only way to fix this is to remove the image and re-upload the
picture after the message is moved. This is not a good option because we have hundrends of items that are
constantly being moved around from logbook to logbook. Any ideas?

EDIT:
On further inspection it seems that when you are moving messages to another log book the image date filename
is re-written which of course breaks the html link to the image. Is there anyway to supress this so that the filename
stays in tact when it's moved from one book to another. I don't see why the name of an attachment has to get changed
just because something is moved around.

I fixed this in revision #2204. The attachment names now stay the same. There is one tiny risk of screwing up, namely if you have the same attachment name in two different logbooks (accidentally also submitted at the same second and therefore the same time stamp). If you then copy these two entries to a third logbook, one attachment will overwrite the other one, but that risk is indeed really small. I actually had to re-write the link to the attachment inside the text body (even differently for ELCode and HTML encoding). So I'm not 100% sure I covered all cases, so just give it a try. |
ROptions value changed in the edit page, posted by Gabriele Sirri on Wed Apr 15 11:43:14 2009

When ROptions items contain the same substring and this substring is also an ROptions item (ex: notdone,
done), the value of the entry could change in the edit page.
It depends on the item order in the config file.
If Options is used (instead of ROptions), it works as expected.
Is it a bug?
Examples :
#Insert "notdone" as new entry. When you try to edit the entry, the displayed value is "done".
[test_bad]
Attributes = Author, Category
ROptions Category = notdone, done
#No problem if you change the item order
[test_good]
Attributes = Author, Category
ROptions Category = done, notdone |

Thanks for reporting this bug. I fixed it in SVN revisoin 2193. |
"Forgot Password?" link not working?, posted by Mike on Sat Apr 18 02:49:42 2009
|
I have my site running under apache. I don't have a /elog/ directory.
for example most would do http://www.example.com/elog/ to visit elog
but my site loads at http://www.example.com/
The site is private so it's password protected. Everything works fine except
if I click the "Forgot Password" link it does nothing.
but if I go to one of the log books...
http://www.example.com/open/
The forgot password link works.
Is there anyway to fix this? I have nothing else running on the server, it's dedicated to only ELOG.
That's why I don't want to have it running under /elog/ in the url. |
Moving entry (and replies) from one log book to another, posted by David Pilgram on Fri May 1 14:01:44 2009

Hi Stefan,
When Moving entry (and replies) from one log book to another, is it possible to prevent elog from renumbering
the entries' ID number(s) ($@MID@$). While it may not be good practice, we've referred to these numbers in
cross-referencing, and it all goes wrong when an entry is moved from an "Open" thread to a "Closed" thread (cf
your FAQ about marking of whole threads).
In the cases I'm thinking about, i.e. from main logbook to archive logbook(s), there would never be a clash of
ID number.
Thanks,
David Pilgram. |
