Yes, of course I mean '$entry time', sorry for the misspelling.


Well, we really appreciate the way you keep adding features and making improvements. I thought you might have slipped a new one in!



FYI, I think there's a little bug in the datetime vs $date implementation.

Here's a section of my config file implementing a "Last Edit" field:

Type Last Edit = datetime
Preset Last Edit =$date
Locked Attributes = Last Edit
Subst on edit Last Edit = $date
Start page = ?rsort=Last Edit

I expected that "Preset Last Edit =$date" would set Last Edit to the current date when I create a new entry. In fact that leaves the field empty, or at least not in datetime format.

I found that using this instead works:
Preset Last Edit =$entry time

which seems contradictory since
Subst on edit Last Edit = $date
works fine.

 Stefan,

perhaps there should be something like the bold text below in elogd.c:

int process_http_request(const char *request, int i_conn)^M
...

   /* extract cookies */^M
   if ((p = strstr(request, "Cookie:")) != NULL) {^M
      p += 6;^M
      do {^M
         p++;^M
         while (*p && *p == ' ')^M
            p++;^M
         strlcpy(str, p, sizeof(str));^M
         for (i = 0; i < (int) strlen(str); i++)^M
            if (str[i] == '=' || str[i] == ';')^M
               break;^M
         if (str[i] == '=') {^M
            str[i] = 0;^M
            p += i + 1;^M
            for (i = 0; *p && *p != ';' && *p != '\r' && *p != '\n' && i < (int) sizeof(cookie); i++)
                      cookie[i] = *p++;

...

 Well, kind of. If you notify yourself with elog entries, they are grouped in a thread in your email application. From there you can forward the thread to someone. Or you forward the link to one entry in the thread, and if the link is the opened, the interested parties see the whole link. Sending the whole thread inside elog is however not possible.

However, the main reason for the request was that the I was so pleased with the ordering introduced in 2.7.5 but, as it is more normal for me  to look down a list of names ordered by last-name/first-name than the other way about, I thought it worth asking if there was any way to do this sensibly.  I appreciate that it isn't simple and what suits me may well not suit others - so thanks for taking time to consider the possibilities.  I guess the only real solution is to define users differently, e.g. by structuring the name data into first name(s) and last name (not a global solution but would suit most of western europe and the USA at least!) but that is bound to have lots of impacts both on the application and on existing setups - so not really feasible, and probably not worth the disruption.

 

 That's correct. Adding first name(s), last name(s) requires major modifications which are not se easy and I don't have time for that in the moment. So we'll keep it for the time being.

 That's fine.  Thanks for listenening - and for keeping on with elog
