Ok, now I got your point. Sorry for the late reply, but I was extremely busy the last few weeks. I added the missing functionality to elog revision 2108, so the 'subst on edit Last Edit = $entry date' does now work. |
Thanks! Do you mean '$entry time', or did you create a new parameter? (I don't see $entry date in the elogd.cfg reference)
Anway, thank you! |

I would like to be notified by email of some logbook entries regardless of whether the user has chosen to suppress email or not.
This way I will always be aware of new entries, and users will still have the option of notifying a larger group of other users, or not.
As far as I can tell, presently the Suppress Email checkbox overrides Email All.

If I make "Email all" override the suppress email checkbox, some uses would complain "I check the supporess box, but my admin still gets email, what am I doing wrong here?". So while this works for you, it will not be desired for everybody. I would have to add another parameter just for this request. Couldn't you instead use the RSS feed functionality? This way you well see all entries, independent of the email notification. You can use special RSS feed readers (your browser and email client probably support this already).
|
Hmm, I see your point, but wouldn't using the RSS feed have the same effect? Or are you saying the users just wouldn't know about it, so they wouldn't complain? 
I haven't explored the RSS feed options yet. I'll study them.

Your problem is the wrong password parameter. The "-w" password is only if a write password is defined in the config file. If the user level access is chosen however, you have to specify the username/password pair only separated by a blank such as in
elog ... -u myuser mypwassword ...

I tried to reproduce what you said and it worked fine for me. I used:
[demo]
Attributes = Author, Type, Last Edit, Subject
Subst on edit Last Edit = $entry time
And got correctly the entry time copied to the "last edit" field when I changed old entries. I used version V.7.3-2104. |

 | Bruno Serfass | serfass@berkeley.edu | Question | | | "preview attachement" flag not working on thumbnails ? |
Hi,
I would like to turn off the display of attachements when editing an entry in some of our logbooks that contains big file.
So I did set the flag "preview attachements" to 0. It seems to work fine on text file attachment but
the thumbnails for PDF and images (very nice feature by the way!...) are still there...
How can I avoid displaying the thumbnails in the edit mode? This is very important when the attached file is big because
it almost makes it impossible to edit..
Thanks for your feedback!
