Maybe you could consider setting as default:
Email format = 111


Well, then people will come up and ask: I can see some attachment name in my email, but the attachment is missing, what can I do?. So they would not find the configuration option as you did not, and complain here. You never can make everybody happy Frown

An alternative approach however would be to limit the attachment size. If above 1 MB for example, do not send it. Then make this a flexible parameter (maybe someone wants 2 MB). I will think about that.


Of course you're right. I suggested using "111" because then in email notification there is a link to the attachment.
Which for me is enough Smile. But there always will be someone that's not happy.

Your solution is nice but then attachments will be sent in a bit inconsistent way.
Easier would be to make it more obvious in the documentation.
I don't know put it in the FAQ or something (under: "Why my posts with large attachments are submitted so slowly" Wink).

icon5.gif   How to get a list of registered users assigned to an attribute?, posted by Kishore Masand on Thu Jul 31 06:39:40 2003 
Hi,

I am trying to create an issues logbook where I have defined an attribute 
so I can track who this issue is assigned to. In order to get a drop-down 
list of users of the system to show up for that attribute (when creating a 
new issue), I have to type in the whole list of users in the config file. 
The problem is that whenever a user self-registers, I have to go into the 
config file and add that user to the list. Is there a way to write 
something like this:

Options Assigned To = $user_list

I am a new user, and am thoroughly enjoying working with ELog. Thanks for 
such a neat product. I have not been able to go through all the logs yet 
to figure out if this question has been asked/answered before.
icon5.gif   Options Category : User\Admin, posted by Kim Rosmo on Fri Feb 6 10:47:11 2009 

Hi :)

First i have to say that i love this exelent program,

and that it saved me Hours of trouble using it ^^

Thanks Stefan Ritt :)

 

Now.. here is my problem :P

 

1. I was wondering if there is a possibility to have separate 'Options Category'..  One for Admin and one for User?

    If it is possible, can i have an example?

 

2. How can i arrange pictures in the main window, f.eks 1 picture in center, to the right or wherever i want?

Regards

Kim R

This is unfortunately not possible. All users see the same options.

You can put the pictures in a table, and align the table cells accordingly. Here is an example:

 elog.png  elog.png

 

Now you can make the border invisible by setting "border=0". This however can only be done in the HTML mode, so you have to switch using the top left icon "Show HTML source code" and then manually edit the code. This requires some basic HTML knowledge. The result will look like this:

 elog.png  elog.png

 Thanks for a fast reply :)

Its a lot of html tutorials on the net, so i think i will make it with the tables ^^

Regarding the 'Options Category' I can live with it... I have removed edit mode in User, so only Admin can delete or edit.

One last question.. Background color possible?  (Not Style)

Hi Stefan,

 

Thank you very much for your reply. So which SMTP type can I use now? Is outlook OK?

Gmail uses a type of SMTP authentication which is currently not supported by elog. It's however on the todo list.

icon5.gif   elogd crashes on log out, posted by Kevin Robinder on Wed Apr 27 21:27:25 2005 
Since updating to version 2.5.8 we have been having problems with the elogd 
service crashing whenever anyone attempts to log out. We are using stunnel 
4.09 on a Win 2k system.

When someone tries to log out of e-log from their desktop the machine 
hosting the service throws an error popup wanting to report to Microsoft. 
The error signature has the following information:

szAppName: elogd.exe
szAppVer: 0.0.0.0
szModName: elogd.exe
szMidVer: 0.0.0.0
offset: 0003586a

Clicking to get the technical information it wants to send it shows these 
two file names:

C:\DocumentsandSettings\krobinde\LOCALS~1\temp\WER6F.tmp.dir00
\elogd.exe.mdmp
C:\DocumentsandSettings\krobinde\LOCALS~1\temp\WER6F.tmp.dir00\appcompat.txt

Let me know if there is any further information you need.

Yes, I am up to date with the latest version (2.5.8-6).

What other information can I provide that might assist in diagnosing this?
