Display legal banner, posted by Ed To on Wed May 24 08:22:36 2006

Hi,
I read somewhere that javascript is supported with elog. For legal reasons, I have to post a legal banner before the login prompt. Can you tell me how to do this? I'm not a programmer, but I guess I could use the javascript alert command to do this. What file would I need to change?
Thank you for your help.
Ed. |

Unfortunately it was not possible to do that for the login page, so I had to add a new option Bottom text login which I implemented just now. You can now indeed use the alert command to do what you want, like
in elog.cfg:
Bottom text login = alert.html
and in alert.html:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
alert("Hello world");
//-->
</script>
or whatever legal statement you have to make.
The new version can be downloaded as elog261-5.exe from the home page. |

Wow, I wasn't expecting that quick of a response. Thanks Stefan. BTW, I really like elog. It's simple to setup and use. Keep up the good work. |

Stefan,
Thanks again. I got it to display my legal banner. |
add field type to automatically email CC, posted by Mark Bergman on Thu May 25 19:41:51 2006

I've got logbooks where I'm submitting entries on behalf of other users, or where other people should be notified of the ticket. This isn't a fixed list of people, and shouldn't be hard-coded into a config file. I've got a field to enter the user's e-mail address, but there's no action associated with that data.
I'd like to see a new field type that allows the entry of e-mail addresses, where each addresses supplied with the logfile entry would be automatically "CC'ed" in the notification e-mail. Ideally, people on the CC list would be (optionally) CC'ed when there are replies or edits to the original elog entry.
For example (snippet of fictional elogd.cfg):
-------------------------------
[web site]
Welcome Title = Issues regarding the web site
MOptions Category = Add links, Change content, Broken Link, Other
CCMailTo = Notification List
Attributes = Author, Category, Severity, Subject, Entry ID, Status, User, Login
Extendable Attributes = Category, Severity, Subject, Status, User, Login, Notification List
Required Attributes = Category, Subject, Status, User
------------------------------- |
restrict access, posted by Gerald Ebberink on Wed Jun 21 22:11:15 2006

Dear all,
I am trying to get elog used in our company but I need some help.
I have two small questions:
-1- how can I restrict the access
of a certain user such that he can only see certain logbooks.
But also not showing the other logbooks on the selection page.
So we could have a tree like this:
Stage one
|
|->Stage 2
|
|
/ \
| |
Co1 Co2
/ \
job job
So when Co1 logs in the should not be able to see Co2 and the attached job
-2- How can I have a login page instead of the logbook selection page.
When I insert the password statement the config, I get a blank page. |

This can be achieved with the "Login user = ..." option.

You could try to use "top groups". This gives you "separate" groups of logbooks, so you could make a public tree
seen by everybody and private trees only seen by a few people. Please read the documentation for details.

You get a login page instead of the selection page if the "Password file = " statement is in the [global] section
and "Protect selection page = 1". You might have to delete all cookies in your browser if you move the password
file statement between the [global] and the logbook sections, because otherwise the old cookies might prevent you
from logging out. |

That is what I found in the mean time. And it works like a charm.

I'm now using this (I had to redesign our tree for that)

This is not working for me, in Mozilla Firefox I'm still getting a blank page, where IE is giving me an error
stating
that the page is unavailable |
