icon5.gif   Need for email address in login?, posted by Jeff Kozloski on Mon Nov 19 20:28:11 2012 

How can I skip the need for an email address when registering and logging in? Our IT dept will not give an email address to each guy I want on the log.

icon5.gif   elog's image manipulation of .png file generated from a pdf/jpg, posted by David Pilgram on Thu Nov 22 16:23:08 2012 
Hi all, 

Is it just my system or do others have this odd issue.

I have a pdf file which is 'upside-down', I attached it to an elog entry, and the .png image thumbnail was
generated.  Now this too was upside-down, so I tried to use the left (or right) rotation buttons along the top
of the image in elog to do a 180 degree rotation.
The first 90 degree rotation was fine, but the second attempt just made a smaller image.  
It happens with various pdf files generated by various software (in case).
I also tried it with a jpg file, in that case the second attempt enlarged the image.

I could not find any way to actually invert the .png image using elog; but I was surprised that a second
rotation ddid something different (change magnification) rather than nothing at all if it could only cope with a
90 degree rotation.

It's not a vital fix for me, but I have found the thumbnail (png) manipulation functions have a few rough edges,
so when necessary I use xv or gimp on the .png file to get what I want.

Or is this just my system?
icon5.gif   Default filtered view, posted by UlfO on Fri Nov 30 09:08:52 2012 

Hi,

Is it possible to have a default filtered view in E-log?

Lets say we have a record with status finished on one attribute.

Is it possible to have a default list view that just shows records with this status?

Any reason why when I click "Reply" to a previous submission that the body is full of HTML code?

icon5.gif   error: "HTML encoding not allowed" , posted by julia on Sat Dec 15 22:37:27 2012 

Hi all,

I'm absolutely new with ELOG and have only basic programming skills...

I'd like to use ELOG, so I have installed it in my computer to start playing with it (I installed version 2.7.0-1953 because with the latest one I got an error with the elogd.cfg file). I've been able to open the Demo logbook but wasn't able to submit a new entry into it. I get the following error:

"HTML encoding not allowed"

Could you please explain me how I could solve this problem?

I thank you in advance for your help.

icon5.gif   Main Logbook screen with Multi Grouped Logbooks with unique user permissions, posted by Hal Proctor on Tue Dec 18 23:03:57 2012 Main.jpgTabs.jpg

I have a couple questions on how to configure multiple logbooks with groups.

  1. How can I have a user have permissions to a single logbook that is within a group and jump to it using tabs?
    1. Launching from main/home screen may work, but using tabs from one group to another where the single workbook resides in a group of others, it errors out or asks for login to a logbook you may not have rights to.(always the first book in the group)
  2. How can I force a main login to direct you to the MAIN logbook selection screen?

 

Example: (use images for reference)  A user has permissions to "Punch" and "Maintenance".  Maintenance is a single logbook and Punch is within the group "Dry Room". 

While the user is in Maintenance and without having to jump back to the MAIN selection screen, how can the user select the Tab "Dry Room" as seen in image, without throwing up or redirecting you?

icon5.gif   number of attachments limit, posted by Devin Bougie on Thu Dec 20 17:08:51 2012 

Hello,

Is there still a limit of 50 attachments per topic?  If so, is there or could there be a parameter to change this setting?

Thanks,

Devin

icon5.gif   How to put "Quote text" _below_ new message?, posted by Valentin on Thu Dec 27 01:33:11 2012 

Hi there,

It seems that by default in a message created as "reply" of another message, the "quoted text" of the original entry is put at the _TOP_ of the new entry and not movable (Firefox 17, elog 2.92). I would strongly like to have it opposite, i.e. that one is able to create a new text first and only then has the "quoted text" since people are interested to see a new information and only then the previous messages as sort of "reminder". It was like this in older (2.6?) version but now I did not find how to change this default behavior. Did I miss something?

Cheers

Valentin
