You need
Preset on reply Author = $short_name
. Subst is supposed to work after a submission, Preset before you open the edit mask. See this forum. If you reply to this entry, your name appears as the Author even if it's locked. Here is the config:
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset Author Email = $user_email
Preset on reply Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author Email = $user_email
Locked Attributes = Author

The Subst can be used for your image category thing. So instead using
Display Category = $category <img src="icons/$category.png" border="0">

you can use
Subst Category = $category <img src="icons/$category.png" border="0">

which physically rewrites the category. This is probably not what you want, but take it as an example. We use it in one place to replace a user name by a link to our internal telephonbook searching for this username, so if one clicks on the user, one ends up in the user's telephonebook entry.


Ok it's working perfectly, my bad Iwas lost in the huge set of config parameters elog accept the first time I installed it Smile

Thank you so much Stefan

My poor man solution is for now to allow everyone to change the author (unlock the field ..)

How can I turn off the formatting controls above the message text when making a new or reply entry? I included the flat 'Default Encoding = 1' in my config file, but it seems to have no effect.


You need the current CVS version which has this implemented, or you wait for the next official release.

The log has been set up to suppress all email notification, as SMTP is not being used at my location (MS Exchange Server is being used).


MS Exchange Server has and SMTP server inside, I use this all the time.

Also How can I turn off the icon selection panel to the left of a new message text box?


By clicking on the smiley on the top row next to "FONT".


Gary Clayson wrote:
And, finally, is it possible to turn off the Suppress Email notification checkbox AND not send emails?


You can put a
Suppress email to users = 1
into the config file, but the checkbox will still be there, but non-functional. Maybe I should remove it in that case...

PS Reworking the source code, then recompiling it, is not a viable option for me at this time.


You are not supposed to <b>rework</b> the source code, but if you want the cutting edge features, you need to recompile from CVS or wait for official releases.


I apologize for my using the incorrect language. I did not mean I would be rewriting your code, merely compiling, linking, and running the new version. The computer elog is loaded one is not one I have access to a compiler on. Sorry if I misspoke!

Hello All. Stefan, would it be possible to add one more option to the Suppress Default flag? I'd appreciate a setting that would suppress emails being sent and remove the option from the page. Or, has this been accomplished? And, if so, what is that setting. Thanks in advance!! Keep up the great work.


I added
Suppress default = 3

which always suppresses email notifications. The addition is under CVS and will be included in the next release.

Thanks Stefan.

Is there another method to accomplish this ? otherwise I's in my wish list Smile


Ok, it's implemented in CVS.

We have several logbooks running here with somewhat cryptic names. The comment field for the
logbook describes its intent well enough, so the thought was that the comment could show up in the
status bar (or tooltip) when you hover over the logbook name in the tabs at the top of the page.


_X_ yea Smile

___ nea Frown


I added a tooltip to the logbook showing the comment field. The status bar is a bit difficult since it requires Javascript and is not supported by all browsers. But I hope the tooltip is good enough. The modification is in CVS, you can try it at the forum.

I like it!
