Hi,

after ubuntu 16 system upgrade, elog version (3.1.1-1-1) on firefox version 56.0+build6-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 , the drop-down menus (Styles, Font, Size, etc) don't work anymore.

How can I fix it?

Many thanks!

Sara

I'm (mis)using elog as a database. I like the fact that I can have presets for fields, but I also like the fact 
that I can make a duplicate of an entry. Now when I make a duplicate, all the fields get overwritten with the 
preset-value. Is there a way to get the preset-values only on entering a NEW reord and NOT on a duplicate ?

I could take away the presets, most of them are "***" (literally) to be able to search for entries that do not 
have a value, but I don't know how to search for empty fields.


PS: They wanted to do a CMDB in BMC-Magic (really expensive $$$-ware), but after about 1 afternoon (and about 6 
prototypes) they went with elog since it was fast, cheap and already implemented (and filled with 200 entries 
through a script using some old CSV list we had lying around) :-) 

 

I think this is a bug report. 
However, I am not sure whether the problem is in the new version of Apple's WebKit (15.4) or in the ELOG itself.

When we edit an ELOG record with Safari (as of version 15.4, new WebKit features added) the number of "newline" symbols (actually LF, 0xA) are doubled.

So, for instance, if I edit the following page (1 LF symbol between "aaa" and "bbb"):
```
aaa
bbb
```

then after a "Submit" (without actually any changes) the record becomes (2 LF symbols):

```
aaa

bbb
```

then after a "Submit" (without actually any changes) the record becomes (4 LF symbols in between):
```
aaa



bbb
```

NOTE: The LF symbol at the end (after the "bbb" line) does NOT get duplicated (it gets truncated, I believe).


Our current ELOG version is "ELOG V3.1.4-4936b76".
Could you please have a look? 

Dear all,

Is it possible to have a dynamic "preset text" option?

I would like to switch the template file depending on the attribute value. (Of course this attribute values will be a fixed list of options, not extandable). 

I see there one difficulty, that: if user already started editing the text body, he could lose this data. But I think that this could be left on user responsibility to take care about it.

Another option could be to always insert the template text on the very beginning of the text body.

Is this feature implemented, or maybe someone have done it by changing the server code?

Cheers

I "upgraded" from v2.6.? to v2.7.3.  By "upgrade", I mean "copy all files to a different computer, then run the installer".  e-mail messages received from my v2.6 instance look nice.  The messages look like HTML tables with blue and green coloring.  My v2.7 instance appears to send plain text.  But, when I forward the v2.7 message, the nice HTML tables appear again.  Is there an e-mail formatting setting that I need to change?

I am using eLog ELOG V2.6.1-1681 which has 7 log books under 8 categories. Out of 7 log books, 2 are daily used. It happened that two weeks back. I modified information on two log books which were not used for quite longtime. Hence using CONFIG, I updated these log books, changing text etc. After that eLog in general started giving error. Any time when we click SUBMIT button in any log book, eLog shows page not found. That submit crashes eLog and as a result elogd service stops. Restarting elogd service, eLog operation comes back and the log which I submitted was actualy saved. Difficulty is that this problem is happening with every single submit action. 

I searched forum and learnt that upgrading eLog to newest version 2.7.8 will solve this problem. Upgrade created more problems, I was not able to open any log, authentication was not accepted. I restored that backup and went back to previous version. eLog started working but with submit error.

If any one can help me in fixing this problem
