Cancel button missing when editing an entry, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Wed Nov 16 13:48:33 2016
|
If I edit an old entry, and do some mistake while editing, then there is currently no way to savely discard the changes.
The problem is that the entry will become a draft: if I close the window without saving, then the whole entry is gone: it will be converted into a draft entry. But the draft does contain my changes, it is not the originally saved entry!
The draft mechanism should keep a copy of the entry before I opened it in edit mode, and allow to go back to that copy. The edit form has currently the buttons "Submit", "Save", "Preview" and "Delete"; it should have in addition the button "Cancel", that just closes the edit window without saving the entry and even deleting the draft that was saved while the entry was modified. This should bring you back to the previous list view.
Is anyone out there in favour of this change? |
Can't use the command-line client, posted by Pieter Edelman on Wed Mar 16 20:04:32 2005

Hi all,
I'm trying to use the command-line client from linux, but I can't make it
work and that's driving me nuts...
What I want is to reply to a selected message in the logbook, but I
stumble onto two problems:
- There is a read password ("Read Password=..." entry in elogd.cfg)on
the logbook which I cannot bypass from the client. Specifying the switch
-u "" password on the command line has no effect, and neither does
-w password. The error message I get is included at the bottom of this message. If I disable the
read password, I get past the authentication.
- There is a required attribute called "Publiek", and it's defined as
MOptions. Whenever I try to upload, I keep getting the message that it misses this attribute. I
tried the switch -a Publiek=Anders, -a "Publiek=Anders", -a
Publiek_0=Anders, -a "Publiek_0=Anders" -a "Publiek_1=Onbekend,
-a Publiek=1 on the beginning, end, and middle of the command, but
the results are the same. Both "Anders" and "Onbekend" are in the MOptions
list (including capitals).
For completeness, here's (one variety) of my command line:
elog -a "Publiek=1" -h localhost -p 8181 -l Artikelen -v -r 80
The obvious question is if anybody knows what I'm doing wrong. Any help
is greatly appreciated.
Pieter

Can't subscribe email to logbooks in different top groups, posted by Ben Loer on Thu Apr 11 20:31:55 2019
|
We're running elogd behind an apache proxy server, with Authentication = Webserver. We have top groups configured, but a single shared password file.
If a user is looking at a particular logbook and goes to the Config link, they are presented with a list of checkboxes for email subscription to logbooks in that top group. Clicking "Save" will remove all email subscriptions from all other top groups.
Is there a workaround to this issue?
EDIT: Manually adding an entry for different logbooks in the password file gets clobbered the next time the user logs in. |
Can't set Author attribute properly in reply?, posted by Chris Green on Mon Jul 25 23:39:16 2005
|
Hi,
I have two problems:
1) With the configuration below, I can't set the Author attribute to be the author of the reply. As written, it gives the Author field as blank. If the Remove on Reply line is removed, it is set to the parent's author. What am I doing wrong?
2) With the Page Title line set as shown, $logbook gets expanded as "Charged+Current+Pi+Plus". If the line is left blank, the correct "Charged Current Pi Plus" gets put in the title line.
Thanks for any help,
Chris.

Can the elog client submit an entry with a html body?, posted by Kristinn B. Gylfason on Tue Nov 2 02:51:09 2004
|
I'm running a Debian package of elog with verision number 2.5.4+r1480-1.
The revision of the elog client in this package is 1.21.
I'm using the elog client to send entries generated by a script to my
logbook. I want to format the body text of the entry using HTML, to include
links and images. When I submit the entry with the elog client it is
submited as text and not HTML.
The man page for the elog client does not mention any commandline options to
specify the formating of the entry and I have not found any info in this
forum on the issue.
Is it possible to submit an entry with a html body using the elog client? |

Can other pages hide behind elog user authentication?, posted by Jason St. John on Sat Apr 17 01:06:58 2010
|
Hello,
The elog security suits me just fine: the content is not available unless users have logged in, and as administrator I have complete control over who that is and what their privileges are. I can easily share somewhat sensitive notes, plots, and findings without making them completely open to the world.
I have a project which generates html pages, which I'm also not really supposed to make public to the world. I'd rather not resort to attaching them to elog entries.
Could the elog security be extended to control access to other files I put on the server?
Thanks,
-jmsj |
