icon4.gif   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.

icon1.gif   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.

icon5.gif   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?
icon3.gif   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,

icon5.gif   Can a field value be calculated during display?, posted by Sridhar Anandakrishnan on Wed Apr 12 19:22:34 2006 
I have a logbook which is a Calendar/Appointment book with Attributes: "Appointment DateTime", Place, etc.

I would like another Attribute called "When" whose value is calculated from Today's Date - Appointment date (so for example I could display today's appointments in red...). This calculation has to take place each time the logbook is displayed...

Possible? Useful?

Thanks,
Sridhar.
