I have been importing data from a CSV file into elog which has worked.

However I'd like to import data from the CSV file, directly to the 'text' 
field, rather than just to one an attribute fields. Is it possible to do 
this?

Hi there,

we extensively use Logbuch as a change documentation platform.

E-Mail notifications for new entries are very important for us.

Since we store sensible data in our logbooks the server is protected by a firewall.

After the firewall was activated the HTML mails are not rendered by the Outlook Mail clients we use - when they are located in an "external" net behind the firewall. I assume that's because of the css stylesheet which is linked in the source code of the HTML mail.

Is there any chance to include the CSS information in the HTML code? Otherwise we would need to make the CSS accessable from anywhere which requires in turn that the path of the CSS file can be customized.

Any idea how to solved this issue?

Best regards,

daniel

I wanted to change some CKeditor settings so tried modifying elog/scripts/ckeditor to no avail.

I wiped elog/scripts/ and dropped a fresh download of CKeditor4, with only the basic extensions. But when I open the elog it still shows the full toolbar, with elog default style and with all extensions operational.

If I leave elog/scripts empty, I get "CKeditor NOT detected" when starting elogd and the HTML option is empty and shows nothing, all as expected.

Does anyone understand this? Is there some CKeditor configuration file elog is defering to that I've overlooked? I have tried system wide seaches just in case.

I just upgraded to 3.1.0 after many years using 2.9.2. Our eLogs are absolutely crucial for the operation of our accelerators, so first of all I'd like to say: thanks a lot for everything you've done! It's a rock-solid application that works really well.

The issue I'm having is a minor one. Some of our users are using Internet Explorer 11, which has a Compatibility Mode option that is enabled by default for intranet sites (of which our eLog is one). This mode emulates IE7, and this causes the CKEditor rich text box to fail to load. I can tell our users to disable the CM setting on their browsers, but it may be that a simple server-side fix is possible as well.

It would be nice if the eLog pages could have a <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> tag, so that it displays nicely on smaller screens. I've been adding this myself in some Javascript code (see elogHelper.js on the above-linked website), but it doesn't appear on every page (the logbook selection page, for instance). I also made some modifications to the CSS so that the list display collapses down when the browser window is very narrow.

The new autosave functionality is really good. I hacked something together to do this for our log a while ago, but it's nice that it's inbuilt now.

Thanks again!

Hello Sir,

        I'v been a long time user fo Elog for about 14 years.  We use it for indexing our Zoning Board of Adjustment Meeting Minutes for Decision on Properties within the Town of Hampton.  Is it possibel to by-pass the SMTP mailer for building logins and password changes.   We are a small network where we deal wiht the customer face to face in reseting password and builing new users.  Having the user reset them selves doesn't happen and normally we just take a ticket and do the task for them. 

We are building a new user and take we have not done in 10 years.  In those ten years the decsion was made to The Town onto Office 365 E3 GCC  and remove the ole mail server.  Now I'm finding impossible to build a new user or reset a password without SMTP support.

Thank you in advance.

Hello everybody,

we had to setup a new server for our elog some time ago because the old one crashed. We are now running version ELOG V3.1.1-0767eb0.

In the previous installation we had these nice buttons for file upload, time stamp and equation editor, which are also available here in the online version.

I already found that in the installation directory ("/usr/local/elog/") there exists a directory "scripts" containing a file "ckeditor-config.js", which also contains the lines:
"config.extraPlugins = 'timestamp,dndfiles,eqneditor,fileupload';" and "{ name: 'insert', items: [ 'Image', 'Table', 'HorizontalRule', 'Smiley', 'SpecialChar', 'PageBreak', 'FileUpload', 'Timestamp', 'EqnEditor' ] },"

These plugins seem to be available in the subdirectory "scripts/ckeditor/plugins/". But why are they not loaded? Is it just a version issue? Or something else?

It would be nice to get a hint.

Best regards,

Roland
