Originally, all information about our machines was stored in a spreadsheet with one sheet for the hardware of the machines and one for the software. By now, I've sucessfully moved the software part to an elog logbook and am now looking at transferring the hardware part as well.

As both lists are machine-name based, one of the options would be to merge both lists, as this would place all machine-related info into one logbook. The downside of this is that I get so many columns in list view that the result is quite unwieldy. Hence, I would like to hide some columns - ideally creating a "hardware view" and a "software view".

From the documentation, the only option I could find that seemed suitable was "List conditions". Unfortunately, I do not quite understand from the manual how this is supposed to work, so I'm quite possibly doing something wrong. I've tried this:

; General settings
List conditions = 1

; Attributes
Attributes = Type, Created, StatusA, StatusB, Archived

; Options & Tooltips
Options Type = Type1{10}, Type2{11}

; Conditionals
{10}List display = Edit, Type, Created, Status
{11}List display = Edit, Type, Created, StatusA, StatusB, Archived

but no matter how I set "Type", it does not seem to have any effect on the List display. One thing I don't understand for example is how does elog decide in List view which entry sets the condition? If all entries are set to the same value (in this example e.g. "Type1")? The first entry? Or am I missing something altogether?

Also, if there are alternative ways how I could accomplish my goal, I'd also be most grateful for suggestions.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

It seems when I use "reply" with an attachments, the original attachments of
the message are removed.

I use elog-2.3.5

Hi, 

I was just searching your online discussion forum for entries with the 
word 'password' in the subject. I noticed that the 'Full' option in 
the 'full/summary/threaded' line displays the results of all entries in the 
logbook, and not only the entries with the word 'password' in the subject.

I think there is an error in the URL, because when looking for the word 
password in the subject, the URL for the 'Full' option is:
http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/page1?mode=full&reve&npp=8&Subject=password

If I change the word 'reve' in this URL to 'reversed=1', the results are 
correct

Hello,

one question regard Options: For e. g. I am using the following command: Options Categories = NT, 2000, XP, Linux
Now I would like to delete the entry NT. But that would cause, that NT is no longer available in the search function. So I wonder if there is a way to deactivate an attribute?

Thanks!

Uwe

I am running into problems when I try and use the

Use Email From = $user_email 

setting in my individual logbook configs. I had to set this field as I set a 

Use Email From = real_email_address 

in my global config so that the email would be sent out by the
CommunigatePro mail server.

When I made those changes though the mail was not sent and I got the
following errors in the elog log:

It looks like Communigate Pro doesn't like what is being put in the From as
it complains about the syntax. 

I tried the same elog.conf file on my laptop which uses a qmail server as
its SMTP and the mail was sent ok but I got mailto appearing in the from
header. I saw that elog:333 reported a similar problem but this was listed
as fixed. This is the headers from a message sent by the qmail server:
