Hi,

In our setup we have multiple logbooks. I want a convenient way to search all logbooks for an attribute (in our case with the name Sample-ID) by just clicking it in the list display of any logbook.Therefore, in the [global] section I put "List Change Sample-ID = <a href="https://ourelog.com/$logbook/?all=1&Sample-ID=$Sample-ID"</a>. This transforms the attribute in list display into a hyperlink to the search results page. So far this works fine. In the results page, of course the option also applies, meaning the attribute is replaced by the link as well. But here something odd happens and the replacement does not work. The intended behavior is to replace $logbook in the link with the name of the logbook. Sometimes, however, the replacement yields something like "logbook" (missing $ and thus not replacing anything) or even weirder something like "60logbook". I have no idea what causes this.

#include /elog-archive/additional.config

Hi,

I would like to turn off the display of attachements when editing an entry in some of our logbooks that contains big file. 
So I did set the flag "preview attachements"  to 0. It seems to work fine on text file attachment but 
the  thumbnails for PDF and images (very nice feature by the way!...) are still there...

How can I avoid displaying the thumbnails in the edit mode? This  is very important when the attached file is big  because
it almost makes it impossible to edit..

Thanks for your feedback!

Hello,

we have been using elog 2.7.1 as a logbook to signal problems and so on in our Engine Room Simulator for a couple of months now. Since this is exactly what we're looking for, I've installed the latest release in our sailing simulator as well. On this occasion I thought about updating the logbook in our engine room simulator as well. Unfortunately I cannot do that, because I get the error "elogd.exe is not a valid Win32 application" with every version of elog higher than 2.9.2 (so every version 3.x.x). The difference between our two simulators is that the elog package for the sailing simulator is installed on a Windows Vista machine, while the version for the engine room simulator is installed on a Windows 2003 Server.

Question: can I get/find/compile the latest version as a Win32 application and if yes: how or where?

Thanks,

Jean Pierre

From Version 2.2.5 on, the configuration file entries

User = ...
Group = ...

have been changed to

Usr = ...
Grp = ...

in order not to conflict with the new "Group = ..." option which is used by 
hierarchical logbooks.

Hello,

Is there a possibility to use like the time stamp a user stamp: by clicking the button in the main text entry it adds the username, just like the time stamp button does: Tue Apr 12 08:58:46 2022 ?

I searched but I'm not sure how this would be correctly named.

Thanks,

Have a working copy of 1.35 running on NT4 server.
Went to upgrade to latest version.
Stopped service, installed the 2.52 version, restarted service and when 
trying to connect get nothing but server not found, dns errors, etc.
Copy back the 1.35 elogd.exe and everything is fine - I can connect and add 
entries to log.
Copy 2.52 elogd.exe and nothing.

So being the bright boy, I unistalled E-log, went through the registry and 
yanked everything out that referenced ELOGD, rebooted, installed 2.52, made 
the necessary registry changes, started service and nothing. 

Stopped service and copied 1.35 Elogd.exe back into folder, started service, 
and everything works.

Any ideas on why 1.35 works like a charm but 2.52 won't? I've tried stepping 
back to 2.10 version before giving up.

This is a server that is patched to latest and runs quite well with 1.35.
