 You've probably seen my other posts on this subject.

I want to be able to re-edit some entries but I need some way to know the dates entries were re-edited.

Am I just approaching this the wrong way? Should I disable re-editing of entries and use threads to follow changes by posting replies to an entry?

The only problem with that is that if I make a mistake I will have to submit a new entry to fix it. 

Please read the FAQ

 

Apart from logging when and who, is it also possible to somehow log WHAT has changed (like $attribute + $old_value was changed by $who at $date)

 No, this is not possible.

Password file = ./passwd
Self register = 1
Logfile = elogd.log
Logging level = 3
Login expiration = 24
Admin user = testuser Theme = default
Preset Author = $long_name
Attributes = Author, Subject

Required Attributes = Author, Subject
Page Title = ELOG - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Quick filter = Date, Subtext

Thanks for help, Brassmann

 I tried your configuration and it worked as expected. Maybe you have edited the wrong configuration file, not restarted the server, or have an old page in your browser cache.

It would be very cool to be able to select Full from the view menu and then scroll rapidly through all entries looking for that high res photo of a SQUID chip I took two months ago. Presently the photos are all full size so the Full view is slow to load and it takes a lot of scrolling to navigate. Can you implement thumbnails in Full view, and also in the single entry view? Clicking on the thumbnail should, of course, open the full size image.

For now, I'm just using the wysiwyg html entry format and dropping images into the entry, then right-clicking to set a small image size. Clicking on the image gives me a new window with the full size image, which works great.

I hope you don't mind the barrage of suggestions, and thanks again.

 

Thumbnail display in "full view" is implemented already. Let's take this entry: I insert a picture and scale it down via the "smaller" button:

Capture.png

Now if you display this forum in full view, the image is still shown as a thumbnail, which you are able to click in order to get the full resolution display. I don't know what is different in your case, maybe you are using an oder version of ELOG?

 

 Sorry for the delayed reply.

Ideally I'd like a config setting so that by default all graphics are presented at a fixed thumbnail size, so the users don't have to edit the image size every time they add one. Clicking on the thumbnail would open the image full size.

This would by default streamline loading and scanning through pages with many large images, whether in Full view of an entire logbook, or when viewing individual entries.

 

icon1.gif   Show/Hide links are displayed but don't work if Show attachments = 0, posted by Dennis Seitz on Mon Nov 10 19:40:43 2008 

If I add this statement to a logbook config file:

Show attachments = 0

When viewing and individual entry, attached images are not displayed, which is as intended, but the links Show/Hide and Show All/Hide All are still displayed although they do nothing when clicked except switch between Show and Hide. Clicking on an image opens it in a separate window.

Could you make show/hide and show/hide all work? This way, by default the images are not displayed, but the default could be overridden on a case by case basis as desired, and the images displayed inline in the same window with the entry. 

Thanks!

Very good idea! I changed that in ELOG V2.7.5-2139. The fix will be contained in the next release.

Have you tried Thumbnail size = xxx in your config file?

icon5.gif   Quick filter in this forum, how to do "Text" search?, posted by Niklas on Fri Nov 21 09:12:31 2008 

Hi,

 

In this forum there is a quickfilter for text search. How do I get that into my elog?

When I add:

Quick filter = Date, Type, Text

into config file. I get:

Error: Attribute "Text" for quick filter not found

 

How do I add the quick filter text search box?
