LightNEasy Custom Title and Keywords Posted at 15/12/10 - 05:12 PM
You only need to edit admin.php, lightneasy.php and common.php pages, then add two fields to the end of {your database name}_paginas table. For the fields, I called them title and keywords, and used the same formatting as with _paginas description field (text).
All of my code edits are prefaced with // JSS and I've kept the original unedited code just below each of my edits (prefaced with //).
You can find my edited below:
It's a pretty good feature to have, and I hope you find it useful.
News feed:
My PC is a Dell Optiplex GX280 running Windows XP
Pro SP3. Here is my standard recording screen for the TP-Link Surveillance Software (auto-runs
on boot without password):

You can see that each of the four cameras is working and the motion detection / recording scheme seems to be working, as well.
So, I click on "Playback," and see the following screen.

I then click on "Open Record," to get the following pop-up screen:

But none of the buttons seem to do anything (see below). I can change the Start and End dates, but they have no effect and alway reset back to today's date. It's as if the system is not aware of any days prior to today having been recorded.

I get the same result (basically) if I go back to Settings and switch the view to "List Control":

The view is slightly different, but only today's date shows up under Record Date and none of the other buttons have any effect:

If I look at the destination folder under the Windows File Manager, I can see that folders for loads of previous days are present. Also, the FileRecord and SystemLog databases are fairly large.

Looking inside a particular date's folder, I see many DAT files. I am assuming that the DAT files are some sort of proprietary video recording file, but haven't found a way to view them.

Just for clarity, here is the Settings>General view:

Here is the Settings>Camera view for CAM01:

Here is the Settings>User Account view:

Here is the Settings>Monitor Display view:

And here is the Schedule Configuration view:

Bottom line... I can't get to previous days' recordings or find any record of them in the system. I also can't play what I believe to be previous days recordings outside the system, due to the proprietary DAT format. I am really stuck.

Four Changes Allow LightNEasy To Have Page-specific Titles and Keywords
Here is a way to edit the title and keywords on each page using the existing add/edit page interface (works just like description). I used advice from several posts and traced references all over creation (:D) on database version 3.2.You only need to edit admin.php, lightneasy.php and common.php pages, then add two fields to the end of {your database name}_paginas table.
