Had a quick question about the 'notes' component
http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Ad ... nt/details
Is it possible to have a 'clickable' url in the notes section or is it strictly text? Also I is possible to put a short url there?

I have it installed on a couple servers and just tested for you.
Short Answer, Nope.
Longer answer, it seems to be plain text only. I even tried putting in the html code for a link and when I save the note it stripped the html from it.
Since it is "owned" by egalstad I guess Nagios folks can supply more information

Thanks! The notes section is a very valuable tool for the NOC where I work, I expect us to climb to over 20k services by years end. Pretty important for us to have 1 note per service kind of setup. thanks for you help!

Yeah I found the same, tried using tags, and a normal address, I think one of the issues is that the notes you write there can be constantly changed on the fly with the text box. I can put a feature request in for you if you like?

I don't believe you can use URL with the Object Notes Component as the notes are stored in postgres database...
Code: Select all
echo 'select * from xi_options;' | psql nagiosxi nagiosxi | grep objectnotes

That would rock! Short URL would be ideal!
