How are Custom Logs Created?

Anybody with a datablogging account can create their own custom log type. It's a simple matter of defining the data fields by choosing from dropdowns, checkboxes, input boxes and other web form controls. Once a log type is defined, log entries can be created. Here's a how it works:


Step 1:
From any log entry screen a single click toggles the screen to Customize Mode where you can begin adding, moving or custimizing the log's data fields. Any user can do this to any log.
