| Hi,
My current logging option is set to log automatically to this file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MUSHclient\logs\%N_%Y-%m-%d.html
However, all it does is log to the same file it created a week ago, everyday. It doesn't create a new one each day.
Am I missing something here? How can I fix this?
Thank you very much,

| The logging option you mention controls the filename, when the log file is opened. However if it stays open for a week, then everything is appended to the same file.
What you need to do is have a timer that runs at 00:01 a.m., which closes the current log file and opens a new one.
From memory, if you open a log file with an empty filename (with OpenLog) it uses the parameters in your logging configuration.
So make a timer, which run at just after midnight, and sends to script, which does something along the lines of:

| | Thank you, but this doesn't apply the headers (preambles) to the logs. They all lack line breaks and proper formatting (HTML). Am I missing a command? | | Top |

| CloseLog help mentions that it will append the postamble to the file, and that "this is inconsistent with what OpenLog does." So no, you're not missing anything.
What about using WriteLog() combined with GetInfo(11) immediately after calling OpenLog? | | Top |
