Groups.io site updates #changelog


 

Hi all,

This week's change log:
/g/beta/message/13653

Feel free to reply to this topic if you'd like to comment on the changes. Or better yet, if you expect a lot of discussion start a new topic (or rejoin an existing one) about a specific change.


  • INTERNAL: More work on integrating the TinyMCE editor.
This one's up first because I'm using it to compose this message. Which you'll notice is formatted, contrary to my usual practice of posting plain-text via email. Earlier in the week I posted So far I'm liking this new message editor about testing it. Please join in on that topic if you're testing it or curious about it.


  • INTERNAL: Reviewed ToS changes from Oracle. Almost ready.
A carry-over from last week. We'll have to see what Mark and Oracle come up with.


  • CHANGE: Changed price of premium group to $30/month. Also, new basic groups no longer have the event RSVP feature.
I used the one-month upgrade (rather than automatic continuation) to obtain Add Member capability for my PTA group last year. This was very convenient because we collect the vast majority of our members during school registration. I'll probably do likewise this year, but the increase does push it from being a no-brainer donation in kind on my part, into the consideration of "Hm, maybe I should ask the PTA to reimburse me" expense.


Comments about these others are also welcome:

  • INTERNAL: More work on the API and reviewing progress on the app.
  • CHANGE: Treat Trello descriptions as plain text, not Markdown.
  • CHANGE: Emailed login links are now valid for 60 minutes.
  • CHANGE: We no longer accept email from servers that do not have reverse DNS records.
  • BUGFIX: When sending a message to a member(s), use your sig if you've set one.
  • BUGFIX: Hashtags were sometimes not displayed when paging through the Topics list.
  • NEW: Delete Account button on the first account page, jumps to new FAQ item in Help.
  • INTERNAL: Changed some stats that we track.
Please call out any you find significant.
