Are you sure you're not looking at the Pending Approval list?? That's the default Member page view when there are any pending.

Groups.io Digests and Thunderbird

 

Hi,
? This falls in the arena of the "minor irritations".? It's easy
enough to deal with (one click) ... but "it shouldn't be?
happening" ...

? I use Thunderbird for my email client.? When I get a
groups.io digest and do a Reply (or New Topic) it
creates a new window and I compose my reply and
send it and it works just fine.
? However ... it also spawns an unused new window
that I have to click on to close it.? I am using the
very latest Tbird and keep it up to date.

? 1) Does this happen with any other email clients?
? 2) Is there something I can do to avoid this?
? ===> Please - no "speculations" about this.? If you
? ? ? ? ? ?haven't seen the problem your self don't
? ? ? ? ? ?"guess" about the answer.? Thanks.

? Guys - this is a nit and I can easily continue to
do what I'm dong now (click on the X to close the
unwanted window).

re changing members address

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

One of my members has emailed me asking if I could change the address with which he joined the group.
Is that possible for me to do, or does he have to do it himself? If so, how?
?
I have to say how well my new group is running.. it is such a pleasure to get mail practically instantly, and how quickly I can upload files without error messages.
?
Cheers

Address to contact group moderators #moderation #subgroups

 

I am going to create a private subgroup for moderators of main group.
Should members of main group need to contact moderators, how could they do?
Is there a way to set up a specific address to be used by all moderators?

Re: Group . IO front page

 

Yes, I meant to correct that.? If the photo is smaller, it just puts it in the center.? If it's larger, it scales it down until the height and width fit within 900x300.? On one of my groups, I used an editor to put 2 photos side-by-side so it covered more area, but it's still only 640x240, so some extra white space on either side.

Duane


Re: Group . IO front page

 

Thank you, Duane.
So the photo chosen for the cover must be equal or larger than 900 x 300.
The one I originally chose was smaller and the system did not scale it, it simply placed the photo in the centre, leaving two blank spaces on each side.

Re: Explain Special Notice?

 

Oh how very true. I've spent the last month transitioning a group (online chapter of a national organization) out of Yahoo - in the middle of all of the current Yahoo mess. I wasn't involved when they established on Yahoo, offered to help get them to Groups.io late last fall when they realized that things were really going badder (yes, I just invented that word)...? right now it's not a question of being nuts, but by how many pounds worth :>)

Re: Wiki

 

Sharon,

There is a button that drops down a menu of pages but we would have
list of 100+ pages in a list with no grouping.
Groups.io's wiki is lacking in organizational features.

The default wiki home page is an index of the pages, essentially duplicating what's in the Pages menu. But you can, as I did for GMF, replace that index page with a custom home page that creates the kind of organization you want to have. Not very convenient to maintain though, as it is all built with hand-crafted text, formatting, and links.

Are there instructions anywhere?
There's our beginnings of a guide in GMF's wiki. Thanks to JMichaelTX for getting it started. Anyone got the gumption to help fill in more details?
/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Wiki-Guide-for-Users-and-Editors

The formatting toolbar for Wiki pages is very similar to the message formatting toolbar, but not exactly the same. One interesting difference is that in wiki the Enter key is a paragraph break, Shift+Enter a line break. Message formatting is the opposite.
/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Message-composition-tips-and-tricks

Is it true that only the images in the wiki count toward the storage
limit?
That's what the man says.

Re: Photo Album Ownership

 

Don,

I'm not sure what Mark could do about this. Do you?
I'm not sure either.

But I think his copy mechanism normally obtains the author information for each item. In the case of photos that would identify the member who uploaded them. If he still has that information it is possible he could retroactively apply it to the photos that were copied.

Or maybe he could re-run the Photos copy, assuming he found and fixed whatever problem caused them not to have their original owner info copied into your Groups.io group.
