Thanks, Linda. That worked. I've been managing about 12 Yahoo groups for my and we'd like to move to groups.io. Just learning the ropes now. Tony [excess quote trimmed by moderator] |

Re: How do you add a tab on the left sidebar
Linda, Shal, how did you add the tab on the left that says guidelines? You create a Group Guidelines type of Member Notice. Settings > Member Notices > New Notice Select Group Guidelines as the Notice Type Shal -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

Subject in subject line and hashtag...
#hashtags
We're just finishing up customizing our site before info is transferred over from Yahoo Groups.
Question:? When creating a new message (New Topic), the member is presented with a template... there is a blank line for the subject, and under that there is a line to select tags. With a few folks playing with the site, I'm finding that: 1. They click on the add tag line first, selecting the tag, and forget about adding a subject line (I'm seeing this happen frequently); then when the message is posted, all you see is the hashtag, no subject--not good :( or 2. They click on the add tag line first, selecting the tag; then they go up and add a subject, not realizing that when they send the message the subject line will show the hashtag first, and the subject second Anyway to add some discipline here (requiring a subject and that it be entered first)???? Hoping above makes sense... |

This is probably something that should be discussed on the Beta group.? The Beta group is where suggestions to be added to Groups.io is discussed.? That way through the Beta group, Mark would see this discussion.? The Group Managers Forum is unmoderated and Mark would not see this here. ?

Has there been any discussion about allowing Owners, Moderators to have FTP interaction with Files and/or Photos??
I see there have been requests for bulk download and other operations such as moving files. The current UI for uploads sucks when the number of files is large because the UI generates a thumbnail for each file and you cannot start the upload process until it is finished. Both of those issues could become non-issues if there were FTP access to those areas. It's of primary interest to group founders and organisers while subscribers would have little or no direct interest. While the best solution is to support the needs in the Groups.io user interface, this may be a case where the cost of development is way more than that of the workaround and is of direct benefit to few. Of course, one would think the subscribers will benefit from a better organised group site if the organisers have better tools. |

Re: How do I contact a member of my group?
Marina,
I wanted to contact off list a member of my group. As a moderator or owner of the group you can send a message to the member through the Members list. o? Find the member(s) in the list o? Click the checkbox on the (each) member's row o? In the Actions menu, select Send Message I have tried to find him in the Members List, putting his name in the Search box, but the search strangely gave no result, although he is obviously a member of the group. That is strange. All I can think of is that you typo'd the name, or accidentally included a space character or something else before or after the name in the search box.* Search in the Members list does partial matches, so you might try typing part of the name to make it easier. Shal* That's probably a bug report: search should ignore leading/trailing spaces I think. -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

Re: Migration questions
This may have been changed, but it worked for me awhile back.? Make sure you enter the URL for the group home page while logged out, not the messages page.

Re: Calendar notices ¨Ca further question . . .
You could edit the #cal-notice hashtag and have it send as special.? If it hasn't been used, it might not exist, but you could create it.

Re: Calendar notices ¨Ca further question . . .
So Shal,
Is there any way (or setting) to use to send a Calendar Notice like a Special Notice similar to what was available with Y!Groups (when sending a message or making a reply)? Those messages went to all members I understand whether they are No Email or not. TIA Paul M. Owner/Moderator CostaRicaLiving == |
