Adding Members

 

I have an Old E-Mail group that worked great. But the number of people in it has gotten to be quite large, so, I made a Groups.io group for the group to communicate through instead.

75% of the group have joined the IO group but a few stragglers are still only on the E-Mail group.

as a group owner/manager can I manually add them to the io group somehow?

Re: Subgroup with limited privacy #subgroups #bug #howto

 

BB,

In fact, I went back to take a screenshot of the other options and bam
the other subgroups are down to two options as well.

There used to be several.
The Visibility control moves only in one direction: stricter. When you tighten it up you can't loosen it again.

There were SIX total options if I remember.
Five:

o Group listed in parent group, publicly viewable messages
o Group listed in parent group, messages viewable by parent group members
o Group listed in parent group, messages viewable by subgroup members only
o Group not listed in parent group, messages viewable by subgroup members only
o Group not listed in parent group, publicly viewable messages

I feel like I changed some setting in the parent group? WHAT did I do?
I don't think changes to the primary group's Visibility affects the subgroup Visibility settings. At least it doesn't seem to have in my test group. But that change (of the primary to members-only message view) happened quite a while ago. I'd have to create another test group to try it again.

Subgroup with limited privacy #subgroups #bug #howto

 

hello Groups.io forum,

Tonight I was plugging along starting some new subgroups for my school. When I noticed my newest only has TWO privacy settings, viewable to group (messages and all) or not viewable. In fact, I went back to take a screenshot of the other options and bam the other subgroups are down to two options as well.

There used to be several. viewable subgroup & messages, Viewable subgroup but messages only viewable to subgroups members, Not viewable subgroup, etc. There were SIX total options if I remember. I feel like I changed some setting in the parent group??WHAT did I do?

Re: My account gets bounced about...

 

Al,

Seems like every week or two, my subscribed address: ...
Gets bounced.
Assuming you mean that your address gets placed on Bouncing status then go to your Account and have a look at the Recent Bounces page. That should tell you what your email service told Groups.io when it rejected ("bounced") messages from Groups.io.

You can also get that information from the Email Delivery History tab of your Subscription page at any Groups.io group.

I just don¡¯t understand why periodically this keeps happening
That would depend on what reason your email service gave. You might have to ask their customer support to explain the error code and message, and how to avoid having it happen again.

Seems like every week or two, my subscribed address:

Gets bounced. I then respond to the email I receive and all is ok until next time. What is causing this? I understand the whole bouncing concept so don¡¯t need explanations on that. I just don¡¯t understand why periodically this keeps happening

Re: Possible "Missing Activity"

 

Duane; many thanks for the clarification. When I spotted this anomaly yesterday I didn't see it as being any sort of show - stopper, just a bit of a puzzle. I also suspect that some member actions carried out by email may also not be logged, but at the moment lack definitive evidence either way.

I might make further enquiries to see if any change in what is logged is planned in the foreseeable future, and might ask if resending Pending Membership messages could be flagged on the "pending subscriptions" page, rather than having to go hunting for them.

Re: photos are loading but not displaying properly

 

LeeAnne,

A member recently posted some photos and they are not displaying
properly:
...
From your screen shots I'd guess that the photos were in a format that Groups.io's image resizing function couldn't handle.

It has been discovered that if you click on the broken photo icon
thingy in top left corner it will open the photo.
That's odd. I've not seen that behavior. Does the photo open in the page as it normally should have (with the info and buttons below) or is the browser opening the photo file as a page? Maybe that doesn't matter since it shouldn't happen in either case.

Any ideas ... what can be done about it?
Maybe have the member convert the images to a standard format and re-upload. That may depend on the origin of the photos (scanner, camera, other) and what software may have been used to process them before uploading.

Or maybe report them to [email protected] to see if whatever happened to them can be fixed.

Is it possible to get a twitter feed as an integration?

 

I was wondering if anyone has successfully managed to get a twitter feed as an integration?? I know that some sites will take a twitter feed and give it to you as RSS and that this site allows RSS.

Just wondering if anyone has done it and how.

Thanks


Re: Groups.io site updates #changelog

 

Gerald,

Perhaps I am still not understanding which dialog box is being
referred to. I am still getting the same results for my test. My test
was: No members selected, click on "Actions" button, list of options
comes up - I select "Send message", the message box comes up with "To:
0 members".
Interesting, I hadn't tried that one. Perhaps it wasn't affected because it opens a new page rather than just a pop-up dialog.

Now my opinion is even stronger that the behavior is quirky rather than clear.

photos are loading but not displaying properly

 

Hi All,
Hoping there is a quick fix for this.? A member recently posted some photos and they are not displaying properly:


When the link to the photo is clicked on this is what is displayed:


It has been discovered that if you click on the broken photo icon thingy in top left corner it will open the photo.
Any ideas why this is occurring and/or what can be done about it?
