What Ken notes is something a lot of groups.io users (and users of mobile phones) apparently don't understand. If an image is imbedded in a message, it will be compressed. The only way to send an image and be certain it's not going to be altered by compression, is to make the file a separate attachment. It also amazes me how many mobile phone users don't understand this.

Re: Owner can¡¯t reply
I¡¯ve also had a person getting confused because multiple browsers were involved, and the different browsers had different logins. He was using a third browser on his phone with yet another browser.
?
The mobile apps are pretty danged good. Groups.io is happiest with but a single login across many devices & browsers. The group is selected via a drop-down.
?
cheers,

There is something about the way I am signed in to my group account on the iphone that reveals only owner/mod options when I want to reply to a message in my group. From the website I can get what I need¡ªreply ?to sender The only way I can think of that this could possibly happen is if you've managed to log yourself in with different email addresses on the two devices.
?
From your web browser, pull down the menu at upper right that shows your name (see screenshot). The email address you're logged in under is displayed. Make sure you're logged in using that same email address on your phone. If not, click the "log out" link (on your phone) and try again.

Re: Owner can¡¯t reply
Did you see the email from Bruce April 7 - /g/GroupManagersForum/message/49135

Two possibilities:
-- Your account is bouncing and you haven't unbounced it yet. -- You're in a subgroup of a group you own but haven't made yourself a member [of the subgroup] yet. ?

An invitation was sent, and shows up in the activity log, but does not show up in the invitations sent. When trying to sort invitations sent, it does not seem to be sorting them properly. How many invitations have you sent recently? Did you make more than 20 at one time? Did you type them in or did you send them as a plain text file?
?
Note that invites expire but can be re-sent.

Has the one that shows up in Activity accepted the invitation? Are they in the Admin, Members list?

Re: Opting OUT of a new Subgroup - can it be done?
Thanks, Marilyn. This makes sense. I was clearly overthinking the entire situation.? Between you and Cristos, I think it¡¯ll work.? On Mon, Apr 7, 2025 at 04:39 Marilyn Owen via <mlowen24=[email protected]> wrote: One of my groups does this all the time. The message sent to the main group announcing the subgroup contains a link to the subgroup where all they have to do is click on Join This Group. I am not sure how the link is set up, but I think it is just to the home page of the subgroup. |

I tidy up my accepted members in the Invite, Sent Invitations list. Confusingly, Cancel / Remove Invite in the Actions menu doesn't take away membership from those who have accepted the invitation. Just clears them out of the Sent Invitations list. Of course, they will be in the Members list.

Re: Fw: I have been asked to sign in but don¡¯t remember my password
As an owner of a community group, ?I get that question a LOT and see members trying to reapply. By adding 2 ?pre-formatted additions to our site, have saved numerous typing, cut and pasting steps and time.
?
?
Tip 1 ? ? Under Admin settings, ? message formatting , ?in footer, ?I customized it to include the following message with link. It appears at bottom of each daily summary.
?
Forget your password? . Can't access messages in morning summary? Go to /login
Use the send me email link option to regain access and/ or a new password. Sends a link to your email. ?
?
Tip 2 ? ? ?I have a pre-formatted message
Set it up under admin, ?settings, ?notices,
choose message type,?Message to member
?
By adding and storing a notice, I can use specific pre-formatted message with the same email login link.
I select the members name via Members
Select that notice message via Send Message at bottom of their page.
Pick the pre-formatted saved notice titled already a member. And send it.
?
Using those notices for those who are trying to reapply, ?who are already members.
Saves typing it out or cut and pasting numerous times.
