Hello,

Apologies if this has been discussed before.. I am a new group user, and owner of a new group and subgroups at ..

I am a former librarian (retired) and former Webmaster, among other jobs/gigs.

Many groups exist for our profession (libraries), and many I use on Google+ and Facebook have post link previews. I've enclosed two (2) screenshots to show what I am talking about.
As you can see, the post goes online (Web/Internet), and includes a post preview image, link, and often the headline of the post link article/item.
When you post to Twitter, a platform, the same thing occurs.


Since groups.io is both an email platform and it's Web-based, I wonder why that functionality couldn't be included here on groups.io.

Instead of using "new topic" and posting an email, there would be a link to post a "Web link with preview" or something, and then you'd see an interface for that. Posting would appear on the Web site for our groups, not an email.

To see the Web posts to our groups, members would visit the Web site for the groups, and click a link to see Web posts etc.
I wonder if anyone else is interested in this, or the groups.io team or developers.

Best,

Michael aka DrWeb

Michael,

Link previews has been suggested, but it didn't get much attention:
and seconded:


The original post (8607) is locked, but you could chime in on the "second" (15611) or start your own topic about it. Also, feel free to kick it around and refine it here before posting about it "officially" in beta.

link to post a "Web link with preview" or something, and then you'd
see an interface for that. Posting would appear on the Web site for
our groups, not an email.

That actually sounds like something else entirely. More like the Links section of a Yahoo Group, but with auto-generated previews.

I like better Maria's idea of having the "link with preview" being a tool of the message composition window and otherwise handled inline as normal message content. I'd support having that tool in Wiki page composition as well.

Non news about Mark?

Beno?t,

Non news about Mark?

I'm not sure what you mean.

If you're talking about Mark Fletcher (Groups.io developer) he is back from vacation but he doesn't read GMF so he wouldn't even know this question has been raised.

I've not heard anything about it since your post in beta:

Hi all
when I post a link to a groups.io wiki page on FB, the preview is old and does not reflect current content. ?Is there a way to edit the preview on groups io? ?when I have tried to edit from facebook, it doesn't allow it. I can only delete the preview, but not customize the image or text. ?Thanks for any suggestions.
