Just launched a new group with just shy of 300 members and it went smoothly (thanks Mark, Shal and groups.io; I'm well along in my yahoo recovery program already!).
With apologies yet again for posing a query that may be answerable somewhere, I spent some time doing a few searches her on the GMF and the Wikis but didn't find what I'm looking for.
What are any best practices on member real-name maintenance?
More specifically, I realize it's probably an individual group decision as to whether to allow aliases, anonymous posters, initials or just first names, etc. ?But, in our case, we want full and real names to appear with every post made. My question is how best to use the groups.io platform to ensure that?
Both user name and display name are controllable by the member so no way (unless I'm wrong/unaware) for me, as an owner, to force one of those to be the real name. I thought maybe the Database functionality might be the way to go but the wiki didn't include that. Maybe there's a setting of some kind that I can override (with username or display name) to ensure every member has their real first and last names visible? ?Or, is there no technical way to ensure this so just have to manage it by a rule requiring members to sign any post with first and last name? ?Did that on a yahoo group.
Thank you!
