seeing past members (premium groups)
|
Mark announced awhile back that he would include a feature that allows premium groups to maintain/access member pages for past members. Instead, he seems to have created access to a list of email addresses of past members. There's still no way to see any of the members' activities, let alone their member pages. The list entries are not clickable, and you still have to search (often vainly) through the activity history to find whatever the member did. Even their +owner messages are gone: I found an entry in the group activity, by searching explicitly for +owner messages, a +owner message from a past member. The message looked clickable, and i thought that would be a way in, but clicking on it just took me back to the group home page. These members seem completely inaccessible as before.
I voiced a mild query (complaint/suggestion) about this on beta a few weeks ago but heard nothing back from Mark. Does anyone know the status of this? Is it still on trello, or does Mark consider the "past members" list (which is virtually useless) the implementation of it?
I remember that before Mark agreed to add the feature (in the "old days," he was going to do it for all groups, not just premium), the idea was to be able to more easily access the activities of past members, because the member page goes away. Someone at the time (this was in beta), possibly Mark, said it was easy to find their activities anyway by doing some search or other. That has never worked for me, because a search by email address on the group activity log fails. It just returns the entire activity log. So if this feature is no longer in the works, or if (god forbid) Mark considers it "done" by virtue of the "past members" list, does anyone know how to find all activity of a past member?
