Re: #bug Export data email has non-usable URL #bug

 

Henning,


The zip file URL returned in the export data email message is not usable, at least if received via gmail. I had to decode the raw plain text version via the 'quoted-printable' translator.
?
I used this feature about a week ago and didn't have a problem, but I probably opened the message in Thunderbird, not Gmail's web UI. I'll go take a look at it after work today, but any additional detail you can provide may be helpful.

Note: GMF is a user-to-user forum, no one from Groups.io monitors messages here. If you wish to post a bug report to Groups.io you must use the [email protected] address.

So far none - I got the email that said "This is to notify you that your pending invitations to [group] have been approved and sent out" at 1:59 PM.

Have you checked your activity log to see which ones were sent?? It should only take a short time for them to go out.

Re: suddenly many yahoo.com members are bouncing, but not all of them

 

Anne,


As of today, I have 216 members soft bouncing, all of them with email addresses.

To borrow and misquote from Disney: ? Let 'em Go

Assuming that the Reason given is This mailbox is disabled (554.30) as mentioned in earlier posts in this topic, those addresses are most likely dead. It may be possible for the owner of such an email address to recover their account once Yahoo has disabled it; that would be the only circumstance under which the address would stop bouncing.

My guess is that most of these would be addresses transferred in from a Yahoo Group, and were probably abandoned (but not unsubscribed), possibly even before the transfer.

Re: suddenly many yahoo.com members are bouncing, but not all of them

 

As of today, I have 216 members soft bouncing, all of them with yahoo.com email addresses.? This is on my largest group, with about 6700 members. Likewise, on a group of about 600, I have 31 members bouncing.? Of the half who are soft bouncing, all are Yahoo.com members.??


Re: Send Invite To Group (tagged with #cal-invite) needs to default to unchecked

 

HI Gina,

GMF is a user-to-user community, no one from Groups.io monitors this group (at least not officially).

If you'd like to see it revisited post that in Groups.io's "suggestion box", the beta group:


Regards,
Andy


Re: Send Invite To Group (tagged with #cal-invite) needs to default to unchecked

 

My request is that the default get changed back to uncheck. ?This is wreaking all kinds of havoc with our group in all kinds of ways. ? ?

Thanks.

Hopefully you will revisit this in the future.

I was going to ask for Dropbox integration instead of Google.
I feel like they would be a better fit for groups.io, but I understand the technical considerations.
Hopefully you will revisit this in the future.


Re: Question about Files management #files #folders

 

So using an example from our group, the file target is: (pasted into
Notepad)

/g/Catalina30/files/Specs%20and%20Manuals/M-25XPB%20wiring%
20schematic%20%2839144_rev_m%29.pdf

So,
groups.io/g/Catalina30/files/

Specs %20 and %20 Manuals <- (the folder it's in)
i.e., or in English, "Specs and Manuals"

The file name:
M-25XPB %20 wiring %20 schematic %20 %28 39144_rev_m %29 .pdf
i.e., or in English
M-25XPB wiring schematic (2839144_rev_m).pdf

(We are not diligent about using underscore and/or hyphen "space holders" in
filenames.)

Re: suddenly many yahoo.com members are bouncing, but not all of them

 

jonathon,


The only bug report I ever filed was closed by the developer, saying
that the program (Thunderbird) was not an email client.

Thunderbird has more than one developer, but in any case that's certainly an odd answer. It puts me in mind of The Princess Bride: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

Anyway, good to know and watch out for if client access to Yahoo Mail doesn't count as activity that would prevent one's account from going dormant. Do you know if you were using POP or IMAP to access Y!Mail?

Most of my test accounts are for testing aspects of Yahoo Groups, and I know that using those web pages (as well as other Yahoo products) does count towards keeping your Yahoo account alive. I think the simple fact of signing in counts, regardless of which pages you visit.

On the other hand, there's a separate (and shorter) time-out for use of Yahoo Mail pages, after which your Yahoo Mail address is disabled. But that won't affect signing in to use Yahoo Groups or other products.

I'm not sure if this works in Chrome, but I just hover over the link and a small window opens at the lower left of the browser with the complete path shown.? I'm sure there's a technical name for that little window. ;>)

Re: Database help please

 

When one designs a "table" the setup uses "Rows" and "Columns" to identify what you are configuring.
This is what set in my mind instead of ID field.
Since I'm more of a "doer" than an "documenter" I leave the mental conversion of my Row terminology to ID as an exercise for the reader.
(Or possibly, as an Edit for the Moderator<g>)
FWIW Maybe we should petition Support to hide or even delete the ID field since many people may confuse it with the numeric position of the record in the data set when it's actually a relative position.

Re: Question about Files management #files #folders

 

Ken, thanks for that quick response but it doesn't seem to work for me. When right-click on a file link in the results list, I just see the standard Chrome menu for right-clicks. Am I doing something wrong?

Chris??
