1. Is the image as it is displayed in the browser LARGER or SMALLER than the original?

2. When you visit the image in individual view, and click the "Download" button, does it then show/download the image in its original clarity?

3. I posted a possibly related post here:

Spam getting through to group

Ken Hamer
 

We have a group with about 120 members and it works great. In the past couple days, we have started getting spam messages spoofed as one of the members - except it¡¯s not really.

The member¡¯s address is <person>@yahoo.co.uk but the From: field of the spam message is showing as <person>@....

So my questions are:

1. The address checking functionality is obviously treating the spoofed address the same as the real address. Is there a way around this?

2. Is there a way of viewing the raw source of messages as they have come into Groups.io?

3. Is there a way of viewing the raw source of messages held in the messages archive?

Many thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Regards,

Ken Hamer

Did you resend them after you changed the setting, or are you still looking at the old images?

Re: Integration with Google Calendar #calendar

 

I am stuck on this and it is probably something stupid - and it is on the Google end.? So I got the Calendar link from Groups.io - but I can't find "add friend's calendar".? ?There is a link called "add calendar" with a "from url" option so I assume that is it.? It just adds another calendar at the bottom - I could see all events on one calendar view by clicking that box and the calendar I want to integrate, but that is still two calendars.? I want the events from Groups.io calendar - and maybe others - to consolidate on one calendar which I can then reshare or publish on my website.?

Am I thinking about this incorrectly, or doing something wrong?

Re: #membership (Slack) #membership

 

Anyone know the latest on the Slack integration.? I believe it will sync if there are no subgroups, but what happens then.? Say you have a Groups.io group with 100 members and you sync with a Slack channel with 10 members.? Do all the Groups.io members get added to the Slack channel, and do all the Slack channel members get added to the Groups.io group?? If so, that would mean the Slack channel members would start getting emails - which they may not want and the Groups.io members would start getting Slack notifications - which they might not want.

What happens when someone posts on Groups.io - does it go to Slack, and are Slack messages turned into email messages?? ?I agree - this advertised feature is a big reason I came here also, and a little documentation would help.? Does anyone have real world experience with this who can explain how it works.?

Thank you

Rob


Re: blurry photos??

 

What size and resolution is the original?
can you email it to me and I¡¯ll experiment.?


Re: help with a issue a member of my group has

 

So are you saying she does have a Pw, but up ?til now the sign on has been automatically populated, or that she has remained logged in after web sessions?
if that¡¯s what you/she is saying she probably cleared her cache(s) and cookies. After she logs in once she should be able to stay logged in. I hate ¡°clean up¡± utilities/apps that do that and wipe all my auto password/usernames.?

if that¡¯s not it - more info please? ?

Made zero difference to what? Previously uploaded photos will not be "unblurred" by increasing the size limit; it only affects photos uploaded after making the change. Likewise reducing the size limit has no impact on existing photos, only those uploaded subsequently.

Duane,

? ? ? ? ? You are correct.? There is a 'p' in one that's not in the other, and the "bounce" tag threw me off (and I can't count how many times I've looked at this thing and not noticed that 'p'.)

? ? ? ? ? Clearly, I can delete the address (or, more likely, non-address) that has the bounce tag.

Re: blurry photos??

 

Check your group settings to see if you've selected to resize photos when they get uploaded.? They will take less space that way, but can get some pixelation if you go too small.

blurry photos??

Re: Deleting a bounced e-mail address that later subscribed successfully

 

Brian,


... when a member tried to subscribe initially the request bounced (and that's noted in the Members list) but that they succeeded right afterward.

Um, what?

If they were trying to use the +subscribe email command, and that bounced, there would be no record of that in the Members list. Not even the Pending Approval list (for a group with Restricted Membership).
I don't have a Premium group, but I don't think a failure like that would be regarded as a Past member either.

In fact, as stated, I don't think the attempt would even make it to the group's Activity log.

So, can you provide some additional detail to help un-confuse me? In my head the word "bounced" is tied too strongly to email messages to provide any sensible connotation for what you're describing with respect to a membership.

The Members list is messy when you have a number of these bounced entries, and I want to be certain that I can delete those, and those alone, without having the side effect of actually unsubscribing the member entirely when they used the same address to subscribe, and it later worked.

As far as I know, the same email address can never have more than one row in the Members list. So what you're describing makes no sense. That same statement is apparently not true of the Past Members (or whatever it is called) available only to Premium groups, so perhaps that's where you're looking?

Can anyone confirm that this side effect will not occur and that it's safe to cull the bounced entries?

If you select the Bouncing list that should include only rows with Bouncing (blue B) or Bounced (red B) status. That list also should never contain the same email address twice.

I'm pretty sure it would be safe to remove any entries there without fear of removing someone with normal status.

On the web UI click on Members in the column on the left. Then using the "blue tab" above the Display Name column select Moderators. This will give a list of those with Moderator status, which by definition includes anyone designated as an Owner. Does this person appear in this list??

Then click anywnere on the person's Display Name or email address; this will take you to a page listing everything about them as a member. A little way down the page there is an entry called Role; does it say Owner or Moderator below this? If you have Owner privileges then you could change this now, but I suggest that you don't. Then click on Activity History, to the immediate right of the blue "Membership" tab. Using the pull - down at the right hand end of the Actions box select Moderator Changed, and click on Search.

This will produce a list of actions in which either (a) the person concerned changed someone else's moderation status, or (b) had their moderation status changed by somebody else. Work your way through the list to find who promoted the person to Owner, and approach them to find out why.

What you do thereafter is up to you, but make sure that no - one does it to you first! However, if the person is listed as the sole owner then your own status might well not be that of (co)Owner; despite your being "owner" you might find that you are actually "just" a moderator.

If you see what I mean...

Re: Remove a Member

 

ASCA Manager,


"The member cannot be removed because they are the sole owner of the group."

This person is not and has never been the owner of the group. Any thoughts?

If you're sure you haven't accidentally checked your own row as well, and that the row you've checked doesn't have the Owner badge, then I'd screenshot that and send it to [email protected].

As an alternative to using the Actions menu you can click on the person's row (anywhere but the checkbox) to open that person's subscription page. At the bottom of that page there's a red Remove button you can try.

Remove a Member

 

Hello,

I am trying to remove someone from the member list. I am the current owner of the group. When I check the box next to the name and go to remove this message appears at the top.."The member cannot be removed because they are the sole owner of the group."

This person is not and has never been the owner of the group. Any thoughts?

Thank you

In my case, one of my groups is to help folks with a particular vehicle (that isn't made any more.)? There are 1700 members, about 450 of whom are on "no email", but read online.? I wouldn't want to kick them off just because they don't post.? Hopefully they're learning about their vehicle and all their questions have been answered, but that doesn't mean they won't post some day.
