perhaps it would be cool for the architect of this site to allow others to 'donate' premium accounts and the like to groupsThat can already be done, within limits.? The group owner could make someone a moderator with Billing permission, then they could pay for the group.? On Premium groups, there is also the Donation page that can be set up to accept donations from members using the Stripe service.? And you can always post a link to another payment service on your group.? It's ultimately up to the group owner how things are handled.

Until this past week or soThe site 'remembers' which view you've used last.? If you choose a group from the drop down list of Your Groups at the top, it will be in the format that you last used.? If you select a group from the overview page (Your Groups on the left menu), it's hard coded to Topics view.? It's been suggested that this behavior be consistent, but it hasn't been addressed yet.

NowIt could be that you have accidentally bookmarked the topics URL, or it could be that your browser "remembers" the topics URL and therefore prefers to go to it when you don't watch out.

If one uses the Group IO platform for artistic purposes; such as, collaborating on poems, song lyrics, music, art etc... are projects added to the group owned by the creators of a the art, music etc or are they then property of GROUP IO?I interpret the legalese on the Terms of Service to mean that by sending content to a Groups.io group, you grant Groups.io the right to display that content on that Groups.io group, but you do not grant Groups.io any other intellectual property rights in your content. /static/tos Scroll to "User Content Transmitted Through the Service" As for copyright, things are not simple, but basically, for the most part, the author of any e-mail is automatically the copyright holder of that e-mail's content (unless he writes the e-mail in his capacity as an employee, in which case the employer is the copyright holder, or unless the content is published in the USA, in which case it's even more complicated, because different states have different copyright laws).

Re: sharing old posts

I want to share some of our best old post that just got transferred to our new io group.? I don't see a forward button.? What is the best way to share a post from the archive?You are not actually supposed to forward private posts to people who are not members of your group (unless you have the owner/moderator and all identified parties' permission, of course). Having a "forward" link or button would imply that it is okay to forward a message from within a group to someone who is outside the group. If you want to share content from the group with people outside the group, and you don't have the e-mail in your e-mail program, then the only way to share the posts is copy/paste. If the group's archive is set to "public", you can also send a link to the post or to the topic. Right-click the message number in the top right of the message and select something like "copy link address". Samuel |

The only way to reset one's password on Groups.io, is to use the "sendloginlink" feature. Even if you try to reset your password by clicking the "Forgot your password" link, it takes you to the same page, namely: /sendloginlink So, if a user struggles with setting a password, and IF YOU HAVE THEIR PERMISSION to help them, simply go to: /sendloginlink and fill in their e-mail address, and ask them to forward you the mail that they receive with the subject line "Link to log into Groups.io". Then you can log in as them, change their password, and tell them what their new password is. The sendloginlink mail looks like this: ---------------------------------------------------------- Hello, Here is a link to log into your Groups.io account: /loginlink/2230893240982340985 It will expire in 24 hours, on 11/15/2019 at 5:20pm CAT, but you'll stay logged in for 30 days, unless and until you log out. If you did not ask for a login link to be sent to you, please ignore this email. Cheers, The Groups.io Team ---------------------------------------------------------- Samuel |
