Group member has "No subscriptions"

 

One of my group members is unable to access the Groups.io website as when she accesses the site she cannot access anything. I have asked her to click on anything at the right hand end of the blue bar - she sees her name and when she clicks on it she gets the response that she has "no subscriptions".

How do I help her please? I have not seen this situation in any emails to this group or have had it reported to me by any other of my group? members.

Re: RSVP responses truncated

 

I agree, this seems minimally useful.

Try pulling down the green "Email" menu below this and select Export Responses. Can you read what Alex will be doing then?

If not, I suggest reporting this to ?requesting a feature enhancement. It doesn't make sense to collect RSVP messages if there's no good way to display them.

Re: Question [about learning how to run a group]

 

I just recently assumed responsibility for a few groups for someone until they return after some health issues are taken care of.
Also I am thinking about starting a couple groups of my own.
I presume that you are now a Moderator or perhaps an Owner of these few groups - look around and methodically explore them to understand the ¡°mechanics", especially all of the ¡°Admin¡± section (including everywhere it goes). Do not change anything, but figure out what each item does and how the choice made affects each of these groups. Many things are clear and often ¡®obvious¡¯, others may require searching the Wiki and/or messages on this group.

Think about what you like and what you would want to do differently for when you set up your own groups.



I was wondering if there is such a thing as a PDF file of something that a newbie, especially with IO, can get to read to get a heads up of what to do, when to do it to work at opening and maintaining a good group that functions well.
As Duane said, GMF's wiki is intended to be a good place to start; most of its content came about from questions other people have asked. Don't worry too much about topics you don't need or understand, they may not fit your situation or the nature of your group(s).
You¡¯ll probably find the wiki less overwheming if at first you only look at the parts of it that interest you, rather than trying to read, understand, and remember it from ¡¯start to finish¡¯. The wiki is more like a cook book than an encyclopedia or dictionary, not everything is in there and most people do not want to (and will not) read it ¡®cover to cover¡¯.


There are two aspects to running a group well. One we can call the "mechanics" of the job - knowing how to use the site's features and controls to do the things you need to do.
That half of it, the other 90% is:
The other is managing the members - dealing with questions, conflicts, and other issues that come up.

The first thing to recognize is that there are many different types of groups. Many groups are "discussion" groups (like this one), where all members are invited to start new topics and reply to other member's topics. Other groups are more like classified ads, where members are invited to post new topics, but replies go off-list (directly to the sender of the post). I've only scratched the surface, but the take-away is that you may need to tell us a little about the nature of the group(s) as context for your questions.

Hi Bruce,
Here you go.? If you adjust the size of the active browser window more shows, but that doesn't necessarily let you read the whole message unless you are very lucky.? :)

Ellen,

Bruce I am not certain if I did this correctly.? I entered the below in the analysis

You can't do what Bruce asked until you actually receive the message. You haven't, have you?

Yes, please let me know where it is hung up

Did it post in your group's Messages section? No sense looking for it by email if it didn't even post there.

What did the group's activity log say about it? You should see some entry there at the time you sent the message.

Do they show up in the Admin -> Activity log?
Check your own activity log - Admin -> Members -> click on your entry -> Activity History (tab) -> Filter on Action = "Accepted Message" and click Search.? Should show your messages processed by the system, whether via web or via email.

Re: EMAILING

 

SouthTexasHamFest had some good advice.
Just one more point - if you emailed your post, look at your group home page to make sure that you didn't inadvertently send it with the wrong email address. Remember that your email address is your account ID.?
I have done that - did it just today! It was waiting for me to moderate it!

Re: EMAILING

 

I am by no means any expert.
Some Mail Servers are instantaneous, other store and forward based on traffic, and some store and forward at given times/intervals.
This can happen on Send AND/OR Receive.
Like I said, im no expert, just my experience.
Im sure someone has a better explanation.

My question(s) would be
Did you send from your Groups IO page or did you send the message from your email to the Group?
Any attachments?


Need a few more details.


BTW: I like your "signature". I have actually started applying it to life (people) lately. :)

Re: Gmail Spam Warning on Groups IO messages

 

I think this is part of the"new" gmail they recently released.
I got a Yellow banner w/warning text that the message may be spam on a couple of messages.
It may have to do with the links in the messages.
I simply clicked to indicated it was not spam.
We'll see if I get more in spite of that.

Styling for the RSVP responses content allows very little room for display of response content, such that the content is truncated with an ellipsis (the full content is there in the HTML source). There is no way to drill down into an individual response to view all its content.
I am unable to replicate this problem (that was posted back in early October). Can you send a screenshot? Have you subsequently figured out a work-around??What happens if you click on the ellipsis? Note that an ellipsis in message display is clickable and will expand to show hidden content (usually a quote).?

I have not personally used this functionality of the calendar. If you don't get any further responses here you might have more luck posting in.?

Re: RSVP responses truncated

 

Same problem.? And yes, it is NOT an elegant solution to have to save the page as HTML to read the messages!
