If you want to set up a default time zone for people that join your group, it can be done at Admin>Settings>Default Sub Settings (button at the top of the Settings page). Please note that this is only a default for those who don't already have a groups.io account (i.e.: their account was set up as a result of joining). If they already have a groups.io account, the Default Sub Setting of your group will not override whatever they have previously chosen. Hope this helps, Bruce |

Re: pending member odd name
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDuane,Thank you.? Okay - so when the person using groups.io@...?posts a message in our group, does that show up on the message or on the email if they post via email?? If they have a display name, would that show up on a message board post and on an email instead? I am not happy about having someone using this site¡¯s domain as their personal name (). I think it will cause mass confusion among our members.

Group renaming incomplete
#groupname
I just set up a group, but realized the group name (e-mail name) needed to be changed.? I changed it yesterday in Settings as described in the guide for changing the group name.? Then today I tried adding member that was not currently registered with groups.io.? Everything seemed fine in that the new group name properly appeared in the e-mail address for the group and in the "confirm your e-mail" message to the new member.? But there is a problem with the "welcome to <newname>@groups.io" message the new member gets.? The new name does indeed appear in the subject line of the message, and the "from" address is also the new group name @groups.io.? But the content of that message contains all references to the original name of the group which was in effect over 18 hours ago, including:
And if the new member follows any of the links involving the oldname, they get a "sorry, but that group does not exist" page from groups.io. It appears the new group name is only partially propagated within the groups.io system.? Is this just a time delay problem?? If I wait another day will the "welcome to.." message for new members contain the new group name? |

pending member odd name
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýWe have a pending member who is applying using the name ¡°@d**** That seems like a very odd user name to ?me. Is it legit to use ?as a person¡¯s user name on an email address when they are applying to join a group here? If it is, would it open the door to mass confusion as to why ¡°¡± is posting on our private closed group?Thank you. Susan B |

I checked our IO G files and they are viewable. Our image files give me an option to "view" or download. The PDF files open in view (no prompt to download). I don't have any HTML or TXT or other file types.Thanks. No, no priority. I was just testing the system. Trying to see what are the options for making selected old Yahoogroups threads or mails available. Yes, PDF also opens in my browser without any prompting. It may depend on whether the browser has that functionality. The "Files" section does not accept images -- I was forced to use the "Photos" section, even for non-photo images. I rather dislike the "Photos" section because one is forced to view images as large thumbnails and "albums", instead of a file list with directories. And you can only see who uploaded an image if you click it individually. Not very useful for most uses. FWIW, I'm using Vivaldi, and I found that if I use the Undisposition extension (with "groups.io" specified), Vivaldi opens HTML, JSON, TXT, etc files even in my group's "Files" section. I'm not sure how dangerous this extension is... Samuel |
