Re: text in post not showing on digest
I just noticed this type of thing today. We're having a discussion about something, and another poster responds to me partially by quoting my message, but showing his suggested edits within the quoted part - and the quoted part is completely missing from the digest. So, a digest person would have to logon to the site to see the full message. This is really really bad! A discussion back and forth should not be truncated.
I remember seeing something here about placing text under the quoted text so all would be included (well, I seem to remember that), but enforcing that is dicey. One of the features of a good GUI is not to expect the user to remember how to do things, it should just flow from the options on screen, etc. OK, enough preaching ;-) So, does "at least for now" mean there might be some consideration to making sure quoted text stays put in digests? |

Re: Pending Members not listed

As you can see from the photos:On mobile, you have to click open the More hamburger menu to get to Admin functions, and from your second screenshot it appears you have already done so at least once. I don¡¯t show any pending subscribers (Although their are 3).Did you click open the Members tab (again, in the second screenshot)? Anyone actually in pending status should show up there. They are instead listed as members even though they weren¡¯t approved, and their not listed as a member.I'm struggling to make sense of the above sentence. Are you trying to get people approved, or is the displayed number the only problem? Bruce |

Hi, I received an unsubscription request from a person, and I accidentally unsubscribed myself from the group Aprendendo-ingles, of which I am the owner.If you were the last Owner, you should not be able to do that. Go back to the group and double-check that you're actually unsubscribed. How can I regain my owner status in this group?Resubscribe to the group, then have one of your co-owners promote you back to Owner. This is done by pulling down the Role menu in your member record and making the appropriate selection. Bruce |

Admin - Members - Edit e-mail Address

Hello Again,
My group migrated from Yahoo fine. I have a member whose e-mail address has changed. I can go to the Admin, Members section of the group. I can open the members information page and I can enter his new e-mail address. When I click save at the bottom of the page, I get a message (in red) "That email address is already registered" and the e-mail address in the Email box reverts to the old e-mail address. The member is using the new w-mail address in our? club "test" group? How to I as Owner or Moderator change a members e-mail address in the migrated group? Going forward, how do members edit their own information? Also, as I understand it, this is a community help site, how do I request help from Groups.io employees working support? Thanks again loads. Cheers, Scott H. |

Hi, The good news is that businesses that are already GDPR compliant will have no issues with the new California Law (CCPA), according to this article :- By the way, I am not a lawyer. Please consult a lawyer if you are not sure of your need to comply with any of these new laws - GDPR since May 2018 and CCPA in January 2020. John Russell |

You have got the GDPR thing slightly wrong. GDPR requires the ability for a user to REQUEST removal of messages. It does not require users ability to remove messages personally.I'm not sure how much of the GDPR angle is speculation, but either way: you're right in that GDPR may not require that users have the right to remove content personally. They do, however, have the right to request that Groups.io stop distributing it, and when they request it, the request must be met, unless there is a legally valid reason to deny the request.? So... if users can always request this, and if their requests always have to be met, then I think it's just common sense (from an administrative perspective) to give users that ability directly.? It reduces paperwork. Samuel |

I am a moderator on a recently imported Yahoo Group, We don't allow "Delete Message" to regular members, Not even their own message.I assume you mean that there was a setting in your Yahoogroups group that disallowed members from deleting messages.?
