That was my experience. ?The user didn’t upload the file (not sure why) but notification went out to the group.?

I concur, Hudson. Send it to Mark. I think the original notice should also go to the group owner address.

As a related issue, I wonder if a notice shouldn't also be sent to the poster if there's an upload reduction limit in place and the image has been reduced along with a note that the group owner can change that setting if necessary.

Hudson, if you send this to beta I'll follow onto your lead to support it.

I would consider that a #bug that should be reported on the beta group.? (And I can verify that's what happens if you try to upload a photo to Files on a group that doesn't have that option turned on.)

I recently had a file upload refused for wrong file type, got the error message that file was wrong and not uploaded.

Fine, I went with "plan B", But the notification that a file had been uploaded was sent to the members.

Should things be changed so the the notification goes out AFTER a successful upload?

I set my groups to not allow “no email” so the closest option becomes “special notices only”. I wouldn’t want to have to send out a bunch of personal emails if there is something Important the entire group should be made aware of.
Regarding groups which may have “sensitive” components - medical, mental health, etc. - i think some members may believe that choosing “no mail” ensures privacy. If they ever post, even if they only post on the web, their email address will be visible/available to other group members who receive any form of group email (individual or digests).?
If we own any “sensitive” groups, members should be made aware of this and, if they have concerns, encouraged to use an alternative email address. ?I’m still hoping that Mark may someday fix this privacy issue (which is not synonymous with anonymity). Currently, the best defense is restricting group membership.

Jules, if I understand you correctly, in the "Upload File" dialog box where you choose the file, there is a "Notify Members" checkbox. When you check that, a message is sent to your group, and it includes a link to the file.

I am trying to figure out how to include?a link to the file that gets uploaded when we send a notification out that a file has been uploaded.

If you use the Notify Members box when uploading the file, it automatically includes the link.? There are limits on how many will be sent in a short time.

Hi,

I can't see any way of limiting the number of rows in a database table. I want to create a table and allow members to add details to it until a maximum number of rows has been reached. Ideas anyone?

Thanks
Andy

Check the Settings page under Message Policies.? You probably have "Disable No Email" selected (second item in that panel).

I run a couple of group .? One has to do with mental health. I have a couple of Drs as subscribers.? They selected no e mail in response to frequency of messages from the group.

I make exceptions for them, since they run private practices.??

I see that no e mail is not an option anymore.? ?It used to be.

Any thoughts..

Robert

This stopped happening. I'm assuming Mark fixed it.

Brooke -- The Pending Subscription notice is sent to those who apply on their own to join your Restricted group. Sending a message to the +subscribe address is one way to apply.

This notifies them that their subscription is under review. Until you examine their application and approve them, that subscription remains in Pending status.

Now that whole subscription email process seems to have just stopped working... I have had folks in the coop tell me they followed my instructions, but got nothing back. I tested it on gmail addresses I have created for the purpose - where before it was perfect, now I get nothing...

I find if I invite or direct add folks, they miss the whole "pending" process to get them to update their account info, which I added a notice for so it was all happening automatically.??

The difference here is that those people did not apply...you asked them to join.

The Pending Subscription notice isn't?sent to anyone you Invite or Direct Add, simply because those people never land in Pending status. The premise here is that you have already vetted them and want them to join, otherwise you would never have sent them the invitation.

If you wish to acquire data about someone no matter how they get into the group, you'll have to find some other way to do it.

Regards,
Bruce

I just tried it and it doesn't seem to work. The Pending Subscription notice I set up in my test subgroup doesn't work.
I did try it with a member of the main group as required.

Odd.

Are they already a member of the main group? They must be, even if they are set to Special Notices or No Mail.
(Or perhaps the main group, if it isn't really in use could be an announcement group. Only the owners/moderators can post.)

I'm at a loss as to what I possibly did or changed to mess up a system I had working SO well.

Any ideas welcome! Thank you in advance.

Sometime in the past forty-five minutes my message display reverted to normal. Seeing twenty at a time and the upper right display index shows 1 of 20. Clicking the forward arrow brings me to 21 of 40.

Guess the work session is over!

Seeing the same here. I've already made a post about it on beta group.
