Hello there,


I am having trouble in my group,


I keep getting a notification that says count change,


I don't know how to salve the problem.


Can anyone help?

This person is not on my group (she used to be, but caused trouble and was removed)...

While I don't pretend to know the answer can I ask if the errant member was definitively removed or perhaps put on the Banned list.

I ask just in case someone like the person you mentioned retains their Account; it is not beyond the bounds of possibility that a change of the account email address might work its way through to an entry on a banned list.?

Considering that Groups.io is a group email service, it stands to reason (to me anyway) that they may show up in the source code of messages, as several here do.

I joined your group and used View Source from the More menu on a few of
them. The = sign at the end of a line is a continuation character that
instructs the browser to concatenate the lines.

No, that isn't a browser feature at all. "=" at the end of a line is a feature
of quoted-printable encoding, which is normally used only in email. HTML
content in email should be completely decoded before passing it to a web
browser or display engine.

An email-to-web conversion should not include URLs that are broken up in
any way. Special characters in URLs embedded within HTML content are handled
a completely different way, called "URL encoding", based on %xx escapes.

That was my initial thought, but? no authentication.? They also show up on Google Images and FB/Twitter when I syndicate there.

*Something* seems to be between groups.io and my host that is blocking access.

But thanks for your time and input, this clue might very well lead to something; I'll keep trying different solutions.

I joined your group and used View Source from the More menu on a few of them. The = sign at the end of a line is a continuation character that instructs the browser to concatenate the lines.

Beyond that, there are several img tags containing src parameters that refer to files on tranceam.org. The height and width parameters seems to be honored but not the image source. Does this domain require any authentication (logging in, etc) to access these files? If so, that could be why they aren't being displayed.

Good luck,
Bruce?

Chuck -- You might try setting the #Feed hashtag to Moderated. If you let them accumulate for a week and then approve them all at once, I believe that will give the behavior you want (at the cost of some inconvenience).

For the benefit of others, there is no system hashtag called #News. The one associated with the RSS integration is called #Feed.

That said, you can append an already-existing hashtag to feed messages if you want to (on a feed-by-feed basis).

Will that do what I think it will do and just send out those RSS feed items on a weekly basis??

No. Feeds are polled for new messages every 30 minutes. That cannot be modified. Messages arriving via the feed are sent out like any other message (i.e.: in accord with each person's subscription settings).

If I also select under Hashtags->Notification->Web/App Notify, will it send out that notification of new posts on a weekly basis along with email notifications on a daily basis for our members who have Summary as their default notifications?? I'd like to not have that redundancy if possible.

The purpose of notifications is to provide timely information on system activity. They are sent immediately, regardless of subscription setting (kinda like special notices).

Although each individual can turn them on and off, there is no mechanism by which the sending of notifications can be delayed.

Regards,
Bruce

I'd like to setup an RSS feed from our website's blog to our group.? If I use the #News hashtag for that feed but don't want the default timing of every 30 minutes, can I edit that hashtag by selecting Mute Topics->Mute Duration and choose 1 Week?? Will that do what I think it will do and just send out those RSS feed items on a weekly basis??

If I also select under Hashtags->Notification->Web/App Notify, will it send out that notification of new posts on a weekly basis along with email notifications on a daily basis for our members who have Summary as their default notifications?? I'd like to not have that redundancy if possible.

Thanks!

It would help if the option could be labeled "Display Width (Pixels)" rather than just "Display Width."? Even better would be to make the value refer to characters

You're welcome to post a #suggestion on the where it will be seen by management.? However, the documentation clearly states that the measurement is in pixels, including a Tip to leave it at 0, so reading that is always a good idea.

Changing the display width back to the default 0 solved the extra member data display problem.

The width setting throws off a lot of people.? It's in pixels, not characters as many would presume.

Set up a database where people can add their email addresses if they want to and send out a email to group saying done that, then it's up to them if want to or not

Am I doing something wrong?? Is there a way to fix this or any way to change the display of? other columns to narrow the space allocated for the "Display Name" and "Email Address" columns, which are much wider than necessary, so the new columns could be displayed correctly on the screen??

I strongly suspect that you are also specifying columns widths for these new columns. This is problematic as different devices have different widths. Just leave the width as 0 (the default) and it will look better.? Note if you add a field of type address, you can specify the house number and street name under one column on the member list display.? It will also contain a link to a map, which I'm guessing should be Google Maps as per database address fields but it doesn't work so I'll raise a bug for that.?? Adding extra member data is a new feature and does not seem to be full developed yet so I would not be surprised if there were one or two more gremlins under the covers.
