Many thanks, Duane. I'll give it a try on Beta and see what Mark thinks of it.

Polls with multiple questions

#suggestion
I wished to post this request on Beta, but I thought to send it on GMF before, just in case I'm missing some essential information.
I saw that you can create polls with multiple answers, but not with multiple questions. The only option is to create as many separate polls. I'd like to have the possibility to create a single poll including more than one question. I would be happy even with a limited number of questions allowed. Is there any problem that I can't see?

Re: reduce storage size
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIdeally I would like to keep all the attachments but reduce their size. Is a there a way to do this in bulk? Is there even a way of doing it manually while keeping attachments attached to their relevant post? No to either, you can only delete them.? Now if you have a legacy group with Files, you could upload the smaller replacement image there and edit the original message, delete the large attachment, and add a link to the smaller image on Files.? If not, you could recreate the message with the smaller attachment and send it in, then delete the original attachment but leave the original message and link to it, but it would look like you sent the message, I guess you could put some text in the replacement message to indicate it's a repost and link to the original message, a bit messy. Either of these options has to be done one message at a time. Cheers, Christos |

Members receiving scam/phish with digest and malicious attachment
Hi All
First thanks in advance for any help. I did a search of archived messages and did not find what I thought this might be. I have had two members report to me they received a copy of our group Digest with a Phish message and malicious attachment. The sender is not a member of our group. The alleged receiver of the digest? is also not a member. The digest has been altered throughout. We are a restricted group. I'm wondering if this is my group's issue or the members have been hacked. As I said, this is the second report. The first report had? similar name but different email address as sender, also not a member of our group. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Thanks Nancy C ECIR Group MOD |

reduce storage size
Hi,
I am co-owner of a very small group doing cycle stuff. When I set up the group I didn't set a maximum size for attachments. Now several years later we are up to 80% of our 1gb allowance. Ideally I would like to keep all the attachments but reduce their size. Is a there a way to do this in bulk? Is there even a way of doing it manually while keeping attachments attached to their relevant post? Thanks Chris |

Re: Thread Reply: @ sign being replaced by an = sign
I believe I have found the culprit in my particular situation.? I had a user who was getting the error "510: The group 'username=yahoo.com' does not exist"? every time she tried to reply to a group post.? This is what I found...
She uses a Samsung Android phone with the Samsung Email App.? It appears that this app does not use the "Reply-To: " field in the email header but uses the "From: " field instead when replying to a group post.? Furthermore, If the message was sent from someone with a Yahoo email account, the "From: " field contains the funny "On behalf of" address (e.g. "username =yahoo.com at groups.io ").? If the message was sent from someone with a Gmail account, the "From: " field contains?the originator's Gmail address.??So, in the case of replying to a Yahoo sent message the user gets the "510: The group 'username=yahoo.com' does not exist".? In the case of a Gmail sent message, the reply goes directly to the originator, but totally bypasses groups.io. I instructed my user on how to use the reply links which are within the message.? She is also going to switch to the Yahoo Email App, which seems to correctly grab the "Reply-To:" address.? Perhaps others who have Samsung phones can test this to confirm.? Also, the iphone Samsung app would need to be checked, but I don't have one of those. |
Re: RSS Feeds and limiting to members of Group only?
Could it be that your problem person is still a member under a different account with a different email address? On Fri, Feb 23, 2024 at 7:12?PM Richard Sheasley <rsheasley@...> wrote:

It is sometimes tricky to figure out which one. But to your question: ?the help page explains how to do search: - View the manual as a single page . Then you can use the Find feature in your web browser to search the entire owners manual. - View a PDF version of the manual. Then you can use the Find feature in your PDF reader to search the entire file.
Tip: In most browsers and PDF readers, you can press Ctrl+F on Windows or Command+F on Mac to access the Find feature.
?I normally click on "single page" and use my browser Edit / Find (in Safari). About inviting people to join your group: Here's the Help page for using Invite. /helpcenter/ownersmanual/1/inviting-people-to-join-a-group?single=true Take the time to edit your Invite Notice (in Admin, Settings, Notices) and use your toolbar to highlight your own content to personalize it. Save it for future use and activate it. Note that you can't remove what is there (the boilerplate) which is required at least in some jurisdictions. But by spaces, formats, bolding and italics, colour, you can get a pretty good invitation. Then use Invite in your Admin menu.? Frances -- Help available from Groups.io help and GMF wiki. ? |
