That could take some work on your part.? Attachments aren't visible within a message, other than the link to them using the thumbnail.? If pictures are embedded, then they'll be part of the message, though possibly at a reduced size.

Thanks Andy.

I noticed that.

1. I could find 'messages' to download, but not 'topics' to download.

2. Not only I want to view the messages, I also want to make a printable list of all selected messages incl. their attached pictures.

Best regards,

Chris

Go to Admin > Preferences > Export Group ? and select the aspects of your group that you wish to export. Messages are exported in Mbox format and there are a variety of other applications that you could use to read them, including, I believe, Thunderbird.

Hi friends,

?

1. Is it possible to get a list of all topics in my group as owner/admin and export it?

2. Is there an easy way to make a printable list of a selection of messages including its meta-data and message-number and (if possible) a picture of attachments?

?

Best regards,

Chris

Re: Online Safety Act (UK)

I'm not sure that really applies to us.

Some members of one of my groups have email turned off within the group, but read and respond to messages directly from the web interface.

So it would be hard to say that our "only" user-generated content is by the methods named.

Still, I doubt we'd really be affected.

If nothing else it sets out in fairly simple terms what the On Line Safety Act is there to achieve.

What that guidance doesn't cover, is the exemptions to the requirements of the act.  Specifically, and what would be of most concern to groups.io list managers, is the exemption relating to email only groups.

The articles I've read have either ignored that exemption, or been extremely unclear as where those parameters lie.

Perfectly true, but compliance with GDPR and compliance with the requirements of the On Line Safety Act are not one and the same thing.?

Both Harriet (in her original post) and Andy Wedge (in a later one) referred to a and I strongly suggest that anyone with concerns should read it before worrying any further.

Re: Online Safety Act (UK)

We have a grand total of 12 members in our Group - I know them all as they have to be paid up members of our Astronomical Society.

?

I've just gone through Ofcom's regulation checker for the act () and answered six, what seemed like straight forward questions and found that: "Yes, the Online Safety Act does apply to your service."

?

I suspect Ofcom will have no interest in investigating our group and I'd be a bit surprised if they wished to impose a fine of up to ?18 million on our society. I don't think our members' subscriptions would cover this.

?

I note that Ofcom has published information to help organisations and their lawyers achieve compliance with the new Act - it amounts to more than 2,000 pages.

?

Although being retired I must have a lot of spare time on my hand, I'm not inclined to study this information.

?

Are any Group Owners or Moderators here going through the legislation to fulfil the legal obligations?

?

Cheer,

The number of members in your group is what shows on the group home page. ?It doesn't matter how they join, invited or not.

?

The website says:?

"When you are billed for your group, either monthly or yearly, we look at the number of members you have at that moment. A member is defined as a confirmed, non-pending, non-banned member of your main group."
Use "calculate your costs" to see based on your group size.

Re: using groups.io to do a survey

#48610

I seem to remember seeing once that Groups has a facility to do a survey, but can’t find anything about it in the Owner Manual.
Does the facility exist and, if so, how does one use it?

See this on polls -

Hello all.? I've read the documentation on how to change a member from "Use Group Moderation Setting" to "Moderated" however, the process is not working as per the docs.

?

Click Admin, then Members.

Find or Search for Member, then Click the Member.

Scroll down to Posting Privileges.

Change Moderation as needed.

Click Save.

The problem is that the Save button does not appear:
