Don't know if this is the place to do this or not but
KUDOS to groups.io. ?Our small group moved over from Yahoo in April and we couldn't be happier! I still, this morning, sat tensely as I put a clipart in my post. You wouldn't believe the number of times I'd put a clipart in my Yahoo post and loose the whole darn cotton-pickin' thing! ?It got so I'd copy/save anything substantial I'd composed onto Word. ? Once again, this morning, I sent a good morning post to the group, added some clipart, and sat tense waiting to see if it'd disappear or not go through. ?It went! ?This is such a relief and I'm glad to be here. ?Please stick around for another 12 years! ?Thank you! P.S. ?Is there a way to eliminate permanently those 2 little dash marks that appear before the customized signature? ?Thank you again! --?

Re: DIRECTORY - LIMITED TO VIEW OF MEMBERS
The Directory will only show those members that have created a group profile and have set it to be shared (owner/mods will see everyone).? The only way to make sure everyone can see everyone else is to make the Members list available to all.? That includes email addresses and other info, so may not be what you want.

With that setting, all replies go to both the group AND the sender.? If you normally want replies to go to the group, select Reply to Group as the default.? The footer should have a Reply to Sender option shown. That appears to be the home page of your group.? I don't see any errors or messages.

Re: Topic EDITED flag ¨C Who can see; who can access . . .?
#howto
Everyone can see the Edited badge and click on it to see the edits.? The only way to 'hide' it is to disable editing of messages.

Reply to Individuals

I went in and changed the settings to Message Footer to force the HTML Tag. Change to Reply to Group and Senders.
?
Is this the correct settings so you can reply to one sender.
?
I did select update group when completed

A member of our group is getting this response which I have attached.? I emailed him individual and he is getting the response at the bottom of the image |

Topic EDITED flag ¨C Who can see; who can access . . .?
#howto
Was wondering who can see the edits made to a post online at a GIO group.
I'm a group owner and just noticed the blue 'EDITED' flag at the upper righthand corner of an opened message. Also just discovered that as an owner I can click on the EDITED flag and see a list of the edits by date of edit and also open and view them. I also discovered that as a regular member (via a 2nd registered subscription to my group) I can still see and click on the EDITED flag and access the changes, although they are somewhat more limited. So my question is, are there any group settings available for hiding the edit flag from the general membership and/or possibly from the Moderators. Haven't been able to locate any controls specifically dealing with this. TIA Paul M. == |

Re: Account disappeared
#membership
This is a new one on me.
"Email marked as spam" cancels your subscription to a group. It does not delete your account. So I'm wondering if we're talking about the same thing. If his account actually did disappear, my guess is he may have tried to do an account merge or deletion and swapped the email addresses. IT professionals make mistakes, too.?

Account disappeared
#membership
Our condo HOA is new to Groups.io, having ported over from Yahoo.? However, we have a mystery, and we were wondering what happened, and could it happen again.
One of our members reported that he had two gmail accounts registered in Groups.io, and one of them (the one he relied on) suddenly disappeared.? He was able to go back in and reestablish the account, using the exact same gmail address and password for it that he'd used in the past. I searched this group looking for similar problems, and found one that talked about email marked spam.? We reviewed that and found it was a different problem than ours. Is this something that happens?? We have about 75 registered email addresses, and no one else has reported anything like this.? (The member with the problem is an IT professional, and he knows how data bases and list servers work.) |

Re: Calendar and timezone problems
#timezone
There are several places for time zone (TZ) settings.? You can choose the default for the calendar and also for your group.? Each member also has a TZ setting in their account.? This allows each member to see their local times for events.? You should be able to find a pretty good explanation in previous posts on this group.
If you're looking at an event after the DST change, it may appear to be off now, but will be correct after the change. Duane -- Help: /static/help GMF's Wiki: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Search button at the top of Messages list A few site FAQs: /static/pricing#frequently-asked-questions |

Re: plans
For free groups, each person that applies for an account on Groups.io will be sent an email with a link to click that confirms they entered the correct email address.? On paid groups, an owner/moderator can confirm it for them.? I believe it's automatically confirmed when you direct add someone on a paid group.

Re: REPLY TO ONLY THE SENDER / AND EMAIL TO MULTIPLE PEOPLE / ANOTHER QUESTION
The information included in the footer depends on whether the original message was HTML or Plain Text.? It can also depend on your group settings for message formatting and whether the group is set for Reply to Group, Reply to Sender, or Reply to Group and Sender as the default.
An admin can choose people from the members list to send one message to all of them, but there's no option for members to contact more than one person at a time other than by posting to the group.

Re: NC - Means
That means they haven't confirmed that the email address they signed up with is theirs.? They should have clicked on the link in the confirmation email they were sent.? On a free group, you can go to the members group information, scroll to the bottom, and send a new confirmation email.? If it's a paid group, you can confirm them there.

How many people can sign on to a Groups.io distribution list?I don't think there's a limit to the number of group members.? (The Update group currently has 507,446!? The next highest public group is ~13k.)? There's likely an unknown-to-us point where the service would slow down if too many people got online at once.
