Re: Visibility of Directory
The Directory is an index of subscriber profiles. Each subscriber "owns" their own profile, and if they choose not to create one (or keep it hidden), that's their prerogative.
If you -- as a group Owner -- want every subscriber to "see" every other subscriber you have to share the Member List (Privacy>Members Visible). Bruce |

Re: Can I set questions for people requesting to join the group?
I agree it seems the "Pending Subscription" Member Notice feature was not fully thought through.
toggle quoted message
Show quoted text
Some believe it was intended only to PROVIDE Additional Information TO applicants for Subscription, and given that's all it REALLY does they may be right... Others use it to REQUEST Additional Information FROM applicants - I change its Subject to: "Additional Information Required". Currently there is no way to automatically put applicants 'on hold' until they answer such a request. Consequently, it is the first step in the workaround to do so. Your suggestion that the "View Pending Member" link be attached to a "Pending Subscription" Member Notice reply is a good one. Perhaps next year after the Great YG Migration (and probably the Groups.io app is rolled out), it can be one of several excellent feature requests to be brought up again and instituted. I believe a better way to vet would-be subscribers should be second only to an Absentee Owner Succession feature and/or a restructuring Set Moderator Privileges (to prevent a Founder/Original Owner being deposed). Hang in there, Groups.io DOES work on improving itself... On Nov 19, 2019, at 12:05 AM, Jim Pruitt <jpruitt67@...> wrote: |

Re: Monthly notice not going out
Jim,
Shal, you lost me. It is titled a monthly reminder.D'oh. So it is. I completely forgot that one had been added to the roster of Member Notices. I thought I had an example of every type in my test group, but I was missing that one. So I guess I don't see what isn't there, for the wrong definition of "there". (Should have looked in the Drop-list for New Notice). Odd. That one sorts out of order if you click on the Type column. I wonder if that is a clue to anything. I guess I'll find out in a couple weeks. Shal -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

Re: Signature/Advanced toolbar/Source code
#htmlsignature
Peter,
I then previewed it using the eyeball icon. Everything looked fineMost likely the problem is that the formatted text editor strips many HTML tags and parameters when you save the text. I believe that is the same for the Sig text as well as message bodies, wiki pages, and elsewhere. I don't know of any specific documentation about it though.

Signature/Advanced toolbar/Source code
#htmlsignature
Hello,
Is there any Wiki or Help info regarding html signatures?? I basically copied and pasted the code signature I use for Apple Mail. I then previewed it using the eyeball icon.? Everything looked fine but when I sent a message out the formatting was wrong. Does Groups.io add certain parameters I should be aware of? I've attached the Good and the Bad. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! |
