If your group doesn't mind revealing the entire thing, go to Admin > Settings, second area down is Privacy, bottom option is for "Hide Email Addresses In Archives".? If you set that to "Do not mask email addresses in the archives." they'll be visible online.

== == Well Shal, color me extra slooow!, but I finally understood the explanation about changing the Editor option in my Preferences to HTML temporarily. Once I did that yes, the other formatting buttons showed up in the Wiki Formatting Bar under the dropdown menu and I was able to effect the wanted changes. So thanks to everyone on here who offered me help and suggestions, and also for all the explanations and patient nudging. I never would've figured it out on my own. And with any luck this extended thread may help out some other newbies who're having a similar problem. Cheers! Paul M. == |

Re: Wiki
Hello,
Just starting to go through the wiki page (?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/How-to-put-a-Table-of-Contents-on-a-Wiki-page?) and one thing that took me a few minutes to figure out was that the actual line -?[?TOC:Example Table of Contents:1?]?- needs to be in paragraph style.
I had already started my page with Headings and inserted the TOC before my first entry, making it Heading 1. Looked really funky. Took me about 5 minutes to figure it out.
You might mention adding the TOC as the 1st step in creating a new page before adding content as I'm pretty sure most wouldn't change the style until they got to that point anyway.

Re: Do groups.io group members need a groups.io account?

I think members of the group can be members without having to have a groups.io account.? Is that correct?No.? When anyone joins the group, online or via email, they have an account on GIO - their email address.? If they want to do anything more than shown in the email command list, they'd need to go online.? However, that's not as tedious as it was on YG.? See /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Logging-In? They don't even need to create a password unless they want to. For setting up a signature, see /static/help#sig (which will need to be done online.)

Re: #featurerequest Request for Cover Image caption

Paul, Shal, what you suggest is unlikely since my Macbook Pro is a 15-incher.? I believe what matters is the pixel width, not the physical width.
I've noticed the problem when the window is below around 1000 pixels wide.
That said, I'd think a modern machine like that would have more than enough pixels in the default screen size. So maybe there is a problem with how the site's responsive code is interpreting your device's parameters. I also checked that possibility by enlarging and shrinking the image in the window by using [ Command + '+'? or '-' ].? Also checked by dragging the window larger and smaller.? Neither option caused any truncating of the dropped down formatting menu for the Wiki setup. One of my complaints with the current setup is that the collection of buttons is "locked in" at the time you open the page. Changing the size or zoom afterward won't cause the missing buttons to appear. This makes it tedious to test the width issue. Nor does there seem to be any way to change that in my account's Preferences accessed upper right corner under my name.? I even checked there, JIC. It should be there: -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

It still apears to me that our group's setting to 'text only' must be suppressing those text formatting options.It shouldn't.?

After the fact, any member who objects to having their content at Groups.io can file a "take down" request which Groups.io will honor. The logic of that is based in US copyright law, specifically the DMCA and its safe-harbor provisions for sites that host user-supplied content. Late in the game Mark also implemented a "before the fact" means for the person setting up the transfer to exclude specific members (email addresses) and their content from the transfer.
