As an Owner/Moderator, how do I Forward an email received by the group to elevate it to Special Notice Only status
?I¡¯m an Owner/Moderator for a group and we have some members who are ¡®Special Notice Only¡¯ subscribers. That means they obviously don¡¯t get all of the messages sent by anyone.
As a moderator, I see some of the messages rise to the level of ¡®Special?Notice¡¯ and want to pick them up, change them to add the ¡®Special?Notice¡¯ category, and send them on (back out) to the Group. But I don¡¯t see any way?to do that. I¡¯ve had to resort to a ¡®copy-paste¡¯ routine and send it?out from my address, giving credit to the source. ?
?Is there a way for someone with the privilege to Forward (or Reply), appending the Special Notice trigger?
?Thanks. |

Their method to deal with the subscription is very poorly programmed.I just looked and the buttons are clearly labeled as to what you're signing up for - $20/month or $220/year.? Support is your only hope.? I think Mark is working overtime trying to get the app finished, so it may be awhile before you get a response. BTW, this is a user-to-user group, so no one here can do anything about matters such as this. Duane -- The official Groups.io user documentation is in the Groups.io Help Center.

Re: Send-only subgroup?
Appreciate the help Duane and Bruce!
?
To summarize:
? ?I manually added specific members to our subgroup (our organization's planning committee).
?
In the settings for the subgroup:
? ?Privacy -> Visibility -> "Group not listed in parent group, messages viewable by subgroup only"
? ?Spam Control -> "Restricted Membership" [ON]
? ?Message Policies -> "Allow Nonmembers to post" [ON]
?

Maybe it doesn't sound democratic, but I wish there were a distinction between Owner(s) and Founder.There was a sometimes heated discussion about that on the beta group awhile back.? I think Mark decided the current mechanism was a good compromise of the sides.? The original owner (founder) can maintain ultimate control, but give moderators all the permissions so they can do everything except promote themselves to owner, demote an owner, and delete group.? They can promote others to the same moderator level as themselves, so the group should be able to continue indefinitely.? There shouldn't even need to be a co-owner unless the group needs to be deleted at some point. Duane -- The official Groups.io user documentation is in the Groups.io Help Center.

I wonder is there a way to set a new member to "NO EMAIL" and not grant that user the ability to change the setting until the group has an idea if they are suitable?Ken --?Currently, the only reliable way to vet prospective members before providing access to group emails is to use the Restricted method of Spam Control. You could set your group's Default Sub Settings to Daily Summary or a Digest, but there's nothing to keep a new person (with the wherewithal to do so) from changing it to Individual Emails.

Other groups, such as GMF, are not affected by the change, apparently, and the menu is shown on the left and everything is as usual.Marina -- Any difference between groups is probably due to a browser zoom setting.

Re: How to stop address harvesting
We did BAN the member, but the damage was done. ? I wonder is there a way to set a new member to "NO EMAIL" and not grant that user the ability to change the setting until the group has an idea if they are suitable? That way they wouldn't be able to harvest e-mail addresses. |

It used to flip between the mobile (hamburger) and desktop menus at a screen width of around 799. Now it's 1239.I suspect this is a result of the programming that Mark has been changing/updating to work with the new version of the app he's working on.? I think it should be reported as a #bug on beta as he probably overlooked it. BTW, for Barry, I think most 15" screens are no more than 1024 pixels wide, so that would explain your situation.
