Re: about special notices
No, that's something they'd have to do in their email program when replying.? I don't think there's anything Groups.io can do about.? Maybe if the reply were made online, but that would be a minority on most groups.? To be clear though, it's NOT actually sent as a Special Notice unless it's sent by an admin of the group.

Re: How to tell if a post is a special notice?

If a hashtag is applied, there is no indication of this while in pending status, and you just have to remember which of the perhaps hundreds of hashtags have the "special" flag set. Well Pete, I was wrong.* In both cases (ticking the checkbox or applying a hashtag) the Special badge will appear on the pending message and the activity log entry will say "sent special notice."

Although these log entries do contain links to the messages, as with the message base itself there's no good way to filter them. Still, better than nothing.

Is there a way to tell in the archive whether a post was sent as a special notice? If the "send as special notice" checkbox is ticked during message composition, the message will display a "special" badge while in pending status, and the corresponding entry in the activity log will say "sent special notice" rather than "sent message."?

If a hashtag is applied, there is no indication of this while in pending status, and you just have to remember which of the perhaps hundreds of hashtags have the "special" flag set. Further confusing the issue, regular members (non-Mods) cannot send a special notice even if they apply the same hashtag.
?
As I look at my group exports, the data available suggest that this information might not be stored at all...the message just goes out immediately to everyone not on "no email" and that's it. But if it is, I agree it would be handy to be able to filter on it.?

I have at least one member of my subgroup who is not a member of the primary (parent) group. This seems unlikely. When someone is approved for a subgroup they are automatically added to the main group. A person can, however, have a different Display Name in the subgroup vs the main group. You need to look for a matching email address, not rely on other data elements.

Re: A website that uses the domain name of our group
There are lots of recent top-level domain names (like .com, .edu, .org). I'm fond of .xyz, which seems pleasantly unevocative?of anything except confusion. You might be able to find one you like if you look down . -P. On Tue, Oct 1, 2024 at 7:25?PM Steve Haas via <Goatfisher2=[email protected]> wrote:

Can I make a form that is located in Files--- that links to a Database? There's no linking.? You could either enter the information from the forms or allow members to enter the information on their own line of a database, depending on what you need.? If you have them enter it into the db, you can set it so they could edit their own row or all rows.

Google Calendar Sync NEVER shows Groups.io Calendar Changes
I know there's been discussion in her about delays in Google synching its calendar, but this goes beyond a day or week. It's been a month since our group (FictionRiders) changed our meeting dates (for one month only), and Google Calendar (synched) still shows the original dates.
Is this something that should be addressed to Google instead?
