Re: Problem with links in emails from Yahoo email users
Peter DeNardis
Here's what my settings are at...trying to strike a balance between allowing folks to post messages via email, but also thwart any potential spam/hack attempts.? Should I check "Normalize" and un-check "plain text only"? ? Peter L. DeNardis On March 14, 2018 at 11:11 AM J_Catlady <j.olivia.catlady@...> wrote: |
Resizing of photos
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDuane, ? o.k., I did what you told me. The stored information tells the same story, that indeed the photo has not been resized, it has the same numbers as the displayed size. So why is that? In my eyes this means resizing doesn?t really work, (or am I completely confused yet?;>) Victoria -- |

Locking the topic doesn't close the poll. It just prevents people from replying with a message. I think "close poll" is the only way to close it. ?Yes, my mistake.?

Just wondering whether you have "normalize HTML emails" set in your group? On Wed, Mar 14, 2018 at 5:58 AM, Peter DeNardis <pdenardis@...> wrote:

That's very weird. But these kinds of anomalies are basically why I've disabled the directory. (I also never use subgroups...) On Wed, Mar 14, 2018 at 6:20 AM, Steve <butterandpeanuts@...> wrote: Thanks, Duane.? I'll do some checking, but: |
Re: Anyone have samples of letters sent to your group before and after transferring to io
Hi Linda, I've attached the Word & pdf format letter I sent as a Special Notice and the Word & pdf format on how to login to create a password. The login & create a password is specific to my group but feel free to use it and explain the difference. I don't think many people used the login/create password because it is pretty straight forward. You can go to the MonGenes Yahoo Group to see the text we added. I couldn't change the banner, another blessing from Verizon/Yahoo. Hope this helps, Paul, Ohio, USA

Re: Page selection in Directory
That's something you should report to [email protected]? so that Mark can look into it.? This group is composed of other users, like you, and the staff doesn't monitor it as far as we know.

Page selection in Directory
There is a minor technical flaw in the page selection in the Directory.
At the bottom RH area, the pages can be selected with left and righ arrows. But both arrows increase the page numbers. The left arrow increases the pages instead of reducing the pages. Hope this is clear enough. -- Richard |
Anyone have samples of letters sent to your group before and after transferring to io
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýLinda, ? this is the letter I sent beforehand. I copied the cover photo of our group on top so everyone would see at first glance where it?s coming from. This is the text: --- we want to inform you that we will be moving our group to another site in the next few weeks, because Yahoo, as you will have noticed, no longer works sufficiently well. As you know our topics are ¡¡.. Once the transfer is finished, you will be informed again. Name (owner of the group) and the moderator team I sent a mail to each group member (it took me quite a few hours for we had close to 600 members). By this I also found out about non-existing members, bounced mail-addresses etc. and removed them from the members list before hand. Good luck with your group |

Re: Resizing of photos
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDuane, sorry, but I still don?t really get it. Just one example: I put photo settings to 140x140, then I uploaded a photo. When I do a right click to get foto info, it says: Size: 221,24 KB (226.552 Byte); Measures: 526px ¡Á 720px (resized to 240px ¡Á 328px). ? So where do I find that maximum size which I?ve set it to? Victoria ? ---- That confused me a little when it was first introduced.? I finally figured out that the photos are displayed at a slightly different size than they're saved at.? What you see when viewing depends on the device you're using to view.? If you download the photo, it will be at the maximum size you've set, so is stored properly. |
Re: Directory
#directory
Thanks, Duane.? I'll do some checking, but:
one member (who's a member, not a mod) can see all 8 in the group in the Directory; another member (who's also a member, not a mod) can only see 3 in the group in the Directory, including himself so there must be something else going on to explain that... your explanation that other members need to have enabled "other members of your group" to show up, doesn't explain why 1 sees all 8, and another 1 sees only 3. |

In Account Profile, Identity, each member can decide on their settings.

Problem with links in emails from Yahoo email users
Peter DeNardis
When a subscriber to my group (iwmfconnect) posts a message from their Yahoo email service, and inserts a url (like , for example), Yahoo automatically inserts a clickable image in that email message. The resultant message that appears in our group is stripped of that url and image completely.? Is there something that I, as list owner could/should do about that? Thanks, Peter L. DeNardis IWMF Connect manager

Re: Directory
#directory
Moderators will be able to see everyone.? Members will only be able to see other members that have enabled "Other members of your group".? It's easy for a moderator to forget to set this since they can see them all anyway.

Directory
#directory
I'm talking here about the Directory, not the member list under the Admin button.
In Admin settings, I have the member directory setting set to "subscribers" A member, not a moderator, has his profile privacy setting (under his Subscription, Group Profile, Edit Group Profile) set to "Other members of your group".? A moderator has the same setting in his account. Why is it that the member can only see 3 others including himself (I currently have 8 testing the group, 3 moderators and 5 "members"); whereas the moderators can see all 8 in Directory Any clue what I'm clearly missing?? Obviously (?) there is something unique on the 3 that are showing, and the other 5 that are not, but darn if i see it... |
