Duane et al.,

I have now removed all but 7 of 179 RIs on our group. I left those last 7 RIs because I know them personally and will contact them individually to ask if they want to keep their membership to our group. Then it's up to them so that if they make no move to reverify then even their accounts will vanish eventually when Mark gets around to the final purge.

Now, having purged all those RIs, only two of them so far have contacted me, the group owner, and asked what happened and one of those asked to re-up, which was taken care of. The other seemed miffed that she 'had done nothing with her email address' which she 'had the same one for 30 years.' She was invited to rejoin but seems indiferent to the offer.

Meanwhile, none of the other 172 RIs who were removed have so far responded in any fashion. We'll see what happens with them (if anything) over the next couple weeks or so.

I did post a pinned alert on our message page saying that removed members are welcome to rejoin, and can only hope that this info filters down to any of those removed members who may want to rejoin our group.

Its seems that the responses and non-responses that I experienced are pretty much par for the course for this sort of situation. If nothing else the member removals that I effected may, in part, help to lighten Mark's load in some small way.

Cheers!

Re: Message compose Hamburger Menu

 

What hamburger menu? where is it?

The only hamburger menu I have found looks just the same as it did before

Or are you using a phone?

If you have a legacy basic group, go to Admin > Preferences > Upgrade to see a complete list of usage.? (For a paid group, the last screen is Billing.)

i also had trouble finding my members list that shows newest members first so that I could send a personal message. ?It seems if you have ¡®pending¡¯ members you have to click on the tiny x beside ¡®pending¡¯ for the membership list to appear ?¡­.


Re: Hi. Group Owner in trouble

 

Hi Duane and thank you for responding.

Here's what I found:

"Using 52 MB for attachments storage
Using 248 MB for photos storage"

Storage shouldn't be the issue, right?


Re: What happened to the preview "eye"

 

Mark just responded to my support inquiry and he has added preview back to the secondary menu .

Have you checked the storage space used by your group?? Running out is the most common cause of this.

Just click on their line and look at the Email Delivery History in the Bounces section.

Hi. Group Owner in trouble

 

Hi
Suddenly I can not add photos to an album.??
I was able to open the album
But not add photo.

I click I n ' add photo' and nada!

I am the group owner.

Any suggestions? Please?


What happened to the preview "eye"

 

Since the recent enhancement I am unable to locate the preview "eye" which allows one to review a posting before sending.
I found this to be a very useful feature that I used every time I posted. Has the preview option been eliminated or am I overlooking something?
I'm using the web version.


Re: Dark mode and hashtags

 

Hello Andy

I can change the background font colour but not the colour of the hashtag name (white) as far as I can see.

It's the combination of quite a few background colours with this white text that is causing me this problem.

I assume it is still the case - if they logged into a group to read the messages online, that would reverify them.?
Simply logging in no longer verifies an account. RI accounts are instead taken to a page where they can either resend themselves the verification email or change their email address.

Re: Sudden, unwelcome change of font

 

We also have always had many comments from members on Defaulted font size. Including from Apple users. Myself included.

The new font still appears small but cleaner. And an android app user noted some font improvements for their app with enhancements.

If each groups could choose their own default font size that would be great. But may be too difficult for site engineering. Because of default size for posts, I end up editing some longer posts or replies to larger size on our group, ?time permitting.?

The IOS web interface allows pinch to zoom. The IOS ?App ? does not appear to allow that function. So many apple users, myself included, do not try to use the app. ?I use the save to home screen function on IOS to save the main message page as my faux app icon. That is my main access point for ability to read the pages.
