Re: Font on my laptop is tiny all of a sudden???

 

Thanks to Christos for the tip about zoom controls.? I immediately added it to my FireFox, and discovered that my gmail tab was at 110%, even though I have *disabled* the control-plus & -minus in my browser.? I checked some other tabs, and those were all at exactly 100%.
?
My tab was also at 100% exactly.? However, in the past, I have seen both my gmail and GIO tabs at what appears to be a larger font size--again, despite disabling the zoom functions (or so I had thought).? I chalked it up to FireFox/gmail doing whatever they please--but now I have actual evidence that I'm not nuts.
?
I commend this solution to the OP.
?
Metta,
Ivan

It's easy then to visually see right away if you're off from the 100% default, and/or zoom in or out using the mouse, besides the keyboard shortcuts.

Chrome also used to be customizable like FF in the toolbar regard but for some reason Google removed some of the customization features so not sure how one can do it in Chrome so the zoom controls will be shown in the toolbar.? Otherwise, in Chrome (& MS Edge), you can click on the menu (3 dots) and the Zoom controls will be under there, same in Opera except there click the O-menu and the zoom controls will be under there.

Cheers,

That's not what I observe. Those extra spaces are converted into a single one before the message is saved in the db. I'm talking about the subject text.

Not as far as I know.

There are may be browser extensions out there that may remove or deactivate those on any page, or possibly some browser setting itself, not sure.

Hello,

Is there a way that these two options for login can be turned off?

Thanks

Re: Font on my laptop is tiny all of a sudden???

 

Bob
Holding the Ctrl key while scrolling the mouse wheel will change the zoom.?
It unintentionally "happens to me" all the time.
You should see a spyglass in the URL bar if the tab is zoomed + or - of your default setting.? Clicking it?lets you reset to the default zoom.


Re: Font on my laptop is tiny all of a sudden???

 

Thanks!? You fixed it!!!!? I did not know that you can change zoom settings for each tab in Chrome. Perhaps I smacked the wrong key at some point.


Re: Font on my laptop is tiny all of a sudden???

 

It does not happen if I use Edge.? or Duck Duck Go.? It happens to me only in Chrome.? And it happened to ALL of my groups at the same time.


Re: Font on my laptop is tiny all of a sudden???

 

It is for groups. io only.? All groups - I am in five or six.


Re: Font on my laptop is tiny all of a sudden???

 

I have?the same?problem with one of my groups, but I have been assuming it's a gmail issue.

Does anyone else in your group have the problem, and are those who do gmail users?

-P.

It is easy enough to enlarge the type using ['command' plus '+'] but not sure why occasionally the type shows up tiny when the page opens.? It's a bit clumsy.

Is there something that I am overlooking which causes this?

Zoom settings are specific for the URL (at least it's that way in Chrome). Given that different groups have a different URL, they may also have a different zoom.

Be sure to change the zoom setting for each of your groups, especially if you access them via a browser bookmark.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

Is this for groups.io specifically, or every site? Is it in your browser only, or everything on your desktop?

Try changing your zoom setting (Ctrl +), or Ctrl-0 will generally set it to 100%.

Am I correct that a member in a hard bounce state (red "B") cannot post messages to the group?

Pete -- As others have said, this is hard to test, because it's hard to create the problem. My recollection, however, is that such accounts cannot post.

This makes sense given that bouncing accounts also do not count against your group (within the groups.io pricing structure). An extensive check of your activity log could confirm or refute this.?

Keep in mind that a bouncing member can log into their account and unbounce by clicking on the red banner warning. They can then proceed to immediately resume posting from the web site even if their email address still isn't accepting groups.io email.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

As Bouncing is related to email delivery, I don't see why a member could not post by email as well but I haven't tested it.

I'd tend to also agree that they would be able to send messages in, they just won't receive them.? However I'm not sure if we could test it, easily anyway. I wonder how one can induce a test address to go to red bounce, and if so, how long it would take, after all there's a certain existing condition (a bug more-or-less), where invalid addresses do not go to red bounce as they should if the messages sent to them are very few and far in between, see my question no.4 and Mark's reply right below it.

Well, lemme see...that was more than two months ago...

My previous suggestion stands:? If the problem persists, make sure they're actual files and not links to some other storage location that has since gone dead or requires some kind of authentication. Such "files" have a different icon and File Type (see appended screenshot).

Failing that, a screenshot of exactly what you're seeing would aid us in troubleshooting.

Hope this helps,

Are they perhaps also status ¡°Bounce (red B after the name) and not receiving emails from the gio system but do when they are sent from your email account?

The only way that you, yourself, can revalidate member addresses is if you had their passwords and signed into their accounts (web or mobile app) for them.?
