Groups.io site updates #changelog


 

Hi all,

This week's change log:


Feel free to reply to this topic if you'd like to comment on the
changes. Or better yet, if you expect a lot of discussion start a new
topic (or rejoin an existing one) about a specific change.


NEW: When direct adding people to a parent group and subgroups, only
send out one direct add notification to each member.
This happened hours too late for my recent batch of PTA members. Still, glad to have less confusion on that front. Now, if I'd only remembered to uncheck the Active box for the default Welcome notice of that subgroup ...

This is why one should always pre-flight a Direct Add (or Invite) using a spare email address that is not already a member. I know that, but got in a rush and forgot to do it.


CHANGE: Added text to banner that is displayed when invites or direct
adds need to be approved to hopefully explain things better.
Thanks Toby and Jim for suggesting this.


BUGFIX: Pending subscriptions older than two weeks were not being
deleted.
Thanks debbie for reporting this.


Comments about these others are also welcome:

NEW: Add the group subject tag to the subject of private replies.
INTERNAL: Added support for postgresql integer arrays.
INTERNAL: Upgraded the postgresql go package.
BUGFIX: There was a bug in the subgroup display page when categories
are set up that could cause groups in the same category to not be
displayed together.
CHANGE: On the pending message page, display the 'Ban Sender' even for
existing members.
BUGFIX: For some reason, Google lost our geocode API key, which
prevented the database map view from working. Had to recreate the
key.
CHANGE: When rejecting a pending subscription by email, ignore the
request if the subscription is not, in fact, pending (ie it's been
approved already).
NEW: New group setting, Viruses, to set whether messages with viruses
are blocked or moderated.
API: New group field: HandleVirus
CHANGE: Do not log a change in user or display name in the activity
log of any group the user is banned from.
CHANGE: In activity log, change "Rejected message" to "Message
rejected".
Please call out any you find significant.

Shal
