No one has to sign up for anything with Sponsorships, Groups.io takes care of all of it.? If you do Donations, you have to have a Stripe account.

Both members had to be logged in to get to the sponsor button. No error messages. Clicking on pay with a card take me to a Your Groups page that has a check box in front of my group link. There are no buttons to submit the transaction. So far nothing has transpired.? George

I believe they need to be logged into the site to use the Sponsor button.? That's the only thing I can think of that would prevent it (other than bad information being entered).? If they don't get any error message, it should work.

I've often wondered, what is the reason for that? You can change a group's message archives from publicly viewable to private (members-only), but you can't change it back. Why is it set up that way, I wonder?

Simple - someone may post private information knowing the archive to be private. The archive could only logically/safely (i.e. retaining the trust of the members) be later made public if all previous content is removed.

Just an FYI

?

! Important: If you select a “private messages” visibility option, you cannot change it later to a “publicly viewable messages” option. The “private messages” setting is not reversible. You can later change a public message archive to a private one, but you cannot change a private message archive to a public one. Therefore, at this stage, you must be certain about the visibility that you want your group’s archive to have.

Message archives?

Admin -> Preferences -> Settings -> Privacy -> Visibility

Then select the choice you want.? "Private messages" means visible only to your group's members.? And don't forget to click "Update Group" at the bottom after you make your selection.

I use this on a weekly basis and the system generated message has a #cal-summary hashtag and includes the next 20 events on the calendar.? I've not tried the Monthly schedule but would expect this to go out on the 1st of the month like some other monthly notices.
