In the meantime, clicking on the Uploaded column on right will reverse the sort order to make it easier to get to. Not sure why, but it has to be clicked twice to get newest first. Duane

File "sort order"
#suggestion
Wayne Swearingen
Would it be possible to incorporate a default sort order in the files section?
For example, I upload our monthly newsletters in PDF form and name them: "2020_08 - Person of the Month.PDF" Which ends up putting the newest file on the last page, not the end of the world if your somewhat technical and know where to go looking. But the casual user tends to not venture that far from what I've heard from our club members. Could there be some sort of global "toggle", if you will, that would allow the default sorting option to be set? Wayne

Sorry for the delay, Mark.
Yes, dumb me. I did create the test group as a free Premium. Sorry. that does explain why the map. I'm using that group as a training ground for new moderators. -- Bob Bellizzi

Re: Photo Upload Notifications

Thanks Bruce, but I understand how both messages are sent, one to the owner and one to the group. That’s not my issue.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
The problem is that the body of the message says that XXXXXX uploaded a photo, along with a hyperlink to the photo, six times within the body of one message. And no, they are not multiple photos. It is only one photo.

It happens in the notification message I receive as the group owner and also in the notification message that is sent out to the entire group.The notification sent to the entire group is triggered when the uploader ticks the corresponding checkbox in the upload dialog. You can head off this notification by setting the "moderated" flag on the #file-notice hashtag. The notification sent to you as a Moderator/Owner is controlled by your subscription settings. Click on Subscription on the left-side menu bar and update the "Moderator Notifications" block according to your preferences. Further discussion on this topic should really be taken up in GroupManagersForum or Group_Help. Regards, Bruce

I wouldn't object if theIt probably should if it was a Select All, so there wouldn't be anything on the search results anyway. If only some of the members from the search results were removed, then it should return with the list updated, in case someone wants to remove one member, then decides to remove another member from the same search list, and so on. That's provided the search list can be updated properly after the remove, so any members just removed aren't on the list anymore. JohnF

When you did the first remove, of the two people, did that actually remove the members from the group? I'm wondering if it was a delay of the action propagating to the search cluster.

Also on the TODO list. I tried a few things, but was unable to get it working. I need to spend more time with the Javascript to figure it out. It is not an easy or quick fix. Thanks, Mark

Database Map on Free Group -Not sure if this is a bug or feature
#misc
#suggestion
Bob Bellizzi
I was experimenting with my specialists' database and
I exported it from my Premium group as a json I imported it into an experimental free group When it finally completed processing it showed a map at the top. Is this a new freebe or an accident? I would rather have the map or list mode selectable at two levels. The owner should be able to configure the map as optional or unavailable as part of the DB design. If designed as configurable, the user should be able to select map or no map when using the DB. Finally, I think the DB Map should be a Premium/Enterprise feature. And scrolling the DB in Map Mode needs the column titles to be fixed so they don't disappear. This would make the DB is almost usable. -- Bob Bellizzi

In the Members Manual, it gives the impression that this will be done for any email service if the box is checked. Which is the correct interpretation? It applies regardless of the email service. It replaces the Message-Id header with a new one that we generate (we rename the original Message-Id header to X-Orig-Message-Id). Hope this helps. Mark
