Re: groups.io site
Steph Mathews <smathews@...>
Hi Marvin,
I have no problems logging into http://Groups.io. My suggestion would be to
send an email to support@Groups.io with
the error you get when you log in. I hope that this is helpful.

Subject: [beta] groups.io site Hi, for the past day or two, not able to go to the groups.io site, says cannot find server or fix connection, internet explorer 11, windows 10, and says dns server not available. And on firefox, says it cannot find the server at https://groups.io, cannot find server. So any ideas. Is it something at my end, or is mark doing updates, or maintanence, or worst of all a denial of service attack. Any ideas. Ps: can receive and send groups e-mail, but cannot go to any features of the site, groups, the main site, login, etc. Marvin.

Re: Something's up with Signatures
Brian Vogel <britechguy@...>
Mark, I keep my "signature stash" in plain text and format it once pasted. I could definitely have some extra weird HTML somewhere in there because I'm using the WYSIWYG editor in Groups.io to format it. I have done "paste overs" as well. What I can't figure out is why the editor screen renders these things one way while the actual forum software is rendering them another. I will be happy to do whatever you'd like me to do in order to figure that out (if that's of any interest).

Re: Something's up with Signatures
Hi Brian, Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. I checked one of your sigs, and there's a bunch of extra HTML in it. Did you cut and paste the sig from somewhere else? You can see the extra HTML by switching to the Code View in the editor (button directly to the left of the Question Mark button). Mark
