Deleting Group problem possibly
#bug
Armando <armando.l.vias@...>
Hi. When I tried to delete a group, I was returned to the messages page. I pressed the delete group button and confirmed the group deletion and when I confirmed it, it returned me to the message page. I checked the link when I was confirming the deletion before pressing the delete group button. The link directed back to the messages page. Has anyone experienced this?

Re: Footer placement
Maria
On Y! the footer came after the links, and the links on individual emails were sorted horizontally not vertically. So you could get to them easily and quickly - as they help you participate in your group. On mobile - to see the links after the footer on individual emails, involves a substantial amount of scrolling each time to get to your action links. The footer is repetitive and static, yet it has to be there. The links are necessary in order to take actions that help people participate in the group. On mobile they get buried by a footer even when the footer is only a few sentences long. Especially on the iphones with smaller screens. For those reasons, I personally prefer links first and footer last. Maria

Personally it doesn't matter to me where it goes. But like Anita, I would like the option of removing some of the links at the end of the emails. My group members don't need all those links. Thanks for all you're doing for IO Groups Tami Davis

Subject: [beta] Footer placement Hi All,
You may have noticed that I changed the placement of the group footer within the overall message footer. Previously, it appeared before the links. Now it appears at the bottom, after the links. I did this by request from someone who has a long group footer, which definitely works better after all the links. But I've received requests to return the footer to the previous position. So, I ask the group, where do you think it should go? Thanks, Mark

Re: Footer placement
I think the group footer should follow the message(s), then the site footer. Makes sense to me for them to be in that configuration due to priority.

I, on the other hand, value having as much information as possible about my group and groups in general, so I would like these links to be retained

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.

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
