Re: Donation fee change
#update
I would add, that our group hosts a couple of high school dances, like the Prom, where members of our group might pay $25, and non-members pay $30 or #35. If calendar RSVP'ing could allow non-members to RSVP with approval, that would be beneficial. If this were a feature that was usable as described, that would possibly double or triple the money in fees for GIO for our group (as mentioned above).Thanks much for considering.

Should the photo notification setting be separate from the album notification setting? My gut says no, but want to make sure. Also, I forgot database notifications, which don't exist anywhere right now. Would you want to know when a row was added, or just when a database was created? My thinking with aggregation is that when an email notification is generated, I'll wait N minutes to send it out to see if any additional, similar email notifications are generated. If so, I'll combine them. Thanks, Mark

I don't anticipate adding something like this, as it'd require tracking pixels on the emails we send out. Which I'm not a fan of. Mark

> I think also when I'm adding these new per-moderator notifications, I will add 2 per-subscriber notifications: notifications when someone likes a message, and notifications when someone posts to a chat their subscribed to, but not currently viewing. Mark
This and now and then, I remember an eGroups function, called, 'Traffic.' Rather than see Likes, etc, a month of data was given to include a bar hraph, about the posts. What posts drew 73% of the members viewership, 42, 18, whatever... was a main aspect. Which pisters derw what Reply-count or caused a Topus repky count if repkies were to their original or not. Mods can use this to really see what trends are of more interest, (who to make a mod,) and divide their research/work/support, proportionately, to drive list quality and audience appreciation. Like databases, which I liked, (and for which I developed tricks to extend the 10 column limits etc,) few owners made use of it, so it was dropped. But I even sometimes pointed out to membership what seemed popular. They seemed to make use of it to join in or support their 'causes' more ardantly. I'd hope you wouldn't develope it and give it only to Enterprises, but truely, no Enterprise should be without it. BillSF9c

Hey, J,
I've made it pretty clear more than once. I feel that Database operability is more important that all the effort on Notifications. -- Bob Bellizzi

YES! As I also requested in my message 20604. along with a couple of other handy dandy
changes to Databases, viz I would like to get some feedback on my other suggestions for Database changes that were made in the
#Suggestion message number 24250, especially the ability to "force view mode or map mode upon opening by the database owner and also as a permanent setting. Is there a way that the column titles would stay in place when one scrolls down through a database? -- Bob Bellizzi

<slight shudder>Totally agree with the shudder factor. I would object strongly to members being notified of any deletion of their content. That's up to moderators. Notifying them of edits to their messages is one thing; deletions is another thing altogether.

Two reasons; I don't want anything I do to tidy up (say) Photos to generate a blizzard of notifications (even to just one member), and I don't want to have to fend off the "why did you edit, move, delete, whatever such and such" messages that are likely to accrue as a result of a rationalisation process. With Files and Photos counting towards a group's storage allowance then judgement over what to keep and what to discard has to rest with group moderators and territorial disputes over what material is retained and what isn't must not be encouraged, and sending members detailed notifications about what has happened to their material is, IMHO, just inviting those disputes to happen.

Mark,
2) Should those actions be included in the new per-moderatorDefinitely yes. 1) Should I add those as notifications that group members can sendI'd generally say no, except add/modify photo album. And as mentioned before, for those that don't post I'd like the member whose content is affected (including deletes) to receive an off-list notice. ... I will add 2 per-subscriber notifications: notifications whenThis one probably needs two options: notify me of any like, and notify me of a like on my content. Given that Likes are intended as light-weight alternatives to "me too" postings, we can expect (hope?) that there would be a lot of them. This one is probably the poster child for aggregating notices. and notifications when someone posts to a chat their subscribed to,That's a good idea you have they're. Shal
