Group creation page Visibility dropdown reset bug
#bug
Hi Mark,
In the group creation page, if there is a syntax error in the Email Address value and the data validation checker gets invoked after clicking on "Create Group", the error is correctly identified but unlike the Email Address and Group Description fields whose values are preserved, the Visibility dropdown gets reset to the default value and it can be easily missed.
I went to create a test group earlier today and after ensuring I selected the correct hidden/private setting and adding the group description, I finally added the email address -but I unintentionally used an underscore instead of a dash in the email- and clicked on Create; I got the email address error and That address is not valid blurb so I fixed it and resubmitted, and it seemed all went fine now. A few minutes later I got back a group creation denial message because the group wasn't created with the hidden/private setting. Since I knew I had selected that, I went back and retried but this time I paid attention to the Visibility box and it does indeed reset if there's a syntax error in the email address.
Cheers,
Christos

Resend of pending member notice not logged in member activity log
#bug
Resending of the pending member notice is still logged in the group activity log, but not in the member activity log. It should be, and IIRC, used to be.

Hello Mark,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
thank you for so quick response and action. The reason, why Robert and me canot see the element you've added is because style="display: none;" really means it's not intended to be shown and even screen-readers skip such elements. I see you're using Bootstrap. There should be a class made just for this purpose called sr-only. If it wouldn't be included in your Bootstrap version, such class definition is easy to find. So please try to rewrite the styling to <hr class="sr-only"> Thank you very much. Jan

Oh, forgive me, you said "sorting," and you're referring to the listing order, not the list itself. I'll check it again.

My activity-log search dropdown is working fine.
What do you mean by "when I select +owner from the drop down menu"? Which dropdown are you seeing that in? I don't see any such search criterion. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones.

Seems like, from what I could tell, is that you need to have something in the search box for the actions drop down menu to take effect. Maybe it's not a bug, but something that could be formatted to work differently.

When viewing the activity log I select various sorting options from the drop down menu but the listing does not change.
It shows all activity when first opened but when I select +owner from the drop down menu it still shows all activity. Mick

While I understand the suggestion, it could lead to even more requests for further differentiation, viz: the age line for "kids", younger than 16 or through 16, the gender claimed or other personal selective identity. This could even vary depending on the geography, the family or any one of several factors.I'm with Bob on this. There could be so many variations that different groups want specific allowances for. Anthony Angelo wrote: "The current count is nice as it gives me the number of families attending,"The count is for the number of attendees/individuals rather than families. In my recent testing, I did not look at options for bringing guests. I've just tried this though and see that it keeps count towards the limit of individuals attending (rather than families). Combing the number of guests with the option to request additional information by the organiser (e.g. how many of your guests are children?) would allow flexibility without overly complicating the system.

The HR tag is not working for me when I am viewing a thread. Could this be visible? It would help screen magnifier users too if it were visible to everyone. But when I go into a thread, the HR tag is not showing up between messages in the thread, running NVDA and FireFox.

Changing a non-mod's posting status logged as "changed moderator permissions"
#bug
Summary: changing a non-moderator member's posting status resulted in an extra group activity log entry that his "moderator privileges" were changed.
Details: I changed a non-moderator member's posting status to "overrride - moderated" in a non-moderated group. Two activity log entries were created, one of them correct ("changed xyz's posting status") but the other incorrect ("changed xyz's moderator privileges"). Also, neither action was recorded in the member's activity log. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones.

Folder Notification - Add full path

My group has lots of documents spanning years. I try to manage that in the Files section by creating folders that contain folders that contain folders.
The file notification shows the full path of where the file is uploaded, but the new folder added notification doesn't. It would be very helpful if all folder notifications contained the full path so that we can easily find them. Thanks Beth

How about making ‘Other members of your group’ the default setting in Profile Privacy?I think it should stay the way it is. I don't need another opt-out to deal with. Having to opt-in, as now, seems much more apt to make sure people know that they're allowing others to see their information, not just moderators. Duane
