Thanks Brenda, since I explained what the database is used for on the various craft type groups yesterday, I hate to repeat myself again. I will be more than happy to go into as much detail as

Mark, Perhaps this question is academic? If this page of instructions is always shown in the context of a particular Groups.io group, then that name could be used rather than a placeholder. With only

I just changed a moderator's posting settings to post any time. In 'Members' I selected the member. I then selected 'Actions' -> 'Override - Not Moderated'. The 'Verify Action' reads: "Set to allow

Mark, Perfect. https://groups.io/org/groupsio/shalstest https://groups.io/org/groupsio/GroupManagersForum -- Shal

Judy, That started with Mark: https://groups.io/org/groupsio/beta/thread/15266 A few messages down that thread I tried to list some of the distinct features of Yahoo Groups' database, and databases

Linda, Hmm... I hadn't looked at that way, but you're right. The Description available in an event isn't as limited as the one in Yahoo Groups was. So for many purposes where text files are used it

Trish, I agree. I suggest that the file upload have a "Schedule" button. The button creates a calendar event that sends the file, or a link to the file, as its reminder. That would allow you to

I now get a nice neat picture - central and the right ratios! KnyttWytch (so much to do, so little

I had not changed the initial image resizing code. It was trying to resize all cover photos to 900x300, without preserving the aspect ratio. Now it preserves the aspect ratio while resizing. Can you

That's what I was looking at - the links are pretty obvious in the main area. Then there's the drop-down that shows pages (I'm assuming that if there's a link to some external page it would not show

Hi I created a wiki in Groups.io for 1A-Travelzine (I am a moderator.) Yes, I agree “home” could be confusing. However, in my wiki, that is an index page to the subsidiary pages. If you click on

The `only "wiki" I've used, AFAIK, is Wikipedia. So - when I click on the wiki link on the home page of the group - there are 3 words across the top - Beta, Wiki, and apparently the page title. Wiki

I certainly agree that it makes lots of sense to keep the database feature seperate from the Wiki feature and to make the database tool like what folks are used to on Yahoo Groups of old with

pnrfan, You may be on to something there, using the calendar. I had done a test a few days ago to see what the Reminder looks like when emailed. It seems to contain the text from the Description

I'm going to play around with the calendar feature for this and see if it can meet my groups' needs.

Brenda (and Mark), I vote for a database facility. Mainly because I think I know what that is. A 'wiki'? I know what wikipedia is but beyond that I really don't know what a 'wiki' is in the context of

Add me in as a second vote for a database.

JohnF, I see what you mean. https://groups.io/org/groupsio/shalstest Apparently it goofs up on images that are too close to square aspect ratio. No way the result should be rescaled by a different

Mark, eh? I think the returned JSON includes a "moderatorStatus" field, with content "OWNER" or "MODERATOR" when present. The field is absent from members' records. At least it did when I examined

Another possible compromise: Let mods rename their tabs as they see fit.
