I'm not exactly sure I entirely understand the question. If you're suggesting a feature whereby that owner could establish additional group-specific subscriber requirements (a web-based

Ken, Have you seen this topic about a test version of better functionality? Give that a try and see if it suits your needs. Shal

I think having these options would be confusing to people trying to join groups. Why does one group have a join button and another one not? etc. However, I agree that the current method causes

Captions are readable by screen readers, so are accessible. Pictures of text are about the least accessible thing. I’d be delighted to have captions. I’d use it in most of my groups. For example,

Shal, Why not use a photo editor (e.g. photoshop or other) to generate the text overlay on the photo prior to uploading it. I did that to set up a big red cover photo on our Yahoo grooup with "We've

hi. First of all, I don’t want to be accused of hijacking a thread. But could you not also say that group owners/moderators should be able to control what the member has to give when they subscribe?

Mark, It would be nice to have a text box on the Cover Photo tab of the Settings page that would place a caption under the group's cover photo. E.g. a photo credit. It could be

Yes, posts crossing, I was confused because you used the word "override." I totally agree with you on needing controls over PM'ing. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the

Walking back, since you used the word "override" I assumed you were talking about the topic/hashtag change. I totally agree with you about the control over PMs and even started a separate thread about

my post also refers to the email option when clicking on a profile. I dont have time to read all of beta and all the back and forth that goes on with every change. I do agree that I dont want to

Hi Ro, I think your group settings won't be over-ridden unless you specifically sent a hashtag accordingly and apply it to a topic. This does not cause any loss of group control. (Caveat: I still

This really annoys me. I dont WANT my group settings over ridden! Why, every time there is a change, do we have to fight and discuss endlessly for there to be a group setting to control this stuff,

Duane, I agree, that would be a good enhancement. Until it works itself to the top of the "to do" list I have been using the "Ethernet" graph in Window's Task Manager to ensure data is being

I would also like to see this. While doing some testing yesterday, I was uploading some really big files, 270-500 MB. During the upload, all I saw was a box in my browser saying "Sending request to
