Is it possible to create a preview of a link?
#suggestion
It would be nice if when we post the URL of a link the web interface automatically created a web preview of that link ( like facebook and Yahoo! do). This can be discarded when it doesn't make sense

Re: Problem with Search Function Plus a Request
I tried using the + between words on a search. It did limit the results to posts where both words existed, but not always next to each other. Without it, the results were any file that had either

Re: Problem with Search Function Plus a Request
When I use the Search feature and my term has multiple words, I use a plus sign between the words so that “it” knows I want those two words to be right next to each other in the search results. I

Re: +owner Message Reply
I would like to see g.io allow "listname+owner@groups.io" to post via
email.
Maybe the email would be held in moderation queue since the address
isn't technically a member of the group, but

Re: Problem with Search Function
Shal, you really need to look up the meaning of "strawman." I doubt that there are many users who do not use message view who even know that message numbers exist. They're a weirdness as far as I'm

Re: Problem with Search Function
Brian,
In both Message View and Expanded Message View there's a separate search box for search by message number.
It is sometimes handy, but I don't think it is important enough to merit its own UI

Re: Problem with Search Function
J_catlady,
Just to be clear, I'm not saying what I said in an accusatory manner or with the idea that it's a design flaw. I'd definitely have to believe it's a bug, and a huge one.

Re: Problem with Search Function
The following observation is not meant to start an argument, because if it's possible to search by message number in other views it should also be in threads view.
I've seen a lot of "Beta people"

Well, I'll see your "think" and raise to "know." There is not a rational person whose used search functions on forums sites or broader web search engines over the years that would expect a search in

"updated" column in database row gives date of database edit, not of row edit
#bug
I updated a database just now, and in the "updated" column, every row now displays the time of the edit instead of the time of the last row-edit.

Re: Problem with Search Function
Brian,
Something has broken in the Search box in Threads view.
It used to be that it would bring up first a list of matches in the thread subjects, followed by a list of matches in the thread

Re: Problem with Search Function
Brian,
If you're in threads view, the search function is actually searching thread TITLES, not messages within the thread. I think that's a big mistake and have brought it up before.

Re: "updates" no longer a required group, or can people unsubscribe from it?
I don't remember for sure if an automatic subscription to that group was removed from the sign up flow or not. I know there was some discussion about it several months ago, maybe even a year. As far

More color choices for hashtags
#suggestion
Would be great to have more colors for hashtags so we can assign a unique color to each hashtag for specific categories.
The splashes of color look really lovely on groups that require hashtags. So
