I’m no database developer but un-defined fields could cause problems as they would be likely contain incompatible data from group to group, i.e. numbers, text, etc. Normally, when setting up field

I don't think that any of these can be mandatory. Not everyone has a title, a first name, or even a last name. -- Christopher W. <lists@...>

Something that I just thought of. Instead of having dedicated fields added, how about having 5(?) extra fields in the member record that could be used by group management for whatever purpose they

Email Distribution Groups – General observations The main purpose of such a group is to enable us to be able to reach all our subscribers (also customers) from a single email address with messages

The logs cycled before I was able to look at any possible digest delivery (I've increased the log retention on those logs now). But I went through the code and I don't see how that could have

I could do without both the “active topics” and the ugly hashtag thingy. I get really tired of someone trying to direct what I do and don’t read and engage with. This seems to be happening on a

Mark; How about giving the Admin of a group the right to upgrade the home page? I understand people's reluctance to change something that they "see no value" but for those of us with groups where it

Will it be an option or mandatory? I still have the same reservations about the new page layout as when it was originally announced. Thanks, Duane

If it was just a mistake then no problem. At least we understand the discrepancy between the changelog and what actually changed. Hopefully the changes to the homepage and the Zoom integration can be

I think I've received a couple of "digests" containing only a single message in the past week.

I've seen the previous discussions on the hompage changes and the recent release and rollback of the zoom integration. I am still perplexed by the fact that these changes were included in the

The new home page is still only on beta and a couple other groups. I'd like to roll it out everywhere, but when I proposed that awhile ago, there was ... consternation. I would still like to roll it

Under the heading of "there are no guarantees in life," I'd add that Google has shuttered (or marginalized) well over a hundred services. And some are on life support. If they decide groups doesn't

Hi Andy, My understanding of „new group home page“ is that this change is only applied to new groups - i.e. any groups created from today onwards. I can imagine that some group owners wouldn‘t
