Add Numeric Type to Databases
I would like to see a numeric type added to the data types supported in a database. Sorting in numeric order does not work if using a text data type. For example, text sorts numbers as 1, 10, 2, 3, 4 and so on.
This should include support for both integer and floating numbers. Sort must be a numeric sort. -- Gerald

Re: Calendar: Allow "Last [day of week] of month" for repeating events

Ditto- except to appear on days of the month, not dates.
First and Third Sunday for instance. When I set up monthly repeats it defaults to the 'date' used and then applies it to a week day- not pretty. Thanks d

Set up the event for the first day of the (following) month and repeat monthly, then set it to send a reminder 1 day before it occurs. Also, don't send a notice when the event does occur. That should do what you want unless I misunderstood something. Duane

New SEARCH feature works great on my computer on both the DIRECTORY and the MEMBERS LIST.
However, on my android phone the MEMBERS LIST search works great but the SEARCH button does not appear on the DIRECTORY screen....is it supposed to, or is that not supported on android phones? Chuck

I would love to see something like this as well. One of my groups has something that goes out on the last day of the month, and right now I'm having to send it manually. The only way I can think to get it on the calendar is to set it up for each month individually, on that month's last day, then have it repeat on a yearly basis. But that still leaves the problem of February. It would be a great help to have a last-day-of-the-month option.

I have an event that is held on the last Tuesday of every month, but unfortunately, I cannot create a repeating event to cover the entire year because the options to repeat currently are on the number'd day of the month, or the same week of every month (ex: 4th Tuesday of the month). Some months may have 4 weeks with that day of the week, while others may have 5. Bonus points if you can easily exclude certain occurrences of the event during the event creation. (Ex: Last Tuesday of the month for all months except June & December)

Does this search only look at those members who have made themselves visible on the directory for other members?Visibility shouldn't matter for a group Owner/Moderator, but there still has to be some profile content. Specifically, if a subscriber has neither an established Display Name, nor a User Name, nor a group profile, you won't be able to find him via a Directory search...for the simple reason that there is nothing in his Directory entry by which to establish a match.

A further suggestion if I may... Can we get the search on the directory to work the same as on the member list please? It does some wlldcard searching on the member list but not on the directory. In the examples I gave above, my search for Adam in the directory gives me 3 results but the same search term on the member list gives me 4 (it finds the surname Adams). Thanks, Andy

You can now search the member directory.As a group owner I can see all of my 984 members in the directory. However if I search for a name that I can clearly see on the screen (Adrian, for example) I get no results. Searching for Adam gives me one name when I have 3 members called Adam and one with the surname Adams. Does this search only look at those members who have made themselves visible on the directory for other members? If so, then as an owner, it doesn't help me at all. Andy

Is this feature supposed to ignore the email address field when doing a search?

I think the #cal-notice hashtag as a special notice might accomplish
what I want on both counts. I'll let you know how it works.

We use a weekly cal-summary and it lists the next 10 events. I must admit I haven't tried the bi-weekly or monthly to see if the numbers differ. Andy
