Mark, I did delete the draft.
But don't you agree that it is a bug that we can't send or open the Draft? Either it should have sent when I clicked "Send", or I should be able to open it, view its contents, and copy it to a new message. Did you fix that bug? Or are you letting it remain? Andy

Re: Retain original update field data during database export/import

I'd like to be able to move a database from one group to another but retain the original update field date/time information. This is for a database that tracks membership in a neighborhood directory, and the date/time of the last update for each record is important to us. This should be fixed. Thanks, Mark

I think my group was also basic at the time the member left (we upgraded shortly after), and it was around the same timeframe you mention. Maybe has to do with maintaining records for "past members" in premium vs. basic groups? This should be fixed now. Thanks, Mark

while testing the Chat feature in the app I've found that I am not receiving Web/App notifications on the Web UI or the App for new chat messages. Regards Andy

Some files missing from export
#bug
Every month I do a full export of a couple of my groups. I do this by going to Settings->Export Group Data, checking all the boxes, and clicking the Export Group Data button.
This month, both exports are missing _some_ files from the Files section. The exports are missing .pdf, .jpg, and .jpeg files from the downloaded zip file. The companion .json files are still present in the download, but just the files are missing. I tried it again a couple days later, but the results are the same. Gilbert

I've changed it so that if you select a member notice when sending a message to a member (or members), we now log a pointer to that member notice, instead of showing the entire message in the activity log. This only applies to new messages, and it doesn't discriminate if you select a member notice and then edit it, it will still point to the member notice in the log and not show the (edited) message. Cheers,

Re: Uncheck of Auto Follow Replies in Advanced Preferences is not saved
#bug
>>>
For Auto Follow Replies the manual states "This checkbox is selected automatically when you select Following Only" but to me that means that it is initially selected to try and be helpful and the fact that a check-box is there means I should be able to uncheck it. If it's not supposed to be possible to uncheck it then it's pretty pointless being there and the comment in the manual is superfluous <<< Agreed, it's not working quite right. Even if I personally don't see why someone who is FO wouldn't want to AFR their own replies, I agree that the way it behaves now, it's like "I'm always on as if the checkbox is disabled". I think this is a case of the AdvPrefs UI-display/defaults init code doing its thing regardless without checking what AFR was previously set-to or changed-to. Or it could be the uncheck is actually saved on the db but then the reopen resets it anyway overwriting it, maybe in the validation code part. Cheers, Christos

Re: New Locked Topic member notice

Anyone can attempt to send a message to a topic that was locked days or months or years ago. If the active member notice has changed in the interim, it most likely bears no relationship at all as to why these older topics were locked (if it still did, why would you change it?). So I suggest no....unless you can somehow "save" the associated member notice with the topic. Unless you want to create a second "type" of Member Notice for this purpose, I suggest no. I expire topics after 60 days for no other reason than I don't want people replying to something many years old after having accidentally inverted the sort order of the archive. Again, I suggest that topics locked based on a "timeout" of any kind calls for a separate member notice...if you want to go there at all. I don't see the advantage of this. If you want to explain why the topic is locked with the first message, just say why in the message. Generally, I'd prefer that we stop while we're still on relatively solid ground. My $0.02, Bruce

Re: HTML formatting being stripped from Calendar Event notices
#bug
On Thu, Jun 3, 2021 at 7:21 AM Yusuf Leo Schuman <lschuman1@...> wrote: A group I maintain (BowlOfSaki@groups.io) is used to post daily messages to group members. The descriptions of these events are HTML formatted. Beginning 5/27, this HTML formatting is being stripped from notices sent to group members, and from Messages visible in the web UI. On May 27th, I changed how some system notices, including #cal-notice messages were generated. Previously, they had ignored the group's Normalize HTML Emails setting, but after the change, they were no longer ignoring that setting. Your group has that checked, so you started seeing the result of that. I've restored the previous behavior, and all new #cal-notice messages sent to your group should have the formatting.

RSVP event organisers cannot contact responders
#bug
Hi Mark,
I was going to raise this as a suggestion but then I see the manual says it should already be possible so it's here as a bug instead :-) When I create an RSVP event, the person's email address that goes into the 'Organiser email' field (the event organiser) is unable to contact the responders as it says in the manual as the Actions button is not displayed.

As usual, questions can generate more questions! Do you mean in addition to the usual rejection message or in place of? We use the 'locked' setting on the #poll-notice hashtag to 'encourage' people to use the web UI and vote online. A locked topic notice for a poll would therefore need to be worded different to effectively say 'go online to respond' whereas a normal locked topic response would be 'you can no longer respond'. How do we differentiate? If a poll topic is locked and the poll is closed, what happens then? Regards Andy
