Groups.drupal.org

Recently, there was a Poll put up in our local group to select which day of the week to have the local meet-ups. Since the Poll Module will only allow for a single radio button answer ... this brings up the question ... why doesn't Groups.Drupal.org us the Advanced Poll Module?

In my specific example, the use of Approval Voting would have been more practical for our vote than just pick one.

Is there some reason Adv Poll Module is not used? ... or is it as simple as no one has asked?

BTW, count this as me asking for the Advanced Poll Module!

Thanks.

I don't use OG, so I don't know if this is a minor change or a major one. But, after reading http://groups.drupal.org/node/6438#comment-20339 , it occured to me that "subscribe" is a confusing term. Calling it "Join Group" might be better.

Ok... strange question but is there a dedicated group for the OG Groups Module or is that just kind of part of this main group for all questions and such?

I was looking at the Call for install profile ideas wiki page and noticed it had comments.

While there’s no link to leave the first comment, if you go http://groups.drupal.org/comment/reply/5653/ you can comment.

When I try that with the Unconference wiki page in the Newspaper on Drupal group or the TinyMCE FAQ in the TinyMCE Development group I get an error saying, “This discussion is closed: you can't post new comments.”

I have asked this on main drupal and cant seem to get any answers. Since I am trying to do excatly as this site does hopefully some can help me. I imagine this must be a common problem. But I cant seem to find an documentation.

I cant seem to get pages (pagination) on organic group home pages. I did not do anything special.

Create a type called group content type. no special fields.

Enabled that as the home page. allowed blog and other content types.

When I post I see on the main page that it honors the post settings (I have set it at 3 and it creates pages)

When creating a job in Groups, it posts them on the sideboard, and then also places them in the center column. For those of us who create jobs that can telecommute from anywhere, we have to sign up for every local group, and the local group gets spammed in the center column with our stuff. I figure the local groups would rather have the focus on what they are working on rather than a ton of us pounding them with job offers. And we're only allowed to choose 4 locales at a time.

So I suggest the following:
1. removing job listings from the main column.
2. Creating a new taxonomy for development groups vs locative groups (maybe broken down by country.)
3. Allowing job descriptions to be posted across all locations in said taxonomy with one click rather than signing up for a million groups.

OR

have a preference setting allowing group admins to choose wether job listings can be posted to the main section of their group.

Thoughts?

Actually, the title says it all - would be great to have the diff.module enabled for wiki pages, and to give the permission to view revisions to all group members. That would increase the usability of the "groups wiki" significantly, as it's currently not possible to track the revisions and changes of a certain page (at least for non-site-admins).

One thing that's coming up in the Drupal Dojo group, one of the most active groups here, is the need to start sharing administrative rights with more users. There are times when I'm offline for a few days, and the group could use a administrative assistance. For instance, we're trying to run a new "patch spotlight" feature which involves setting a sticky node for each new patch. It would be great to let add1sun do this herself.

I'm interested and willing to put some development cycles towards this if need be. However, I also have a sneaking suspicion that this might be already possible and I'm just missing it. Anyone know?

I recently started the group vBulletin and I accidentally added a term I which I no longer need. When I try to edit any of my terms I just get an error that I'm not authorized to view the page.

Am I missing something somewhere that allows me to do that?
