Maintenance

I've been trying to find a way to coax a listing of all taxonomy terms for g.d.o groups. Thus far, it has been in vain. Do any of you know how this might be achieved without writing a module, or patching core? The top-10 list at the right side of a group is just not enough info for a group admin to keep things streamlined and organized.

Ideas? Sogg-gestions?

Might this be a help? http://drupal.org/node/16489

I upgraded modr8 and OG to latest DRUPAL-5 versions. Please post any anomolies here. Mostly minor bug fixes.

In the group details block in upper right, there is now a search box which initiates a full text search of content within the group. this is a nice feature, and a long time coming. i am using the views_search filter in Views along with og specific argument to achieve this. og now comes with this feature in 5.x version.

I made a couple of minor changes to TOC module and installed it on this site. This module automatically injects a table of contents block into your node when you author using properly section your post using header tags (i.e. h3, h4, etc). For an example, see the about page. This module works nicely with markdown syntax, which makes it easy to author structured documents like this.

I installed the freelinking module which lets users link to other pages that might or might not exist. I disabled the CamelCase feature of that module so you have to use the double brackets. See the help underneath input formats in order to learn more about the syntax.

Please keep you eyes open for formatting/filtering irregularities.

I have added two nice features that are available only to editors. They are

• diffs of node content. a nice companion to wikipages especially. a new diff tab shows up on node views if there are revisions and if you have permission.
• An Activity report which helps prune inactive groups.

Here is the process I am using when I see groups whose missions overlap too much:

• send an email to all group members using the Email tab. some example text:

As part of standard pruning, this group is closing. Please continue the conversation in the more active High Performance group - http://groups.drupal.org/high-performance. All posts will be moved there. Please adjust your notifications/feed subscriptions accordingly.

• delete the less active group, and choose the option to move content to the target group. Go slowly here, and get it right.

I think that sometime on Jan. 1, g.d.o stopped sending e-mail when a group had a new post.

if you look at http://groups.drupal.org/seattle
the sort order is messed up. You would expect the node for the january DUG to be at the top, but it is preceded by old nodes. is this because the old nodes have had more recent comments? While i could see a use for that, i think that for dugs having a "most recent at top" would be best.

Also wondering about the site wide posts (like the "bug down" post being sticky at top? how long does that last? If you have a smaller browser window and you come look at the Seattle DUG page you would think that there have been no recent posts that are
