June 12, 2020

• CHANGE: We are now only including the first two attachments for every message in a digest, to prevent oversized digests.
• CHANGE: Images in digests are now resized using a JPEG quality of 75.
• CHANGE: Change the order of evaluation so that a member set to MT is evaluated before a group's moderate first message setting.
• CHANGE: Move the Group Email Addresses block on the Group home page.
• CHANGE: Update the /mutehashtag URLs in message footers.

June 5, 2020

• CHANGE: Updates to the members/owners manuals from Nina.
• CHANGE: Photo thumbnails, including the single photo view, are now resized to 2048 on their longest dimension, as opposed to 720 previously. The JPEG quality was also decreased to 90. This only applies to photos uploaded from now on.
• INTERNAL: Re-wrote the program that sent daily summaries to make it much more efficient; the old version would sometimes take more than an hour to complete a run (and is run every hour). This was causing some people to miss summaries, especially those with America/Chicago timezones.
• INTERNAL: Fix issue with the GoAMZ MultiDel() call not working on S3 to remove files and photos when deleting a group.
• NEW: Hashtag list view shows mute/follow duration. Also, redid the mute/follow hashtag screens.
• CHANGE: For new donation requests, we have changed the fee structure: the Groups.io fee is 2%, in addition to Stripe's credit card fees.
• CHANGE: Display the default 'Elephant' group icon on the mobile groups page for groups without an icon set (replacing the group/pie chart icons).
• SYSADMIN: Upgraded the TLS certificates for the *.groups.io domains to use Let's Encrypt certs instead of the older Gandi issued cert, to fix the Safari cert warning.

May 29, 2020

• INTERNAL: Work towards supporting notifications.
• BUGFIX: The timezone listed when viewing an event or in the calendar popup sometimes did not match the text when creating the event (the UTC offset was the same, just the city names could be different, but correct).
• SYSADMIN: Prep work for adding a second email server.
• INTERNAL: Sped up deletion of photos and files when deleting a group.
• CHANGE: Formatting changes in the subgroup listing page.
• NEW: You can now toggle between the existing gallery view and a new list view in the Hashtags page.
• INTERNAL: Re-wrote several web templates to address some technical debt issues.
