Group features

I am missing a nice feature from 88groups which was to set a publish date for posts. I understand you may not want to enable it for regular conversations, but for groups it's really convenient. On week-ends of before holidays, one could for instance prepare and schedule release of several entries during the following week(s).

Any chance to see this being implemented?

The other thing is, while it is possible for authors to make changes to their own main postings, the way to get there is not obvious. The only way is is to select [Write your own post!] and click the little pencil against each entry under Manage Posts. I guess a [Manage Posts] button would be more intuitive.

I set up a group on 88 Groups but I guess I didn't have the mental fortitude to understand how to use it.  Other people were quite capable in setting up their groups but I never got past an initial posting.  At least I'm having some limited success with C-Pod Groups.

There is a way to edit our current posts you say?

Tell me more...
