Title: New Yahoo Format
Post by: Firebird on March 26, 2005, 04:04:10 AM
Looks like there is a new look to the yahoo groups.. just signed in via a browser and it looks different.. guess that's what is messing up PGOffline for now?..  :(

Yup, and I can't stand the listing of newest messages first. ARG!!!

Not wild about it myself.

Whats worse, of course, is that if they subsequently change this it'll bugger up PGO (again).

Cheers,

Wilson.

I suspect that will be the case, Wilson - I do not know anyone who likes the changes - and most people are letting yahoo know it. If they don't want to loose a big chunk of their users - they'll have to listen.

Hopefully you have good version control in place so when Yahoo switches it back, it's not a complete re-write to what it was... yeah, like they'll go back... right...  ???

Al,

You can configure each group to use the old or new format.

What concerns me is that I expect there may be further changes on the way as Yahoo receives feedback from users.

Cheers,

Wilson.

Thanks to Wilson and Alex for a prompt fix, I didn't get a chance to install it until yesterday and it works fine for me, at this stage I don't need to add new groups but we have the workaround if I do. Great Stuff.

Imagine if this was a "big company" product, how long would we be waiting?
