Well hardly, but thank you Michael! I literally bumble my way along, learning a bit here and there as I go.
I think the smartest thing I do is ...try real hard not to mess up my own site. Not exactly genius material, but a good practical goal. lol! ;D

So Paul, would this then work?:
if I only want this function available in those groups owned by myself or my profile-admins, I can then activate the module for those quotas only, and the result would be that for any groups owned by 'regular' quota members, those group owners would not have the ability to message all group members on their own...correct? And if I wanted 'some' of them to be able to do that, I'd clone their existing quota and give it a new name, and activate the group message for it, ...do I have that right?
thanks!

Awesome!!!! JR Team strikes again!!
Hmm..I don't suppose we will have the setting to allow us to set groups individually to allow this or not- since though I 'own'/created most of my site's groups, there are a couple of group owners that I wouldn't necessarily want to give that power to. Is it possible to incorporate the ability to set it for each group individually?
We had this in Ning2, fwiw, but it was "Allow a group member to send message to all group members". But that obviously presented some problems concerning self-promotion on the sly, but now we'll keep that in check mostly by allowing this ability for group OWNERS only.
If not, no biggie- I suppose I could just JOIN all the groups owned by members other than myself, so that i would be aware of receiving any 'messages to group'.
Another thought- will this new feature allow us site admins or the site OWNER to send a message to all members of a group as well?- or do I actually have to be the group owner to do that?
--This is terrific news Paul- so glad you guys created this for us!

How to remove cometchat from database?
Using Jamroom
FWIW I had some various glitches with my Cometchat early on when I first got it installed, and again after a chat update many months later, but my overall experience with their support was not so bad.
They always responded to my communications within 24 hrs (they are in the opposite time zone) and they mostly did perform some action every day on my glitches, one by one, until everything got sorted out. I have not had any chat problems for about 7 months now. Needless to say though, I'm not much looking forward to when i'll need to update it again.
Curtis, that sounds awful, very glad I haven't had trouble like that with CC!

Editor Embed Media Update Bug
Ning To Jamroom
OMG... When will I learn??
Funny thing is, I do a complete Integrity Check every 4 or 5 days as a routine to head off such issues before they even get noticed...and I hope that doing that is not inadvisable to do routinely?
I should have done this immediately when I noticed the embed problem.
For some reason I thought that the system runs its own type of integrity check every time a jr module update gets installed by us... I guess that's not true? I read that someplace here about a year ago.
I feel bad about the pointless time you spent that could have been better spent on other things, Michael- I just hope Curtis' issue is fixed as easily now.
Hmmm...would it be great if we could set our sites to do an Integrity Check automatically every X number of days? Over time it might save a bunch of folks needless 'grrr' and 'doh' moments.

Perhaps we have a slight difference in our tinymce editor plugins ?

I am having the same problem now after that last update. There was no problem before.
This is occurring in both my Forum posts and in my Group posts, also in all Comments.
Can no longer select or embed images, videos for youtube, etc.
Here is a screenshot showing where I click in my text editor for posts and comments, and what i get now as the result- a blank area:
Add a note to Banned Items module ?
Suggestions
I've accumulated a good number of Banned Items (IP address ranges, email addresses, domains...). Every time I add a new one I think how nice it would be if I could add a brief NOTE to remind me WHY I banned the item...or what it is.
There have been a couple of times when I've had to un-ban something or someone, and I can't really identify the right item easily. If I had notes that said "George/Australia spammer?", "Chinese marketer domain", or "Florida Margaret troublemaker email" then it would make my job easier. Could we possibly get a short 'note' section for the Banned Items module? If so, thanks!
