Group notices should work for any size of group. If they do not please file a bug report. Include the size of the group and whether or not the notice ends up in the notice history after you send it and close then re-open the group information window.

Some notes:
- You must press Send to send the notice - pressing 'ok' or 'apply' will not send the notice.

- It is possible for roles in a group to not have notices enabled - meaning anyone who is only in that role will not get notices. If notices are enabled for the Everyone role then this isn't an issue. This power is 'Recieve Notices and View Past Notices' in the Notices category.

- Also every member can decide for every group if they want to receive notices or not. The checkbox for this is in the bottom right corner of the Group Information window on the General tab.

If you are sure all of that is set correct and people in roles set to receive notices who have opted in to receive notices themsevles are not getting the notices then please, file a bug report so we can look into it. - Kelly Linden


I filed bug reports on this - as have several other large group owners. We just need a real fix date so we can use the feature as it was intended to be used. After my first quiestion regarding this feature several people sent me messages agreeing that this was a good question. Can we please have a answer?

You were given an answer. They should work. If they don't you have done the right thing and filed a bug report which will get investigated. There is no ETA on any fix for this.
