Updated Feature: Optional Subdomains
Posted by Fang on October 15, 2007
As you may know, Group-O-Matic has a feature where groups can create optional subdomains for their groups, e.g. yourgroupname.groupomatic.com. This subdomain feature was intended to help groups in recruiting new members. However, some groups have reported it would also be useful if it worked for existing members as well, and if it doesn’t, it is quite confusing. We agree!
In response, we have updated the optional subdomain feature to additionally work for existing members. Now if an existing group member goes to the group’s subdomain, they will be automatically redirected to the groups’s private page. Everyone else will be automatically redirected to the group’s public page, as previously.
If you are already using the group subdomain feature, you do not need to do anything to take advantage of this update. To use this optional subdomain feature, just click on ‘Change Group Settings’ under the ‘Organizer Control Panel’ section, and then look for where it says Subdomain. It’s that easy.
As always, we welcome your feedback. So don’t hesitate to contact us or leave a comment below.
