    Default Problem with Social Groups display (from User CP)

    I have reported this problem to the Admins. Surely I'm not the only one getting it? (I'm putting the image here because it's not possible to attach an image to a PM unless the attachment already exists on FF. No idea why.)

    Bump.

    85 views and nobody else experiencing the same problem?

    To make it clearer, the big question-marks should be thumbnails, and each Group should have update information, such as last-addition date, at least. Otherwise it's practically useless. The old-style display had all of that and more.

    You get to the screen I'm talking about via User CP and Social Groups.

    Fingers, have a little patience, it's a virtue after all. I am sure admin will figure out what the problem if any is and fix it.

    What should the big question marks be thumbnails of?
    Do the groups have their own title image, can't say I've ever noticed this before?

    The Group creator could pick one, just like Albums. Wasn't it always like that?

    Think about it -- if no image, then why have a great big box containing just a question-mark?

    And update information is also essential to make such a display useful, even without thumbnails.

    its down to the Group owner to select an image for the group..
    i dont think it had images before, its a new feature, they need to be managed.
    Apart from that its working fine.

    I spoke too soon, blinded by the ???s.

    Clicking View All Groups, halfway down on the right, gets a display of Groups with the last-updated at the top. It's one step more than before, but gets a better result.

    Group owners need to provide thumbnails (max 200 x 200) for their Groups. That'll get rid of the ???s.
