A big thanks to User2User member Lon McClure. I filmed a video last week where all the slides appeared backwards! Lon was gracious enough to lend his expertise in correcting the video for me. I am grateful. It shows the power and the benifet of belonging to a community like this where we can help each other. Thans again Lon McClure

++++++++++++++++++++++++++
FAQs about G+ and G+ Communities:
3.33 Billion current accounts
~ 1.0 M more accounts added daily
4.9 Million current Communities
~7400 new Communities created daily
Resulting in these:
Current G+ Community O/M Issues
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
*Reminder - be sure to check the information posted in the community About Section for answers to Frequently Asked Questions here.
TIP - To alphabetize your membership list, go to Membership Search and type in: Quote, Bang, Apostrophe - i.e.: [ "!' ]. Should alphabetizes the entire membership list! However, we need to be able to sort by New Members first too.
"New Posts" number is missing or wildly wrong. Mods no longer can see that there are posts to the community if they are in Spam filter, unless they enter the community and check. Number indicates a new post, but it can be hours later before it is actually displayed in the community.
Moderators should be able to set a default order (top posts vs chronological) for their community. Defaulting everything to Popularity "top posts" has been a fiasco.
O/M do NOT see all posts or comments by members who block them, and it is too hard to determine who blocks the Mods now.
We need the ability to Remove, report, and ban at the comment level with the option to remove ALL content from the poster. That means ALL comments and ALL posts.
Need ability to BULK approve and reject applicants for membership, and bulk remove old invitations.
Trolls and hackers still hijacking communities. TRUST NO ONE!
Notifications not working well, and disappear when you try to read them. This link might help you recover the lost ones: https://plus.google.com/notifications/all
It is too difficult to find the About Section or the Categories in the new UI.
We need the ability to move posts to correct categories on mobile, not just desktop.
Feel free to use the comment section of this post to bring up new questions or new issues, especially if you don't think it needs a full post in the community.

Note that the best place to manage all your Brand Accounts is https://myaccount.google.com/brandaccounts
That lets you access all the Brand Account settings, and links you to Google services on that brand account, including Google+ and YouTube.

More on New Google Voice Update
More on New Google Voice Update
Originally shared by Alex Wiesen
This one is for our users.
It's been a long time. Today we launch new Google Voice apps that have been created from the ground up -- the foundation for great things to come.
Over the years the Google Voice team has done a lot of work behind the scenes to help power other services across Google in the telephony space, including Hangouts. In the summer of 2015, we posted a survey and asked: What do you want to see us do next? How can we serve you better?
We were blown away by the outpouring of responses. Overwhelmingly, users were asking us to invest in Google Voice, make the apps better, and put more love into a product that they depended on.
We knew we had to answer the call, and bring new life to Google Voice. Engineers who've been with the team for years worked alongside brand new engineers who were fans themselves, and we've created the beginning of what I hope will be the best era ever for Google Voice.
But ultimately, the real credit for the new apps lies with you, our users. If it weren't for your support and encouragement, this might not ever have happened. Thanks for being there for us -- we'll be there for you.

Yet another G+ Web Update
Yet another G+ Web Update
Originally shared by John Nack
Image zooming returns to Google+ Web
By very popular demand, you can now really enjoy the details of high-resolution images shared on Google+ by zooming in via your Web browser. This feature—previously available only via the classic Web experience—is now part of the new G+.
With large images you can start zooming in by:
— Clicking the zoom button
— Tapping the 'Z' key
— Using your mouse wheel (or two-finger drag)
— Double clicking on the photo
— Pinching on the photo (via touchscreen/touchpad)
Once the image is zoomed in, you can:
— Use '+' key and '-' keys (plus without shift) to zoom in/out incrementally
— Use arrow keys to pan around the zoomed image

Spaces Chrome Extension Update
Today we're rolling out a few new updates to the Spaces Chrome extension (goo.gl/LKaknA) that allows you to quickly and easily add links/Web pages to your spaces. This new version features a single-screen posting flow that allows you to pick a space, set image previews, and add comments all in one place.
We've also made it possible to add images directly to any of your spaces. Just hover over an image on the Web, and select the Add to Spaces button that appears.
As always, please send us your ideas/issues using the Send Feedback menu item in the Spaces app as that's the best way to ensure we'll see it. Thanks~

Andrew Hatchett I notice on the community that it shows in the logo there are 6 i'm assuming unread posts but why on earth are the categories in the bottom left corner and it doesn't show in the categories where the 6 unread are. It only shares 1 inch of space to see the categories. It's the same for all the communities except for different numbers of unread posts.

Happy 2017!
Happy 2017!
I have a lot of mobile users in my hangouts and we are always experiencing problems with the invite. Sometimes they get in after several attempts.
I tried sending the Permanent link via the Google Hangouts interface.
I tried sending the Permanent Link via the M link (Google Mail).
I tried posting the Permanent Link in a Facebook Post.
I tried sending the Permanent Link in Facebook Messenger.
All of the above have worked at one time or another, but not consistently.
Seems like things go more smoothly with iPhones as compared to Android.
Please advise. Thanks!

Comment Tracker Dead
Comment Tracker Dead
Yesterday, in a posting concerning the new Hangout Toolbox. Moritz Tolxdorff said:
"Thanks, it's a bit more light weight . It won't have Comment Tracker since it didn't properly work anymore anyway."
For those that aren't aware, the coding for the new Hangout Toolbox appears to be finished but it needs to be re-published before it can be made available.
