February 9, 2024

February 5, 2024

February 2, 2024
- BUGFIX: If a member subscribed via email to a subgroup and didn't already have a parent group subscription, the member is automatically subscribed to the parent group. But the notification that they had subscribed to the parent group was sent out indicating that they had subscribed to the subgroup. That meant most mods got two exactly the same notifications.
