We’re changing your Google Groups settings experience starting May 6, 2019

Updated settings available to admins and Groups users

Dear Google group owner or manager,

We're writing to let you know about changes we're making to the settings experience of Google Groups.

In response to your feedback, we're updating the Groups' settings experience starting May 6, 2019. The goal is to make it easier for you to manage and configure your groups.

About these changes

  • We're removing some rarely-used settings and features, and we're combining similar settings. Learn more about the settings changes.
  • We'll start rolling out these changes on May 6, 2019, though you might not see changes until May 21, 2019.
  • When the changes take effect, we'll automatically update the settings for existing groups to map to the new experience.

Important notes

  • Some group members may lose access to group management features. Depending on your current settings, some group members who currently can access specific group management features may lose that access. To make sure group members have the right access, you may want to audit your groups and adjust the settings before May 6, 2019.
  • Settings for groups you currently own or manage will be updated to match the new settings. Note: You can change your group settings at any point.
  • Groups you create after May 6th will have the new settings by default.
  • We recommend you audit your groups settings after the changes to confirm your groups are set up the way you want.
  • If you need help, visit our Help Center.
  • Sincerely,
    The Google Groups Team

    Your personal Google+ account is going away on April 2, 2019

    You've received this email because you have a consumer (personal) Google+ account or you manage a Google+ page.

    In December 2018, we announced our decision to shut down Google+ for consumers in April 2019 due to low usage and challenges involved in maintaining a successful product that meets consumers' expectations. We want to thank you for being part of Google+ and provide next steps, including how to download your photos and other content.

    On April 2nd, your Google+ account and any Google+ pages you created will be shut down and we will begin deleting content from consumer Google+ accounts. Photos and videos from Google+ in your Album Archive and your Google+ pages will also be deleted. You can download and save your content, just make sure to do so before April. Note that photos and videos backed up in Google Photos will not be deleted.

    The process of deleting content from consumer Google+ accounts, Google+ Pages, and Album Archive will take a few months, and content may remain through this time. For example, users may still see parts of their Google+ account via activity log and some consumer Google+ content may remain visible to G Suite users until consumer Google+ is deleted.

    As early as February 4th, you will no longer be able to create new Google+ profiles, pages, communities or events.

    See the full FAQ for more details and updates leading up to the shutdown.

    If you're a Google+ Community owner or moderator, you may download and save your data for your Google+ Community. Starting early March 2019, additional data will be available for download, including author, body, and photos for every community post in a public community. Learn more

    If you sign in to sites and apps using the Google+ Sign-in button, these buttons will stop working in the coming weeks but in some cases may be replaced by a Google Sign-in button. You'll still be able to sign in with your Google Account wherever you see Google Sign-in buttons. Learn more

    If you've used Google+ for comments on your own or other sites, this feature will be removed from Blogger by February 4th and other sites by March 7th. All your Google+ comments on all sites will be deleted starting April 2, 2019. Learn more

    If you're a G Suite customer, Google+ for your G Suite account should remain active. Contact your G Suite administrator for more details. You can also expect a new look and new features soon. Learn more

    If you're a developer using Google+ APIs or Google+ Sign-in, click here to see how this will impact you.

    From all of us on the Google+ team, thank you for making Google+ such a special place. We are grateful for the talented group of artists, community builders, and thought leaders who made Google+ their home. It would not have been the same without your passion and dedication.
