• API BUGFIX: When /updatemember was used to create more than one new label at once, every new label got the first name in new_label_names, so only one was created. Each new_ ID in member_labels now uses its own name, color, and description. If a label with that name already exists in the group, it is assigned instead of failing.
• API BUGFIX: /getmember, /getmembers, and /updatemember never included the member_labels field in the member info object, even when the member had labels. They now return it for callers with the manage members permission.
• BUGFIX: When sending a message to a member from their member page, clicking Discard took you to the group's home page, even though sending took you back to the member page. Discard now returns you to the page you started from: the member page, the Members list, an RSVP or poll responses list, or a chat. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41338

• BUGFIX: Clicking an invite link while logged in failed with a "logged in as another user" error when the invitation had been sent to one of your email aliases rather than your primary address, and logging out did not help because the link logged you straight back in. Invitations sent to any of your aliases can now be accepted from the website.
• CHANGE: Giving a moderator most or all permissions meant clicking up to 15 checkboxes one at a time on the member's page. The Moderator Permissions section now has Check All and Uncheck All links, so you can start from everything and remove a few, or start from nothing and add a few. The Moderator Notifications section also has a new Set All To menu that sets every moderator notification (email and web/app, email only, web/app only, or none) at once; you can still adjust individual settings afterward. Nothing is saved until you click Save. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41181
• BUGFIX: On a member's page, changing someone's role from Owner to Moderator hid the Pending Members notification setting even when they still had the Approve Pending Members permission. It now stays visible whenever that permission is checked.

• BUGFIX: Clicking inside the Members and Subgroup Members filter dropdowns could close them and clear selections. The dropdowns now stay open while choosing filters. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41180
• CHANGE: Member label descriptions are now displayed in the Members filter, matching Subgroup Members. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41180
• BUGFIX: Saving or cancelling a member record opened from Subgroup Members returned to the regular Members list. It now returns to Subgroup Members with the previous list state preserved. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41182

• CHANGE: On /bulkremove, the Send Removed Member Notice checkbox now comes before Upload Addresses, and the Remove Members button is disabled until addresses are entered or an upload file is chosen. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41150
• BUGFIX: On /directory, the bottom page navigation could be covered by the scroll-to-top button. Viewing another member's profile no longer expands the Subscription menu and highlights Profile in the sidebar. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41163
• BUGFIX: When a search was active on /members, saving a member's details could leave their row showing the previous values. The list now loads current member details when returning from an edit, so saved changes appear immediately. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41179

• BUGFIX: A member label with no color was drawn with white text on its white background, making the name invisible in the member labels list, the Set Labels dialogs and previews, and on the member page, where the label disappeared entirely against the page. No-color labels now get dark text and an outline, and the no-color choice in the label color picker shows as white with a border instead of a transparency checkerboard. Also fixed the separator line below the member page's labels, which did not extend the full width. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41097
• CHANGE: The Create Label dialog on the member labels page now shows a live preview of the label as you type, matching the Set Labels dialog on the member page, and the create-label forms across the site now use the same field names and description length. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41097
• BUGFIX: In the label color pickers, the checkmark showing the selected color was drawn in white, making it invisible on the white No Color swatch: editing a label with no color looked like no color was selected. The checkmark is now dark on that swatch. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41109
• CHANGE: The Create/Edit Label dialog on the Member Labels page now shows the same "Enter label name" and "Enter label description" placeholder text as the member page's Set Labels dialog. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41109
• BUGFIX: In the Posting Privileges section of the member page, and for the Full Featured Digest option on the Membership Defaults page, clicking a radio button's caption did nothing; only the button itself could be clicked, even though the cursor suggested otherwise. The same problem affected new-style checkboxes and radio buttons on several other admin pages, including the paid membership tier pages, the subgroup tiers page, the enterprise setup page and the Members page's moderation dialog. Clicking the caption now selects the option everywhere. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41136
• BUGFIX: On the member page and the Membership Defaults page, the Email Delivery, Message Selection, Owner Email and Monday Start options still rendered as old-style controls next to the new-style ones, and on Membership Defaults their help text sat flush with the button instead of under the caption. They now match the rest of the page. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41136
• CHANGE: On the Invite, Direct Add, Bulk Remove and File Sync pages, the "Upload a file containing the email addresses..." hint under the Upload Addresses file picker was printed in the regular text color with no final period, unlike the other hints on those pages. It is now styled and punctuated like them. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41144
• BUGFIX: On the Sent Invitations page, the Actions button was always enabled, so Cancel/Remove Invite and Send Again could be chosen with nothing selected. It is now disabled until at least one invitation is checked, like the action buttons on the other list pages. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/41144
