O.P. The group name is invalid!
Hello everyone,

I just installed the latest Plus version.  I am having a weird problem .. when I try to unblock a group, an error msg pops out "The group name is invalid!"

I've never had such a problem before, so any idea??

It must be the new way of checking if the group exists. Patchou added code to check to see if you block a group with the name "A B" and also have a group named "A" that it would block the group "A" instead of group "A B"

According to matty, Patchou added code that will check a group name before blocking it using the Plus! block group function.

This was to ensure groups that included partial names as other ones, e.g. The family & The friends didnt conflict when using the feature.

I have no idea if thats true or not, But its what Matty. was trying to say. :P

Yep, me too, and no confusing group names or anything, they do not resemble each other at all.. :(

edit1: and i cannot block any of my groups.. (i try blocking them by right-clicking on the group and then selecting Messenger Plus! extras, and then Block contacts in group)

edit2: i can block my groups by typing /blockgrp (and then the name of the group)
