  1. This is very basic but, is he aware that he needs to send the data to NWP?
  2. I'm guessing it was the next book we will study at the midweek meeting starting on July: Walk Courageously With God. Until you receive the physical book, you could use the digital edition: https://www.jw.org/download/?output=html&pub=wcg&fileformat=PDF%2CEPUB%2CJWPUB%2CRTF%2CTXT%2CBRL%2CBES%2CDAISY&alllangs=0&langwritten=E&txtCMSLang=E&isBible=0 You can also find it on JW Library under LIBRARY > BOOKS.
  3. Thanks, Matthew. This comment is useful. A suggestion: If a message like "The PIN number entered is incorrect" were included in the error message, it would be easier to understand what the issue is. It's happening to us too.
  4. Jace, Richard's suspicions are not about specific your tool, but about unofficial jwpub files you can find on the internet. Often you have no idea where they come from, if their content has been tampered with, or what purpose they were made for. It's a wild world out there. Your tool is really useful.
  5. The scriptural principle involved is to avoid anything that defiles our body or our spirit (2Co 7:1). That is, substances that are harmful or that create addiction. Drugs in themselves are not recreational. Drugs are just drugs with different effects. If some of their effects are beneficial, they are administered under medical supervision, and their use in that way is allowed by the Caesar, Christians there's no scriptural objection to them. A Christian wouldn't use morphine with recreational purposes, but certainly could use it under medical supervision to reduce pain after a surgery, for example. If doesn't depend on the drug, but on the conditions in which it's used. Of course, even under medical care we still would be careful about the potential addiction.
  6. Benjamin, I'm sorry that you are having trouble. Your best option is to open a ticket with the developers of NW Scheduler: https://nwscheduler.com/support-contact-us/ We are just users like yourself, we do our best to help but cannot change anything in the app.
  7. Carlos, I don’t think that is correct. I read a lengthy post on this forum from a brother who stated that he was one of the developers. It would be great if the devs would identify themselves in the forum.

      You are right that we have a member who at times collaborates with NWS developers as a volunteer. I have no idea if he can transmit any feedback, but he is not an employee nor can speak on behalf of the developers. 

      So again, when we have an issue it's ok to vent here but that won't solve anything. Our best option is to open a ticket in the official support system. :)

  8. I was thinking about this. I don't know the way NWP handles those notifications now, but it sounds like it isn't checking the report in the best place. Every time you start NWP it could check, not whether your report was sent from that device, but whether it was received by the secretary. This information is available on NWP, since the group overseer can see who has sent it and who hasn't. If the publisher has sent his report, no notifications are necessary. If he hasn't, then send a notification. Of course I am not a developer, but this sounds like a logical procedure. I don't even have NWP on two devices and yet have received a lot of notifications this month requesting my report. I think this could be improved. Just saying that's the way it is designed to work is not reasonable IMO.
  9. Yes, there are lots of wolves out there. This community is very different from Facebook in the sense that, instead of posting just one pic or some brief text, here you are able to have more extensive discussions and get to know others better. While no site on the internet that allows discussion is completely immune to apostates, they are quickly identified and removed here, most times before anyone other than the mods are able to see anything they post.
  10. James, NWP devs are not members here nor read this forum. They will never know all you have posted unless you file a ticket by means of their support system. Complaining here is ok, but it won't solve anything.
  11. Joao, I completely agree with all your points. Most UFO sightings are either scams or natural phenomenons. In most cases I don't think they have anything to do with demons. As you say, what interest would demons have in making people believe in alien life? Life in other planets doesn't prove anything about God's existence. Of course God would have created that life the same as he did on earth.
  12. Thanks for all the replies. I sent the question to support and they replied quickly pointing to where it's covered in the Support section: https://nwscheduler.com/how-to/jw-secretary/publisher-records/ How should we handle reactivated ones? Which basically says you don't need to do anything. The publisher can send her report and she will be automatically tagged as active at the next month. A publisher didn't share in the ministry, but it says their report is "missing" Which suggest to enter some comment in the previous reports as some of you had suggested. It's not an elegant solution but it works.
  13. We had an inactive publisher who has started going in service again. I marked this sister as active and she sent her report for April. Yet the program is warning me her reports for the previous five months are missing. How should I set this up so that it stop showing those warnings? I can't see a "date of reactivation" anywhere.
