Re: Adding a group of members to multiple subgroups at one time

 

Beth,


  • transfer the yahoo group to main

Exclude the files from this transfer, unless you want copies in the primary as well as the specific subgroup.

  • Download the member list to a csv file because I don't have an independent list

If your group has more than 1000 members it is easiest to do this from the Groups.io group after the transfer. Probably better to use this list anyway, to avoid complication with bouncing members.

  • Use csv file to create a text file with name and email address in correct formatting

For this purpose, only the email address is needed, one per line. The Display Name for each member will have already been set by the transfer, and the display name in each subgroup will perforce be the same as in the primary group.

  • In main, direct add using the new file and check off the 3 subgroups
  • Request another transfer to bring over the files to the correct subgroup

Excluding the members this time. Looks good.

Shal
