Re: New Group Not Being Created From Yahoo Groups


 

Cathy,

i started yet again today, to be careful, I created another brand new group
- I verified that I am the owner
- I clicked on easy group transfer
- I clicked on Set Up New Transfer
- I entered the existing YanooGroups groups name
- I selected the new group to transfer to
- I clicked on Start New Transfer Process

Thanks for detailing the steps you took. Without that we were simply guessing at where you might be misled.

At this point, the Yahoo Group name should appear in the Existing Transfers list on the instructions page (that list used to be called In Process but I like the new name better). Does it appear? Does the text below that box indicate that there is at least one transfer in process or completed?

If not, then things are already off the rails and you likely need help from [email protected] to resolve the issue.
- in YahooGroups, i invited a new member ¡°[email protected]¡±
And I verifyed that the invitation went through from yahooGroups
-I ?waited for a response from

The next action taken at this step is manual on Groups.io's part, and it often takes a few days for them to accept the invitation.

However, in the mean time the transfer's status page (from the Existing Transfers list) should in a reasonably short period switch from saying that you need to invite the transfer agent to saying that your invitation has been received. That part is automated.

If you can see this transfer's status page, what does the text in the status box at the top say?

feel free to use the instructions I just wrote for you, they are clear cut and concise and walk you through the applicable steps, as this illustrates, I know what I am doing.

I also just (successfully) transferred a group. I updated GMF's Wiki page with screenshots to document the steps (I need to go back and update it again to reflect the name change for the Existing Transfers list).

What can you do to actually help me to finish what, for all my other groups, has been a piece of cake?

Not a damn thing.

Except offer our advice and observations. No one at GMF works for Groups.io, for direct help send a message to [email protected] and let them know what you've tried and where you're stuck.
I would like to hear about what you learn, either way, so please post again. Maybe there's something missing from our Wiki page that would help others who get stuck as you have.

Shal
