You may get your "power" back.? Yahoo has been doing many strange things recently.? One person has a suggestion that may possibly work, /g/GroupManagersForum/message/21985? If that doesn't work, you can see if another moderator on the YG can do it or upgrade your permissions so you can send invitations (and promote transfer to a moderator.)? The inviter/promoter doesn't need to be the same person doing the transfer.
Thanks for responding and trying to help. As a Moderator of my
group, I have access to all the management function EXCEPT the
critical one required by Groups.io for automated migration: The
ability to Invite members (Groups.io requires an invitation be
sent from the old Yahoo group to a specific Groups.io address).
Only an Owner has that ability. The cited link advises:
I have tried the above suggestions every which way and backward,
with no success. Here's a summary of the basic issue: With Yahoo ID/Email Nawdry_bga@... I am recognized as a Moderator of the LRPPro Yahoo group, but not as Owner. The Owner is listed on the LRPPro site as Nawdry@.... I own that Yahoo ID/Email address. But when I access the site with that ID, I am not even recognized as a member, much less as Owner. When I try to subscribe to the list, I get a message:
But it IS linked to a Yahoo account. I receive Email at that
account, but somehow it is not recognized by Yahoo groups. I have
gone through loop after loop after loop. Just this morning I paid a $4.95 fee (plus tax) to get access to Yahoo's online tech support. I spent over an hour trying to get help, but they have no ability whatsoever to assist with Yahoo Groups, despite their promotional material claims. They are processing a return of my fee. More importantly, they have absolutely no phone number or other contact access to the central Yahoo administration and any tech support other than what they themselves provide. In other words, it seems Yahoo has closed any and all support for Yahoo Groups and any way to resolve this at the Yahoo Groups point. All of this is truly like a story by Kafka. Is there absolutely no way Groups.io could help migrate my Yahoo
group archives, photos, etc. to my Groups.io group without
requiring the invitation and going through the automated process?
