They're not updating their display name. Groups.io harvests the name in their email (if they have sent any email) and plops it into their display name if the display name was blank before.

Shal,

So many things all at once, I got a little mixed up.?Upon further research, no hashtags take me to the photo albums.?

But, also upon further research, it's only one album that has all 16 photos attributed to me. I have never uploaded a photo to either Y!G or Grio. I have never created a photo album. We did not transfer anything before did. Is it possible that the photos were linked to messages that were from one of the 23 member addresses that were transferred and are bouncing, so they get attributed to one of the co-owners?

As far as the hashtag issue, the hashtag I mentioned has one email associated. It has a hashtag in the subject line. The two ways to get to the post was either through the hashtag menu or the member activity menu. So now that I think I know how some of these hashtag categories were set up, is it possible and how to remove them. They aren't necessary and only clutter things up. I know I can restrict members from creating hashtags, which would stop new ones from inadvertently being created, but that would also stop intentional hashtag creations, which isn't something we want to do.

Yes, the email postings showed this mornings date and time as to the time of posting, but the content showed the original posting date. My point is that our transfer was 3 days ago and they are just showing up now. Is that normal as to cleaning up loose ends?

Likewise, I find it hard to believe that 3 days after the transfer, suddenly 63 members decided to update their Display Name within 20 minutes. Especially since some of them haven't been heard from in years. I understand the unsubscribing members that forgot they even were in the group, etc. but the mass updating threw me for a loop. Once again, is this normal or a bug?

Thanks. And thanks for your suggestion last week about looking into why the transfer was taking so long. It turned out to be something we could fix (photo size) and the transfer happened before the end of the second business day after we made the change.
