Re: Help with my transfers over needed please.


 

Hooty,

I have 5 Yahoo groups in waiting for about 2 weeks I think. I re-sent
invitations for IO ( [email protected] ) to join again last night.
Seems like either I am doing something wrong or there is a process
failure in another way.
That's Step 2, so I assume you've also taken Step 1 to set up the transfers.
As Gerald mentioned there is a backlog of groups to be transferred, so two
weeks may not be out of line.

If you haven't, see also Bruce's step-by-step process
/g/GroupManagersForum/message/8697
And the additional tips here:
/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Transfer-from-Yahoo-Groups

I have given the IO groups the same names as the Yahoo groups.
So it looks like you've got Step 0 covered. By the way, it isn't required that you name the groups the same, so if you want to change any now would be the best time.

I notice that your Y!Groups are related in content matter, so I thought I'd mention that it isn't required that there be a 1:1 match-up between Yahoo Groups and Groups.io groups. You can copy two Y!Groups into the same Groups.io group, and you can copy a Y!Group into a subgroup of a Groups.io group. So you have some options there if you want to re-think the structure of your groups.

If you want to make any of those changes you can still do so up until
the time you give the final go-ahead on each group's In Process page (Step 4). There's an update button on the page that will allow you to change your copy options, and I believe that includes the Groups.io
group selection (but not the Y!Group name IIRC).

It is my understanding that when you accept the invitations that I
have sent you, you will notify me so I can make you a moderator.
Please note that GMF is a user-to-user forum - no Groups.io employees here. That said, yes. In Step 3 the transfer agent will send you an email with instructions. And then in Step 4 you use the In Process page for each
Y!Group to tell the transfer agent that you're ready to go.

By the way, you have the word 'clicking' misspelled at
/yahootransfer
Bug reports go to [email protected], and the official suggestion box for Groups.io is the beta group:


Hugs and thanks for any help on my group transfers you can give me.
You're welcome. Feel free to reply back to this group if you have more questions or comments.
