Re: Transfer Problems: Yahoo to Groups.io


 

Bob,

I cannot seem to find a way to make [email protected] a moderator of
my Yahoo group.

The Yahoo page on which this is to be accomplished lacks a drop-down
menu with a heading "Role". That menu is required to make someone a
Moderator.
It sounds like you are a moderator of the Y!Group but lack the privilege to "Add, remove, and change moderator privileges". Without that you're stuck.

Another symptom would be in the Moderators tab of the group's Manage Members list - if clicking on the rows (outside the checkbox column) does nothing instead of opening the moderator's Edit Member page that too indicates a lack of that privilege.

Until I can do this I cannot transfer the Yahoo group to Groups.io.
Any suggestions?
Correct. You need to find a group owner, or a mod with that privilege, to give you that privilege.

If there's no one active in the group to do that then I think the best you can do is create the new group on Groups.io and invite over any members for which you have email addresses. That might only be those whose postings you've kept in your email folders.

This is basically the same situation Dale is in, you might want to read his threads:
