If I correctly get the gist of your question, there is no convenient way to selectively send a "tickler" message to those who have failed to respond to your poll.

To be perfectly honest, I find the GIO polling feature to have limited utility. Whenever I send out a poll, my typical response rate is 10%; and that?sample is biased towards?the kind of people who 1) respond to polls, 2) aren't completely befuddled by the GIO login process, and?3) are willing to jump through that hoop. If I'm lucky, I'll get another 10% who will respond by email, and thus have to be added up manually...so the poll results aren't even a reliable historical record.

As owners, we pretty much stay logged in all the time, but it's remarkable how many of my subscribers simply refuse to do it.

I hope this helps, but I do realize that it probably doesn't.

Good luck,
Bruce?

Hopefully after reading these we can address any further questions.

Thanks in anticipation.

As I go through the settings I find one instance of the term "non-subscribers" ... it would be helpful if there was a better definition for each access level, like:

? Non-Subscribers: people who go to a G.io site but don't log-in with email/password, so have very limited access
? Subscribers: people who access a G.io site and login with email/password, so may have moderated access
? Members: people who access a G.io site and login with email/password, so have full access if granted by the owner/moderator
So, after reading all the posts on this subject, are my interpretation of the 3 levels accurate? If not, there is still ambiguity and I respectfully suggest that more clarification in the SETTINGS

I would say and advocate that:

? Non-Subscribers: people who do not belong to a G.io site, so have very limited access

? Subscribers: people who belong to a G.io site with an email address only and don’t login to a G.io site, so have very limited access

? Members: people who access a G.io site and login with an email address and a password or ‘loginlink' (temporary password), so have full access as granted by the owner/moderator

I have tried several times to move a group and i think I have followed the instructions. I have not received any error messages.
Can someone help me and perhaps guide me through the process?

Thanks,

When you go to the group Admin on the left and click on Upgrade, the portion used by attachments is shown,? There's a live link to the right of it that will show you a list of all posts that contain attachments.? From there, you can go to them and delete the attachments as needed.

There is a Delete Album button on the top of the page when you are viewing the album.

Thanks

Select the album in question, then click the Delete Album button at the top.

After you free up some space to work with, you could download the photos that are huge, then upload them again after reducing the group size limit setting so that it will reduce them for you.? Then, using the recent feature, assign ownership to the person that originally uploaded them.? BTW, I've got my max size set to 312x312 and no one has complained, but we don't do serious graphics work, so it depends on the group.

If the Change Vote button is active before someone votes (and I believe it is), I'd consider that a bug that should be reported to [email protected]

The main thing is that you have found the problem. If you look at "attachments" you may well find a lot of duplication because some of them may be "picture" information in members' sign - offs. It can also be quite problematic to match up old attachments with long - forgotten messages so IMHO all the attachments are good candidates for deletion.

I don't know for sure but I suspect that retrospectively reducing photo sizes won't work; that happens as part of the upload process.

As for your potentially unhappy subscriber he might just have to put up with it; You could always give him the option to either (a) lose a (large) number of his photos or (b) pay for an upgrade with greater storage. I would argue that he does not have any right to deny others the opportunity of uploading relevant photographs, and at the moment that is exactly what is happening.

As the Group Owner you have both the responsibility and the right to run the group for the benefit of all your members, not just for prolific uploaders. Is he simply using it as cloud storage?

Chris.

I'm running some test polls in my new group.
The email that contains the poll provides a link back to the group home. I see a collection of poll choices and a button that says "Change Vote"
I've already had a few members confused by this thinking that they may have accidentally already voted, or someone else voted for them etc.
Is there a reason the button wouldn't simply say "vote"?

Thanks in advance,?

Jean

No.? A non-subscriber is anyone that's not a member of your group(s).? Members and subscribers (same thing) are those that have joined your group, whether they access it by email or online.

I am having the same problem and get no answers, time to go back to yahoo, at least there I can upload files

This was your first post to GMF, and a rash statement is not a question.

Have you checked your file allocation? What do your settings look like? What symptoms are you having?

Files page says 115Mb used

It doesn't matter what the files page says. Space is limited to total files + photos. For free groups, this limit is 1 GB. How big is the file that you're trying to upload?

Do what Dwayne said...go to Admin->Upgrade. Here you will see your total storage use.? If you are maxed out, I recommend changing the settings so old email attachments are deleted. Go to Admin->Settings->Message Formatting->Out Of Space, pull down the menu, and select "Delete Old Attachments."?

If you are NOT running out of space, there is something else wrong with your Settings.

Hope this helps,

The "Files are Disabled" option takes away the Files option from the menu. So, it must not have been set that way if the original poster was able to access the files menu.

Problem solved
I looked at Admin and found 225 Mb attachments, 680 Mb Photos, and 114 Mb for Files.
Clearly I need to clean house. The Photos are the most fruitful.

Next query is how to remove Photos that are not mine.
And how to reduce attachments that are not mine.
I know the subscriber that has the most, and he will be unhappy.
I did reduce the max size from 2048X2048 to 1024X1024.
Maybe I should cut it in half again?

Should I do a new query with the new Subject?
Thanks, Richard

What is the total max capacity allowed in Files?

Er... have you read my earlier post? Assuming that by "not upgraded" you are stating that you have a Basic Group the total storage, shared between File and Photos is 1 GB. There is no separate limit for Files. Check how much space is occupied by Photos.

Have you just migrated from Yahoo or has Groups.io hosted it for some time?

Chris

Duane, that's what I'm saying - there IS no member to approve.? It is blank.? 0 members to approve.?
