Re: How to open files from Files section in browser

 

I think groups.io sends the data from the files section using a non-browser mime type with some intention. They want to avoid that the files-section is abused as a webserver (assumingly mostly due to legal considerations).

Lucy -- Did you recently increase your screen width? Is it happening all the time, or with just this one message?

It looks like your email client is tiling the background because the screen width is too wide.

Re: How to get out of the download photo in groups.io

 

Margo Seegrist <rli@...> wrote:


I must be missing something. When I go to a photo in an album and I
click on Edit and go down to the bottom and click on download, up
comes the photo (which is great). After I right click and do the
Save as, I'm at a loss as to how to get out of the photo itself.
There is no "X" to click on . No "back". No column on the left side
to click on Photos again. The only way I've found to get out of that
state is to click my back arrow at the top of my server company
(AOL).
I'm not sure where "Edit" comes in, I don't see that, but I have
duplicated your experience after clicking "Download".

It happens this way because of the way your browser responds to the
GroupsIO page code - it displays the picture instead of offering it as a
download. The only way out of it, as you've found, is to use the
browser's "back" button (you might find the backspace key on the
keyboard also works).

To get round this, use the right-click "Save as" option on the download
button itself.

I have a background in this email that has a leaf border on the right. I am sending along a messed up background picture and a picture of a correct background.

I am in two other groups and this is not happening in those groups.

Can you help me get the correct background back again. Thanks.

Re: Change destination for one of my group transfers

 

Dale -- Your situation is unfortunate, although probably self-inflicted.

I can only imagine how you must feel about having this kind of mess after having ponied up that much money.

Sit tight. You have almost a month to get this straightened out. Meanwhile, your Yahoo Groups are still there to fall back on, or at least I would hope so.?

Good luck,

Yes, if you use the Easy Group Transfer process.

What might be ¡°lost in the translation¡±?
Nothing that I can think of.

We set all members of the old YahooGroup to moderated. ?Then when a message comes in we reject it with a message to the sender reminding them that the YahooGroup is closed due to changes at Yahoo and they should use the Groups.io, along with a sign up link.

Kathleen,? this is what happened to me, somehow my YG Group was Mis-Mapped to Transfer to the wrong Destination IO group.? I sent emails for a week to Support at IO and never got a human reply.? There was no way to change/fix the destination.? I thought that maybe if I paid the $200 expedite fee they would see my emails asking to fixt the mapping.? ?The worst ting happned, they put the wrong Members,files and messages into the wrong group.

so they put a 1300 member YG DGUSA group, all the date into the wrong IO SOCalScouts group.
and they put
a 490 member YG SoCalSCouts mebers list with files and messages into my 3100 member IO LAProducer group.

it created and absolute mess and these are my critical career contacts getting co-mingled.? The worse part is I tried to prevent it but Groups.IO support is not reading the Tech Support emails, the are focused on ringing the register all day long instead of getting it right.? I am so disappointed.? I also very forgiving and hopign someone at Groups.IO eventually reads the desparate emails I have been sending to fix it.? ?I fixed the Membership lists in Buld Edit Members. But there is no Bulk Edit Messages.? ? I hope you understand and we need to Pray for the staff at Groups.io doing all this work, I think they are getting tired or something.? ?the support is not there right now and I am out $930. so far for my 3 groups.? ?-Peace.
How to open files from Files section in browser

 

Hello

I've noticed that although I can add .html and .txt files to the Files section of my group, and although I can search through such files, when I left-click a result, my browser prompts me with a "what to do" notice (e.g. download, open, etc.). A browser should be able to open HTML and TXT files without being prompted, so I guess there is something about the Files page that tells the browser "this is a downloadable file".

I'd like users to be able to left-click a TXT or HTML file in the Files section and let it open in their web browser pretty much without prompting. Can that be done somehow?

Thanks
Samuel

Well, for the moment, just make sure you have copies of your mails. You can always investigate other options later about how to make these mails available to people. There must be many ways to store stuff online and give people access to it.

You cannot change it after you've given the go-ahead and are already in the transfer queue.?

That's what "giving the go-ahead" means...that you're satisfied with how you have it set up and are ready for the transfer agent to take over.

Re: Yahoogroups claims I have no data???

 

Ruth D,

... it occurred to me that I don't think it asked which of the
8 groups I'm owner of I wish to download.
It doesn't ask. It gives you a download of all the groups it finds for you. However it decides that.

So will all the groups data come in together?
My download (from an alternate account) finally came in today. It was a zip file containing folders for the seven groups that account was a member of.

Unfortunately for Susan and my email address theory, and consistent with Gerald's logical assumption, those seven were all of the groups in that account's Manage My Groups, without regard to the selected Email for each.

So I guess I can anticipate getting another "no data" result for the other account's fifty memberships (wow, I didn't remember having that many).

[There is a] Chrome extension, written by groups.io's very own Mark Fletcher, [which] will retrieve and save the messages to an mbox file.
Thanks, but that extension requires one to re-download messages all over again.

I have used it successfully in the past, but could not get it to work about 2 weeks ago.

Re: Yahoogroups claims I have no data???

 

Susan,

Please let me know what happens.
We shall see.

I went into Manage My Groups and flipped the Email ID for (almost) all my memberships to use the Yahoo Mail address associated with that account (which I had activated a couple years ago, for unrelated reasons). The couple that had no Yahoo Profile selected I selected the primary profile for that account.

I decided that would be easier than trying to -subscribe or Invite the Yahoo Mail address to each group. Most are dormant so I don't expect to lose many messages into Yahoo Mail. The couple that are still active I did Invite anew.

Then I re-submitted the data request. So now I wait.

I was unable to add the email address I use for groups to the list of
addresses yahoo has on file for me.
You should be able to do that through the Account Recovery address list in your Account page.


For your use, you'll then want to use the Membership Wizard to transfer those memberships into your account, if they don't show in Manage My Groups.

OK, I believe you are saying you went to:
Admin > Members
Used the "Members, Moderators, Pending Approval, Bouncing, Banned" dropdown menu and selected "Moderators"
And that you see that member listed there. (That means they are an Owner or Moderator.

But you still can't see their badge.
It is probably hidden behind the "Delivery" column.

Try horizontally 'stretching' your browser window,
or reducing (or magnifying) your browser window

On a Mac, I use the 'Command' and '-' or '+' keys at the same time.
Each time I push them both at the same time everything in my current browser window is made smaller or larger.
If you have a PC, I think you use the 'Control' and '-' or '+' keys at the same time.

You can also click on any member's row (not the check box) and see what Role they have.

I just read that you may be on an iPad, this works on my iPhone:
Use the "More" menu at the bottom right of the screen (of your Groups.io group)
Tap on "Members"
Use the "Members, Moderators, Pending Approval, Bouncing, Banned" dropdown menu and selected "Moderators"
And that you see that member listed there. (That means they are an Owner or Moderator.

Try turning your mobile device from Portrait to Landscape mode (rotate it so the screen is wider than tall).

I don't know but for iPad, you may have to be in a 'desktop' rather than mobile mode to see it.
You may have to do a Google search to find out how to do that.
