I did a Direct Add, and the welcome message that was received did not match the Direct Add welcome message — both in that it didn't include my custom text *and* it gives the incorrect URL (with "test" in the name).

Dave -- The Welcome message is an entirely different message from the Direct Add message, therefore it stands to reason that they don't match. See the system help at?/static/help#membernotices.

You can only have one active Welcome message at a time. If you don't make one active, the system sends a default.

Regarding Direct Add...As with invite, you have to INSERT your custom text by pulling down the Notices menu and selecting one of your member notices of type Direct Add. If you don't select any member notice, nothing will be inserted. The idea is to have multiple templates of this kind that you can select from as needed. And again, the boilerplate surrounding your custom text cannot be changed or eliminated.?

Groups Settings: Be sure to update both the Group Email Address and the Group Title to reflect the change in group name. Also check the Message Footer and Subject Tag entries. More information at?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Renaming-a-Group

I hope this helps, because it's the best I can do.

I am trying to port a group from Yahoo and the name seems to be taken, yet it doesn't show up in a search.? I tried some variations and they didn't work, but maybe not for the same reason.? Are underscores not allowed?? Even so I tried both Hipresurfacingsite and hipresurfacing.?

I'm beginning to think someone with an agenda is intentionally blocking the group being formed here.? Seems there were two Yahoo groups covering the same subject and there has been friction.? It seems crazy, but I'm wondering if there is enough animosity for someone to intentionally block this group using its old name.? I just tried using "Hipresurfacingsite" in the URL where the group name would go and it took me to "/g/surfacehippy" which is the competing group.? Is it possible to register a groups.io name and vector it to a different group?? Is this allowed by the site operators?

I think we need a screen shot of what you're seeing.? All the testing we've done has worked like it should.

Your Activity Log should tell you that!

You can't create a subgroup until the primary group gets approved. Wait awhile and it will work.

Thanks.
@Duane, yes I thought that too, but he has both replied to the invite email and sent a seepage email to the subscribe email address and gets the same error.
@Chris, yes he is btinternet; we have had all sorts of problems with btinternet and yahoo groups for years and hoped we might have escaped from that for those members! I will find out what email client he uses. We do have quite a few btinternet email members who have successfully joined, I can maybe ask some of them how they applied too.

Yup - there are several places where you have to change this - I’m pretty sure I found them all..

I'm moving the members of two groups from Yahoo - not transferring the groups, just using Direct Add. I note that the Unsubscribe "link" in the default message is not an active link, just underlined text. My tester noticed that she could not unsubscribe by clicking on it, so the text really is inactive. Apparently I can't edit the default message.?What can/should I do??

Did you also change the group email address?? That gets filled in on the invitations automatically.

I understand, but I am speaking of the “Invitation To Be Sent” message, not the Custom Message that is beneath it.

Anyway you can check to see if there is a queue at groups for responses?

You do your own checking now that Mark has made some improvements.? See Step 11 (and all following) of the Detailed Instructions at /g/GroupManagersForum/message/19673

As an owner, who do I access a list of my group's members?

So my President is concerned about the new additional Cost. Where are the “Terms of Service” that this years cost is $200 and what next years cost is?
Will Ware
StinsonOwners

From my Club President

Seems a bit sketchy If it was originally $100. My thoughts are they should stick to that and not come up with an excuse to change it midstream.?

Who’s to say we give $200 then a week later they want $300 etc. ?

I/we need to know the terms of the services they are offering, with all the details listed. I understand why we are moving away from Yahoo but this is an expense to ISC and many are not members. ?

Thanks, Jody Jones President ISC

Thanks - I can create a new “Invite” message, but I don’t see the original one, and after I create the new one, it doesn’t replace the original one. ?I notice the ‘Welcome’ message is “Active”, but my new Invite message does not have a button to make it Active.

Dave -- All members notices of type Invite (and Direct Add) are always "active." You select the one you want at the time of invitation, by pulling down the Notices menu in the Customize Message block. Or simply type the text you want into that block.

Doing so inserts a custom message of your choice into the middle of the invitation that is sent, where it says "The following message was included by [you]. Type some information into the Customize Message block while viewing the Invitation to be Sent section and you'll see what I mean.

The boilerplate text that brackets this inserted, custom message cannot be modified.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

I am not sure where you are trying to do it.
You say you enter the name.
You are actually creating an email address for the subgroup and the instructions say -?Cannot contain spaces, pluses, slashes, or underscores.
Check for that.

Scroll down to click the green button Create Subgroup.

If this doesn't work, perhaps you don't have permissions. For example, as moderator of this group, I haven't been given permission to create a subgroup (and I'm okay with that!). But I just checked on my other groups.
I am assuming you are doing it from the item Subgroup on the menu on the left side of your group homepage.?
