Re: Need some help new here

 

I believe you said you were using an iPad.?
If you have pinched to zoom, you might not be able to see it.
Try 2 finger scrolling to see if there is anything off the edge.

I looked at the screenshots you sent to the mods.?
It could also be a hiccup and you should try to change your member's status again.

Click open the More hamburger menu at lower right of the message to access the Delete option.

Entire topics can also be deleted in Topics view using the down-arrow menu.

Re: Need some help new here

 

Go to:
Admin > Members
Use the "Members, Moderators, Pending Approval, Bouncing, Banned" dropdown menu to select "Moderators"
you should see all Moderators and Owner there.

I just promoted one of my other email address to Owner and also could not see the Owner badge, but when I horizontally 'stretched' my browser window, or reduced (or magnified) my browser window I was able to see the Owner badge.

Yes still owner


Re: Need some help new here

 

Please go to Admin, Members and see how many email addresses are there.
You said you have 3 members. Including yourself??
Then there should only be 3 email addresses there.
Perhaps your member has two email addresses in your group. Or perhaps you have two email addresses in your group.

I asked whether you are still owner, because if you promote someone to owner, they can remove your ownership.

Got 3 members


Re: Need some help new here

 

So you logged in (owner) and you made a member an owner too. You saved the change.

But there is no badge showing that this other member is an owner?
Or is your owner "badge" missing?

No other member
If there are no other members in your Groups.io group, you are already the Owner.

Your mileage may vary, depending largely on message volume and the general level of ongoing activity. But I think you should strongly consider that.?

Should I create temporary GIO subgroups for immediate usage and move the messages to the true target GIO subgroups subsequent to import completion?
I do not recommend this, because...

Is it even possible to move messages among subgroups and retain dates and ownerships connections?
...it is not possible.

Is it possible for a group owner to edit / reset posted message dates and ownership?
No.

Will threads be preserved (indexed?) across the import - subsequent posts divide?
I know that the threading algorithm is applied to imported messages in order to create topics, and much of the server load involved in the import involves the reconstruction of those threads. However, I wouldn't hang my hat on that working across the "divide" (as you so astutely put it). :-)

I expect that the GIO import process will preserve all Yahoo content attributes such as dates and ownership as related to the imported member lists. If a member subscribes to a GIO subgroup prior to the GIO import with the identical email address will that mess up any ownership or attribute connections?
I have heard conflicting reports. It's supposed to be retained, and Mark has stated that if this was so, it's unintentional (i.e.: a bug).

For what it's worth, there are mechanisms in place to reassign the ownership of photos, but not of files.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

I logged in as owner and tryed to set one of my member to owner like sed and saved it but no bage for owner next email of member understand?


Re: New Group owner = how to delete messages

 

It is easy to delete just a few.

In the message, click on the arrow beside the date. You will see quite a few options including delete.
If it has already been sent out, you can't retract it. However you can certainly take it out of your message archive.
Not sure about timeline of queuing up messages for those that get the digest.

messages question

 

Does anyone know how I can delete old messages?

New Group owner = how to delete messages

 

Is it possible to delete previously "approved" messages? We might approve a message in error and I can't see how to remove it. Also, how long to messages stay online...thanks...gary


Member Switchover Timing

 

Hello,

All of my groups/subgroups are in the "Stage 3 of 4" import queue but with expected completion times of about a month.

AIUI, "Stage 1 of 4" exported a snapshot of all the available Yahoo group content and has safely saved it on Groups.io storage so there is no danger of loss of any historical content up to the point of export. The content is primarily just messages and static files - no photos, attachments, databases or such. Additional Yahoo group content subsequent to the GIO export will not be captured by GIO and will require manual transfer to GIO groups. Is this correct?

Any insights regarding these topics will be appreciated.

Namaste', Art

Re: Need some help new here

 

Do you have two email accounts with Groups.io?

Or are you not logged in?

Re: Can I Bulk Remove Messages

 

Dale, why not wait for support to fix whatever is broken?? You paid for that and he'll do that.? ?You don't want to throw away $930.? You could make things worse at this point.? He'll respond to you, just give it some time.

Re: "Average Pace" of transfers

 

I'd say things have speeded up.? We entered Stage 3 of 4 at 9 p.m. last night with 1,125 groups ahead of us. As of 9 p.m. tonight, we are at 1,041 in the queue.? That's nearly triple the 30 a day figure I've seen mentioned a few times.
