I can see subgroups from Your Subscriptions. (Your Groups).

Also in Feed. Click on Groups.io (top left) when logged in. Feed comes first.?
Your Groups comes second (default view from Your Groups, Manage your subscriptions (bottom of the list.)

Anyone else having trouble with their member notices?? I'm the owner of 3 groups and for some reason on all 3 I'm having trouble getting the member notices to make sense. If i change one (such as welcome) it seems to apply the changes to the others (such as goodbye etc). Now I've got no member notices and when i try to Add it just doesn't stick. This trouble seems to have started in the last month or so. Any suggestions?? Many thanks, Barb

I think Bruce is right, it's weird.? I'm on one .io group on both yahoo mail and gmail.? When I click reply to sender in yahoo, it works, the sender's name goes in the to box like it's supposed to.? but not on gmail.? But on yahoo group? posts, it worked in gmail.? so who knows.

Clicking “reply to sender” opened a new mail (annoyingly to me, it did it over the web – my gmail account which requires an internet connection in order to compose, vs my email client, which would open a new mail whether or not I was on line)...

FP -- As I mentioned to Terri, this depends completely on your local settings, and is not in groups.io's control.

See??and similar articles on the web.

When I try this here on this group, I click on private, then get sent to a list of my groups, come back, click it again, and it says reply to sender.? I don't know if it works or not.? But why would I get sent to my list of groups page first?

As for posts in emails, reply to sender opens a new window, instead of just putting sender's name in to box.? Is this me or the way it's set up?

I am logged in. I am in GMF. I click on Reply to your email. I type my reply.
Then I scroll down and choose the green Reply to Group or click on Private (white button, bottom right) to send just to the author.

If you don't see the Private button below the text box (for writing), then you don't have your group set up to allow replies to the sender. (I think someone mentioned this earlier.)

Go to Admin, Settings, scroll down to Message Policies. Untick
Remove Other Reply Options

Terri -- That's very peculiar. I have no explanation, other than to say that doesn't happen here.

What should occur is that the button at lower left (which is used to actually send the reply) toggles between a green "Reply to Group" button and a blue "Reply to Sender" button with each click of the "Private" button.

As for posts in emails, reply to sender opens a new window, instead of just putting sender's name in to box.? Is this me or the way it's set up?

The footer reply link is a fairly straightforward mailto:. Whether such a link opens in a new window depends on the settings of your PC/email client.

So I click on reply, then reply to sender?

Even though it says [email protected]?that is fine??

Look in the MESSAGE FOOTER. Is there a "reply to sender" link there? If so, use that.

If not, your group settings are wrong. Go fix them according to the instructions that I already provided.

I am having difficulty responding ONLY to the sending on posting from groups.io?

If I click on reply, it replies to the whole group.

Wayne -- "Reply to Group" is no doubt the reply-to setting of the group. This is the default when setting up a new group.

If I click on the stack of bars to the right of that, then click on reply to sender, it still replies to all.

I'm struggling to make sense of this one. Are you talking about your own email client? If so, you didn't tell us what software you are using.

Have I missed a setting in the group or not understanding how to reply?

Online instructions:? Just click Reply, then look for a "Private" button at the bottom right of the editor window. Click on that button to toggle between "reply to group" and "reply to sender." It may appear to be "greyed out" and inactive, but it works.

Email Client Instructions: Click on the "reply to sender" button in the message footer, or simply Forward the message to the sender's email address instead of using the Reply function.

If this button (or footer link) does not appear at all, go to Admin>Settings>Messages Policies and UNcheck the box that says "Remove Other Reply Options." Be sure to save your changes. At that point the footer link should begin to show up on any subsequent group messages you receive.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

Fabien,

Following on from Bruce's comment. An option I've considered (and briefly tested) is to set up a 'paypal.me' link. This would allow you to paste a link in to your Wiki page (e.g. put a pic in the page, select it and insert URL link) which when clicked will take the clickee to the 'pay' page. Seems to work ok.

Word of warning; something I missed, and evidently many others, is that you only get one choice of 'paypal.me' name per paypal account, so choose wisely if you want to use it for something else in future. Once chosen, it?cannot be changed or aliased.

I have the same problem (see below).

I could imagine, that a part of the cause is that my groups.io account runs in my private mail account "...@...". But I am send this mail (with my private from-address) from the office, where I use the mailserver "smtp.my-office-domain.com". So the from address and the address of the delivering mailserver is different. At least I don't have the problem when sending the mails from my home.

I know that the error message reports a different problem, but it would not be the first time, that an error message does not report the original cause, but a follow up problem.

Joe,

Do have a question: In the pink section at the top of that window,
there is something about [email protected]
What is that?

It is a user that needs to be invited to your Yahoo group, and then promoted to Moderator. That moderator position is how Groups.io gains access to your Yahoo Group's content.

I absolutely do not understand. Obviously.

Stay Calm
Don't Panic
Just Follow the Instructions

Have a read through GMF's wiki article. It has step-by-step details and screen shots which should substantially clarify matters for you:
/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Transfer-from-Yahoo-Groups

Let us know if there's anything in that article that needs clarification.
