Re: yG Privacy Dashboard download #yahooprivacydashboard #ioimportpl

 

But when I logged in and got to the download page:

Your Yahoo Groups data

Your download request has been completed, but no data of this type is available in your account.

Well I went ahead and deleted the transfer request, started a new one and sent a new invite.
I hope this works this time.

A bit more information please...

  • When you say you created a Group was this in relation to a planned migration from a Yahoo group or was it done just to create a new group?
  • Were you already a Groups.io Account holder or did you set up an account as part of setting up a new group?
  • Was the email address you used as the one to set up the new group the same as that to which you inadvertently sent an invitation?
  • What "evidence" is there that you are no longer the owner of the new group?
  • Before sending out the invitations to join had any other person joined (for example at your request) and been made a moderator or co - owner?
It may be that there is nothing you can do directly to remedy the situation; the only indirect route will be to email [email protected] to explain the situation and ask if someone there can make the necessary changes to restore your ownership.?

I am having that exact issue myself in not being able to log in on Yahoo.

I also hope he gets it fixed as I have about 30 groups I want to update so I have it all in my databases.

Hello Duane.

That would be a great feature.? I am also working with Wilson on another issue.? I downloaded his latest PGO but it refuses to log me into Yahoo groups to even see my group.? This is despite the fact that I use Waterfox (Firefox 56) as well as Firefox (v70.0).? The problem appears to be that despite not getting the Yahoo oath message (I refuse to accept their oath so when browser presents it I say do it later which will be the sixth Tuesday of never) in the browswer PGO must be getting it.? So Wilson or his new programmer will be working on a method where PGO opens the browswer if a problem occurs (like the oath pop up) so it can be cleared and then go back to PGO.? I just hope this happens before Yahoo groups deletes everything!? At this point I can't even use PGO.? Wilson did offer to grab my groups but that is a lot of data and I would prefer to do it myself.? I have not had any luck getting Python to run on my Windows 7 box and the other 2 or 3 Github utilities seem to be Python scripts and all have said they do not work that well anyway so PGO seems to be the only game in town at this point.

Thank you.

Neither as far as I can see!

Firstly set up an "Invite" message in Admin > Settings > Member Notices. It is one of the options under Notice Type.

Then go to Admin > Invite. There is a (fixed) template Invitation To Be Sent as the first item on that page, followed by Customize Message. At the bottom of that section (above Emails) is a box called --Notices-- with a drop - down arrow at its right hand end. Use that drop down to add the Invite Message that you composed initially. Note that you can set up more than one Invite Message, and when you use the drop down you can pick whichever invite message is the most appropriate.

Hope that helps...

The Help page is a bit behind.? This was changed not too long ago.? For type Invite, you can set up as many as you'd like, or none.? If you have at least one, it will be in the Notices box on the Invite page in the Customize Message area and you can choose to insert it into the standard invitation.? If you have several, you can choose which one of them to use.

Erroneous "help" info (?)

 

According to the Help page, an "Invite"-type of?Member Notice can be "activated". Unlike the "Welcome" and "Pending Subscription"?notices, though, there is no "Active Message" option for my custom "Invite" notice. Apparently, all I can use it for is a place to store text to then copy and paste into an invitation screen.

Is the Help info wrong, or is my group not configured properly?

Thank you,

Re: yG Privacy Dashboard download #yahooprivacydashboard #ioimportpl

 

I made the same request around that time and received a download link today.
yG Privacy Dashboard download #yahooprivacydashboard #ioimportpl

 

The banner on yahooGroups pages links to


There I clicked "How can I keep my Yahoo Groups content?", got:
"Photos and files can be saved right from the Yahoo Groups site,
or you can download your data from the Privacy Dashboard"


On October 16 I clicked "Visit the Privacy Dashboard page", yahoo!, Groups,
the three blue dots to the right near the top,
the link to , "Email the code",
entered the code, Download.

Today (Oct 26) I got an email and downloaded a 1.4 GB file.
It contained Messages and Files from all groups I'm a member of, but no Photos.
Not only my messages, but all messages, including full email addresses,
in mbox format. Incliding GMF (76 MB zipped), YGOG, LH.
And all Files and Links.

No longer moderator or owner #addmembers

 

I think I created this problem, here are the steps I took.

1.? I created a group.
2.? I uploaded a list of members to invite.? I failed to remove my email address from that list.
3.? I was sent an invitation to the group.?
4.? I clicked on the link to accept the invitation on the website.
5.? I am no longer Owner of the group.

What can I do to get this corrected?
Re: Importing CSV Database files

 

Linda,
That was innovative idea about importing a database. It gives me something to work with. Thank you for taking the time to help me with this.
Sincere Regards,

Back when transfer was free, imported our databases.? I was then able to use that guidance to create json templates.

So, not sure that will help but may let you see certain characteristics of each cell.

Re: Transfer steps

 

OK thank you Shal. It makes sense. Yes all my other settings are fine. People are working out the kinks on their end but are finding it very easy to change their subscriptions.?
I'll work on my patience.? LOL
Thank you again!

Re: PG Offline users #pgoffline

I actually tried asking [email protected] about doing this but only got a form reply. Can you please give any details on how this worked back when you had it done?

Thank you!

Re: Need help with adding groups.io as a moderator

 

Hi

I know you got advice on the other thread, but see?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Transfer-from-Yahoo-Groups#Step-3-E28094-Promote-the-Transfer-Agent-to-moderator

You really need to follow the steps one at a time. From everything I have read, this is crucial. Step by step and be patient!

At Yahoo as a moderator or owner: Management > Manage members
Click on Joined to sort the list by date joined. Probably [email protected] will be at the top of the list.
Click on the [email protected] entry.
A window pops up.? Click on Role and set "Moderator"
Click "Save" at the bottom
